Edmunds County Tribune -

We noticed that the moon had sort of a reddish tinge Monday evening and it wasn't even quite full yet.

There are of course a number of reason why this would be true, including dust/ smoke in the air or several different pollens as well, like ragweed and mold. These allergy (hay fever) symptoms are noticeably much worse during a drought.

Hopefully we will get some relief, because rain and even a real heavy dew help to dissolve and wash those pollens away. So there are indeed several obvious reasons we could use the moisture, but hopefully not accompanied by a damaging thunderstorm. The sunsets aren’t too shabby either!

July is moving along quite quickly as you might have noticed!
