A brief shower was witnessed yesterday morning around 8 AM. Temperature is just above freezing and RH is well above 50%. No flooding was observed yesterday. Clear color demarcations between natural brown grass, grass professionally treated with green color, and grass watered with sprinklers observed in a nearby residential area. Sun/shade exposure also an obvious factor in lawn grass appearance yesterday. Creeks were flowing downstream without any flooding, a few isolated areas of standing water puddles were observed. |

No flooded or dry creek beds were observed. I observed and measured 9 branches of a nearby tree with branch circumferences of 6 to 16 inches at eye level. 5 of the 9 branches had patchy crusty growths of pistachio pudding colored class Ascomycetes. Most of the growths were generally between 300 and 80 compass degrees (north/north-east) of the quasi circular branch circumferences. The tree also had some small tufts of grey hairy type growths less than 1 square inch and some sap drops on the underside of some branches. The appearance and color of the growths is not always the same throughout the year and may possibly reflect, or be affected by, air/soil moisture levels. |

The area experienced a morning thunderstorm and strong winds most all day yesterday. Quite a few small diameter twigs were observed on the ground. One immature (<1 inch long) Oligochaeta was observed in motion in a shallow puddle (~1/4" deep) of the sidewalk of a four lane road. One adult Ardea herodias was seen standing on a sandbar looking over the flowing creek waters where Ardea customarily is seen wading. Creek waters were observed flowing within their banks yesterday afternoon with some usual puddles along the riparian area and sidewalks. |

I observed two adult, lean Ardea sp. in water over their knees in Crabtree Creek. The birds did not appear to be overly exerting themselves (which indicates relatively slow currents and water well below flood stage). A drake and hen pair of puddle ducks was observed dabbling and floating in Hatcher Creek an hour later. The ducks were not overexerting and nimbly moving in different directions while afloat. Another indicator of no flooding and fair weather. |

No towers have been identified with the naked eye towards the north or west from this location. Wind and temperature were slightly different at the intersection than at the sheltered area. I observed one mid-sized Lagomorpha crouched motionless by the creek. When the Lagomorpha saw/heard me coming, two Lagomorpha casually scurried deeper into the wooded area. No flooding or frost was seen on roads or creeks. We got a strong thunderstorm storm with 2 minutes of pea sized hail last night. No signs or remnants of bad weather are apparent now. |

At observation time, the paved transportation corridor (bike/walk) was flooded with less than 3/4 inches flowing and shallow water at more than 6 locations, each more than 10 feet wide. The greater creek is within its banks at 9 AM. Over-wash originates from impervious nearby surfaces. Re distribution of sediment and organic matter not indigenous to the park indicate the waters were receding at 9 AM, and that the greater creek did flood prior to observation time. |

Rainstorm last evening. The ground apparently absorbed the moisture fairly quickly or moisture lost to evaporation because surfaces are relatively dry this morning. I did not see any hail. |

At observation time, paved surfaces were dry or damp, curbs were not draining, grass was moist/damp, and parked autos have rainwater on them. A benthic creek substrate sample of 1/4 level cup from a shaded stagnant ditch obtained prior to the shower weighed ~2.8 ounces and consisted of sand or smaller sized particles with the exception of two pebble sized particles. The overall appearance of the substrate was "sepia" colored mud. |

A brief light mist was witnessed yesterday afternoon. At several daylight observation points along the creek banks on 5/30/17 between SR 1613 and NC 54, creek water was <1 ft deep and flowing 1 kt or less downstream. In 2017, these same areas have been observed more than 5 feet deep following significant rains. |

During a 30 minute walk, I saw remnants of yesterdays rain flooding in the usual places. I was bitten by a small mosquito that led to loss of a drop or two of bright red fluid when swatted, and made tactile contact with more than three different spider webs at the level of my head/arms before I saw the webs. |

A 20 minute deluge in the midst of hours of thunderstorms prior to sunset 9/1/2017. The rain was briefly so heavy that the gutters surrounding the residence overflowed in sheets of water falling directly on the rotating fans of the heat pump and rising into the base of the heat pump unit. Hours later the water had drained away from the sidewalks and a/c unit. |
