  • Today will be perfect for anyone planning on spending it in the water.  Highs will reach the upper 80s to 90°F, and there may be a few pop-up thunderstorms, so they’ll have to watch for those.  But the day sh […]

  • Yesterday saw a mix of sun and clouds with some thunderstorms thrown in the mix.  We received 0.29″ of rain in all, and none were severe.  Between the storms was some sun and it was hot and muggy.  Today won’t be […]

  • TEMPERATURES
    As happened in May 2019, this month was also topsy-turvy as the first half was warmer than the second half, mostly due to brief record heat. There were 5 consecutive days ≥80° (9th-13th), in […]

  • July started out with a relatively pleasant start after a hot, humid ending to the month of June. Bright sunny skies, temps only reaching the mid 80s ending the 4 day streak of 90 or greater highs during the last […]

  • After a brief very early morning shower (0.04″) most of Sunday was mostly sunny, a bit less hot or humid but still a rounded high temp of 90 degrees (89.9 degrees actually) that gave me a modest streak of 4 […]

  • We haven’t had any substantial rainfall now for almost a week and there are still areas of my yard that are like a sponge.  One would think that with temps in the mid to upper 80s that the ground would dry up […]

  • I got busy then crashed Friday night so I missed posting the report for Friday until now when I will combine the information with Saturday’s report into this post. I also got my grocery order on Friday and played […]

  • Yesterday was another fine day but I have to admit that it was a bit too hot for my liking.  Today will be better with our high only expected to be around 80°F.  Gradually, our lawn is drying out and the farm tr […]

  • This morning is starting out with plenty of sun and very warm temperatures.  There were some storms that popped up in our state Friday but all we managed to get was about a minute of hard sprinkles.  We’re fine w […]

  • We have one storm passing to our north at this time.  We had wind but no rain from it.   The past two days have been very warm with highs in the upper 80s.  Today is expected to be the same.  The humidity was quit […]

  • Thursday was a partly cloudy, quite hot and moderately humid day .  Clouds moved in during the late afternoon/early evening as storms moved into the area, but missed my immediate location to the west, mostly over […]
