Mother Nature is mixing it up this week! Recent moisture has softened the ground , making it excellent for gardens and lawns to flourish but potentially tricky for our heavier landscaping equipment.

Current soil temperatures around 51°F at 2 inches deep are ideal for healthy grass and garden growth. We're anticipating a mix of sunny skies and scattered showers, leading to lush but occasionally muddy landscapes.

This week may start a bit slower due to wet conditions, so if you're on the schedule, we kindly ask for your patience as we navigate these scheduling challenges . Our best window for productive outdoor work looks to be Thursday through Saturday, before rain returns on Sunday.

Weekly Terrain Conditions

Soil moisture will peak on Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday due to frequent precipitation, making the terrain softer, muddier, and more susceptible to damage from heavier equipment.

However, sunnier and drier conditions Thursday through Saturday will significantly reduce soil wetness, improving ground stability and providing safer, more effective conditions for landscaping tasks. The accompanying graphic clearly shows how these wetness levels vary day-to-day, guiding our operational decisions to ensure the best care for your landscape.

Forecast This Week

🌧️ Monday, April 28: Expect morning showers mixed with light snow, totaling around ¼ inch. Conditions will be wet and slippery through early afternoon, improving slightly by late day.

⛅ Tuesday: Clouds begin to clear early, offering mild temperatures in the upper 50s°F by afternoon. Grounds may still be damp, slowing drying efforts slightly.

🌧️ Wednesday: Showers are likely by mid-morning, with approximately 0.2 inches of rain anticipated. Winds remain gentle at around 5-10 mph, but grounds will remain soft.

☀️ Thursday: Sunny skies dominate throughout the day with gentle breezes. Afternoon temperatures near 60°F will help significantly in drying out the landscape.

☀️ Friday: Clear, sunny weather continues, with mild conditions around the low 60s°F. Perfect drying and working conditions prevail throughout the day.

🌤️ Saturday: Expect partly cloudy skies, comfortable temperatures around mid-60s°F, and gentle winds. A good balance of drying conditions and working comfort.
