You can bet it does. Unless the ground was solid frozen and nothing got absorbed. All the rains and precips we've gotten including slow snow melt seeps down into the soil so when roots come alive they got adequate drinking water.
Also, ground moisture below surface wont evaporate fast as it does with summer temps. Should be a lush landscape once it warms up enough days.
agreed. Though if we get a long dry stretch in April it could hinder a lush May, don't think that's happening.
A bit of good news: The Storm Prediction Center has downgraded the convective outlook from "Moderate" to "Enhanced," and the chance of significant severe weather of any kind appears to be less than 10%, because there are no hashed areas on any of the probabilistic maps. It also appears that strong winds will be the biggest threat, instead of tornadoes.

Yesterday I was getting worried with some of the verbiage used by the Storm Prediction Center and various National Weather Service offices, but I don't feel quite as worried now. Hopefully they won't upgrade the next convective outlook.
More than 7 inches so far west of Alexandria. I have 3.88 inches in digital gauge right now.
