We have not enough rain. I know that without any app. Because always, when the traditional magnolia bloom in northern Alsace, it rains a lot. The splendour often lasts only a few days.
Now we've only had grey, dry days. Wonderful to see the flowers. But bad for the drying soil.
If you connect nature's calendar with "traditional" remembered weather you can see the shift: cronenburg.net/magic/

白木蓮 [Hakumokuren]
Magnolia denudata

白木蓮󠄄の花󠄄が咲󠄃いた、
帝王のやうなほこらしい花󠄄だ、
聖󠄃者のやうな力ある花󠄄だ。
この花󠄄が咲󠄃く每に
この木をこの庭に植えていつた人を思ひ 出す。

The flowers of Hakumokuren have bloomed,
it is a proud flower like an emperor,
it is a powerful flower like a saint.
Every time this flower blooms,
I remember the person who planted this tree in this garden.
