How's The Weather

Bright & Dry:teeth_smile:

The area where I live in north Texas has had non-stop rain and thunderstorms for about 6 or 8 weeks. Mind you, I'm not complaining as we ordinarily don't get nearly enough rain. All the vegetation is green and lush, and the ponds are bank full. The cattle ranchers are happy because they have plenty of good grass and lots of water for their herds. Not sure how the wheat and cotton farmers feel about all the rain though.

I told my wife that as far as our weather goes, it's usually famine or feast (meaning drought or floods). This spring we've had much more feast than famine. My only complaint is that I must constantly mow the grass as it grows overnight with all the moisture. Think I'll get a goat and tether it in the yard.

It's been kinda hot and humid for a few days but were bracing for a hell of a storm this afternoon.

Hot and humid and dry. But we are in for a change. It seems that the rain that Stumpy has been getting is heading our way. We actually have an 80% chance of rain forecast tomorrow and it is beginning to come into our state right now. Of course seeing is believing and I haven't seen this in a long time, so we'll see and I'll report tomorrow.

Cheers

Bueatifull, Beautifull, Beautiful,

HOT and VERY HUMID today.

Well, it started out to be humid this morning, and a little rain, then the sun came out and OW! It played a little throughout the morning until it did a pretty good rain around the lunch time. Then it just sprinkled throughout the afternoon. We were around the mid 80's in the morning until the rain came and then went to the 70's. All in all we got about a half inch of the wet stuff which is more than we had for the past month and a half all together. Might get some more this evening. I guess it's better than not getting none. It's leaving and we're going to get hot, humid, and dry for the next few days. Not a drought buster, but it did help.

Cheers

Had a band of thunderstorms blow through yesterday morning with high winds and heavy rain for about 20 minutes, then moderate to light rain through the rest of the afternoon.
The weatherman said it was some kind of major system that changed our weather pattern for the next several days with rain in the forcast through Saturday.

We went from crazy hot last week to unseasonably cool a couple of days ago . . . the sun never came out and the day's high was 72º F.

But the sun is out again, so we should approach 90 today, with our very favorable overnight lows in the upper forties and low fifties.

Heh heh, lets send some relief toward Dakota's place :-))

This morning bout 7 am we had a short thunderstorm. Not sure how much rain--but by the time I got up to feed the cats, it was already steamy and sunney and only a few puddles to be seen. However, around 11 or so, it started to look like it was going to rain but--only stayed overcast (which I love) and was noticably cooler--and for the 1st day of summer too! Now that it will soon be past us--we can start taking off 2 minutes of daylight per day YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

Mixed Up!!! Rain & Sunshine

Hot and humid and getting hotter. 94 the next couple days they are saying.

That sounds like Texas weather, Mike.

We have a saying here, "If you don't like the weather, just wait a minute".

6" of rain in the last 48 hours and it blew my APC Backup-UPS LS 700. Darn lightning!

Hot and Dry! High today 100F. High tomorrow 99F. Let's be real!

Cheers

Pretty pleasant around here the past few days - upper eighties to low nineties, but LOW humidity, so quite tolerable. I could have used a little breeze at the hot dog cart today, but overall it was pretty nice.

And we get those wonderful cool nights! We run the fans overnight, blowing cool air into the house, then shut it up tight in the morning. It's almost like the house is air-conditioned.

Finally seems to be settling down again to some fine days

It has really been a cool June around here - forcast is for scattered T-storms all through the coming week into the weekend with temps at the most near ninety (but mostly in the low to mid-eighties; high humidity however!
