  • We may see some rain tomorrow, but only a slight chance.  We could see a little rain this weekend and into next week.  I’m seeing some severe weather on the forecast map which is moving our way, but we’ll h […]

    We haven’t had any rain now in almost 2 weeks and it’s getting very dry.  Also, there is none in the forecast anytime soon.  This is the type of weather that we usually get in mid summer, not in the fall.  Ou […]

  • Today will be almost the same as the past week.  There is no mention of any rain until possibly next Sunday night.  So our summer weather will continue a bit longer.  Any complaints?  I don’t think so. […]

  • We have had strong high pressure over us now for over a week, and it doesn’t show any signs of leaving anytime soon.  I’m not seeing any rain in the forecast well into next weekend.  I’m having to water my f […]

  • This weather seems to be redundant with no changes from day to day.  We still have no rain, not much wind, and very warm temperatures.  There is a bit of color now in the woods, and we see a little more each d […]

    I woke up this morning to my Midland Weather Radio “beeping” every ten minutes and saying a “Reception Lost” error message. I checked the NOAA Weather Radio Outages […]

    • Nathan, do you have any suggestions for a reasonably priced weather station? Are you familiar with the one that Ryan Hall advertises, although I really don’t want to spend that much? His is in the $300 range. Thanks.

    • Hi Cathie! Sorry I didn’t respond until now. I couldn’t see people’s comments.

      I now work for Davis Instruments since Earth Networks and Davis merged under AEM, so I’ve been doing cross-company work for Davis and Earth Networks. Our cheapest weather station is the Vantage Vue. It’s compact and pretty reliable. ScientificSales.com offers good pricing on them.

      I do have the WeatherFlow Tempest installed at my house alongside my Davis Vantage Pro 2 (which WeatherFlow is actually my competitor now). Temperature is accurate on it, and it’s useful for rain alerts, on-site lightning alerts, and powering the hourly forecast in the app. However, its rain readings are wildly inaccurate compared to my Davis and my CoCoRaHS rain gauge.

      Hope this helps!

  • Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week brought cooler temperatures and some rain to the Natural State due to Hurricane Francine, although Arkansas didn’t see near the impacts Louisiana saw. Here’s a look […]

  • Greetings everyone!  Hope you’ve had a fulfilling summer this year.  I returned to the States from southern Europe a little more than a week ago, and spent a few days recovering from jet lag and visiting family. N […]

  • We have another day just like the past week.  No rain, clear skies, light breezes, and plenty of bugs.  I think we have more bugs now than we’ve had all summer.  I guess they like the dry, warm weather.  I’m […]

  • Our nice weather continues and still no mention of rain anytime soon.  This is the longest period that we have had without rain all summer.  We have some low spots in our yard that never seem to dry out, so m […]

  • Well, it looks like ex-Hurricane Francine will be missing us entirely and I’m not complaining about that.  It has now been downgraded to a tropical storm, but not without leaving it’s mark on Louisiana and […]
