A year ago, we were dealing with the DRIEST last 30 days in the last 100 years. Quite a change, no? Northeastern and southwestern OK are still unusually dry, however. #okwx # okmesonet

We get so many questions on water testing. Where do I get my drinking water tested? Where do I get my livestock or irrigation water tested? How often should I get my water tested? View the answers and explore more on our updated FAQ webpage. water.okstate.edu/publicatio…

#Didyouknow that your lawn’s roots grow deeper if your grass is longer? Set your mower on the highest setting to keep your lawn longer. Longer grass soaks up water, takes in nutrients and withstands hot spells better. Learn more in our recent webinar: bit.ly/3G6X3Zp.

It may seem like we've had enough rain to pull us out of drought, but almost 77% of the state is still abnormally dry or worse with 36% in moderate drought or worse. Visit drought.ok.gov for more drought links.
We now have more than 30 years of water quality & quantity data available through our public facing portal at data-owrb.aquaticinformatics…. Download the data or use the analysis tools to look at trends, seasonality, range, relationships, & more!
OWRB staff collected Redfin Darters in the James Fork river in eastern OK. These fish and several others found at the site indicate good water quality. Fish, macroinvertebrates, and water sample analyses are used by the OWRB to determine the health of OK streams.

Forget the calendar, this is as big of a threat as anything else we've seen this spring. Know your safety plan, have at least 2 ways to get warnings, and get those junebugs out of your storm shelters! #okwx #okmesonet

With the panhandle running at 231% of average rainfall over the past month, there's a lot more green on the landscape than there's been in a long time! This shot was taken from Beaver, OK today! #okwx #okmesonet
