Okay now I'm confused, I'm up in the red part of that map too but our berms are green rather than their usual brown.

To be fair I was away from te Tai Tokerau for most of the summer so maybe I'd have noticed more if I'd been here.

Huh, strange. I haven't noticed conditions this bad since a drought on waiheke around 2012/13.

Maybe I'm in a rainshadow. Will have to get someone to take me on a drive. Not that many black crickets this year either.

I really hope the drought breaks for you.

My wife hates the crickets with a passion! Luckily our chickens are very adept at eating them.

I love watching chooks chase crickets and grasshoppers.
