Summer Tips
EWEB's Weather Station provides Weekly Watering Recommendations based on rainfall and other data, usally from May or June through September. Rainbow will repost this information on our Facebook page and website.
Watering recommendation for: July 24-30, 2026
Water your lawn and flowers: 1.14 inches for the week
If your lawn has deep roots split this into two watering days with 0.57 inches/watering.
If your lawn has shallow roots split this into three watering days with 0.38 inches/watering.
Tip of the week:
Watch where you're spraying and give your hose a break! Sweep driveways, sidewalks, and steps rather than hosing them off. And don't forget to check for leaks at your spigot connection and tighten as necessary.
