Our conservation team recorded nearly nine inches of rain in August, which is roughly seven percent below our average for August rainfall.

Last year, our summer wet season was very wet, but we dried down on the early side and refilled quickly—in mid-June. 

In 2025, we had a dry spring and early summer. The swamp finally started to refill in mid-July.

The average annual peak water level is reached on September 18. The vegetation has responded to these drier conditions —alligator flag is especially taking advantage.
