Conditions across the Inland Northwest continue to be drier than normal. For the first half of June, only 0.15 inches of rain has fallen at Cliff Harris’s station in Coeur d’Alene with 0.18 inches in Spokane. The normal June precipitation for Coeur d’Alene is 1.93 inches, and based on the long-term forecast charts, it looks like another month with below normal precipitation.
The dry and windy weather across the region last week helped to spread a disastrous fire in the Spokane area. As of the weekend, 15 homes in Spokane were heavily damaged or destroyed by Upriver River in the Beacon Hill and Northwood area of Spokane.
