MT Declares Drought Emergency "HELENA, Mont. — Gov. Greg Gianforte has declared a statewide drought emergency as more than 92% of Montana faces abnormally dry conditions. The declaration issued Thursday directs the state departments of agriculture, livestock, natural resources and conservation to work with the U.S. Department of Agriculture to secure federal funding to address the fallout. The order also suspends some regulations for motor vehicles providing drought-related support. A report released by the state Wednesday predicts drought conditions will worsen in the next two months. Drought metrics are significantly worse than they were at this time last year, when just under half of the state confronted similar dryness. The following was sent out by the Office of Governor Gianforte: Governor Greg Gianforte today issued an executive order declaring a statewide drought emergency in Montana. “Every region of the state faces severe to extreme drought conditions, and the situation is getting worse. These alarming drought conditions are devastating our ag producers, challenging our tourism industry, and could bring a severe wildfire season,” Gov. Gianforte said. “This emergency order makes available all necessary state government resources to mitigate the impacts of this drought and protect Montanans.” Executive Order 11-2021 directs the Departments of Agriculture, Livestock, and Natural Resources and Conservation to provide maximum assistance to the U.S. Department of Agriculture on drought-related activities to secure timely economic assistance from the federal government. It also suspends regulations for motor carriers and persons operating commercial vehicles while they provide direct drought-related support. According to data in the Summer 2021 Montana Drought Forecast Report released yesterday, the U.S. Drought Monitor indicates approximately 91 percent of Montana faces abnormally dry to extreme drought conditions as of June 22. Drought conditions at this point in 2021 are substantially worse than at the same time last year when approximately 52 percent of the state confronted similar conditions. The July forecast projects below-normal precipitation throughout the state and a 40 to 50 percent chance of above-normal temperatures across much of Montana. The governor’s executive order declaring a statewide drought emergency is effective immediately and can be viewed here." https://nbcmontana.com/news/local/gianforte-declares-drought-emergencyI guess showering is now out in MT, you guys better stay away.

Better to keep water than send it to California so they can dump it in the ocean.

At the top of Marius pass south of glacier park is spot where you can pee in circle and hit three watersheds , flathead -> Columbia to the Pacific, The Missouri to the gulf, and Canada to the Hudson bay.  So all you fugers downstream enjoy!

It surely looks dry to the east, like Alzeda.... Drought observations. SE Idaho dry as Hell's half acre. N Central Colorado - verdant. Ponds overflowing. Tall green grass in abundance. It appears to make Denver expand northward. Central Northern AZ. Nearly half of the juniper is red at 6000'. It's a dry heat. Phoenix. Pavementy with patches of concrete.

Bought some net wrap from a friend this morning. He is selling half his herd to a rancher in Colorado. We cant produce or buy enough forage to winter our livestock up here.

Thought you asked what you smelled like. We're in a drought too. If not there, our section of the Modoc is heading towards "exception" soon. So, every once in awhile a shower gets forgotten so I can water the taters an scheidt. I may not smell like "depends", prolly closer to "livestock".

Was up at Haugan this week. Monday and Tuesday it was over 100, but still green and a lot more water in the creeks and rivers than on the east side. I did go through a hellatious storm west of Simms though last Thursday.
