It's 10am and already 73.....slight overcast.....headed to 93 today with chance of thundershowers. We could use some rain but looks like everyone that is getting rain lately have had to deal with flooding. We could do without that! :)
Hope everyone has a wonderful day....despite the weather!!
My best to all, Mel

It's raining again today and temps are in the high 50's. Plans to work outside are put again on the back burner.

Yesterday it was 91, supposed to be near 90 today. We had 3 days of rain a week or so ago, not lots, but very welcome. It hailed one of those days and I am so thankful for the little hoop house/greenhouse covering my tomatoes. This is haying weather and that is just what we are doing. All our grass hay is cut, we will wait on the oat hay. DH is baling right now.

Cool today in the Texas Hill Country. The wind has surely been an adjustment for us! It rained a little this morning Marly

Marly, I had a friend who lived where the wind really blew all the time. I asked her if she ever got used to it, she was from West Texas originally, she said the only time she noticed it was when it didn't blow. I don't know if I ever could get used to wind all the time. We have had wind lately, but not all the time, mostly in the evenings. It is warm again today, and supposed to get warmer the first of the week.

It is supposed to reach 88°F today and be bright and shiny. For me, this is getting warm. The garden loves it and I do need to get the hose running on it and the flower bed. Got my plants in late and the beans seem to be barely thriving. Most of them never came up. It doesn't seem that the soil is too cold, but maybe something is eating the seeds. Will try and replant some of the bare spots today. Volunteer zucchini are doing very well as are my potato plants which are blooming.

Jennie Lyn, today there wasn't much wind. Back in SW Louisiana, lots of wind was associated with a coming hurricane! Hugs Marly

We are back in SW Louisiana for a week. The humidity is so high. Mosquitoes are out big time. Temperatures are in the 90s. Marly

It was in the 90' a couple of days ago, while we were putting up hay of course, but yesterday and today are much cooler. We had a little rain in the night last night, not much, but enough get the ground wet. It is partly cloudy and stormy looking, but nothing so far today.

Finally a day without rain. We had quite a flood here recently. All my plants are doing well. It was warm today but hey--no rain! Cindy

Oh, we got rain last night and today. Wonderful, wonderful rain. Enough to make our oats fill, and keep the grass on the north slopes growing a little while longer. A real blessing.

On June 8th I said it was supposed to reach 88°F in the Tri-Cities. I think it got to 90. Today it is overcast and rainy and about 66°F. Strange weather this year and it is causing the garden to fluctuate wildly.

Hi Sisters, We are bracing for a big heat wave! It is already in the triple digits here (we take walks at 10 pm at night and it is still 98 degrees). This weekend and beyond we are suppose to get to 112 to 115! That is just crazy . I am hoping for a decent monsoon this year as we haven't had them like in past years. It use to pour rain, and thunder and lightning in the summer. I miss a good t-storm. Now you know why my new sun oven is such a great useful gift! I get tired of salads all summer long, and have already eaten my fair share of watermelon and it is only June. Take care now, Annie

Remember when I was dreaming about the sweet scent of rain on sagebrush? Well we have had a truly wonderful 3 day rain. Just a gentle, sink into the earth, rain. Today the air smells sweet and clean. Hot weather is coming, supposed to be over 100 by Friday.

It poured rain yesterday morning and it was wonderful. Today is supposed to be overcast and in the 70's. Saturday, however, we are supposed to have temps over 100. Now that's a change!

Annie,
We are also getting ready for the heat wave here. Friday 's predicted high in Phoenix ranges from 119 to 121. 122 is the highest temperature ever recorded here. I am preparing for the heat like I would for a blizzard....ran my errand, bought groceries and pet food. Other than going out very early to water the garden, I plan to spend the weekend inside, hiding form the heat.

It will be over 100 today again. The sun goes down here at the ranch about 7 in the evening, so we try to do outside work then. I mowed lawn this morning, and we will wait until evening to pick up hay. Prayers for everyone dealing with this extreme heat. I just heard about the hot shot crew in the Southwest losing their lives in a wild fire. What a horrible thing.

Cool, raining at the moment. Unusual temperatures for us this time of year. I'm really enjoying it.

Now we have some dead birds in our yard from the heat wave. They look like tree swallows. Poor little souls didn't stand a chance. Annie

We just started with another storm...but I'm not complaining. After watching drought after drought get worse over the past 5 years and not being able to water the garden, needing to water people and livestock, it's nice to not be worrying about it. I hope the balance of nice cooler weather and intermittent rain continues through the summer. I may just get actual veggies put up this year. Smiling & Waving, Sharon

Here in the Texas Hill Country we have had two days of cool weather. It is 78 degrees right now. Perfect to work and play outside. Marly

It is miserable here. I went out this morning and pulled some weeds and watered my container plants and did the same this afternoon. It was 106°F when I went out just a bit ago. Miserable weather and won't be any better until the weekend. I'm hoping most folks don't mess with the fireworks because with all the rain we've had, the cheat grass has grown high and is now suffering from lack of water. What a fire danger that is.

Stormy today. Flooded my basement...Annoying, but I think it didn't get warmer than 75! First day of July, kinda crazy. Usually we are looking at about 95, bright sun, and oppressive humidity,

Yesterday it was 110 in Boise. Maybe 108 here on the mountain. Too hot. We worked outside for a while last evening, will try to pick up hay tonight after it cools a little.

Here in the Tri-Cities it was 106 deg and HOT. Today supposed to be 109 deg. My lawn needs to be mowed, but I'm not doing it today, maybe tomorrow. Turned my AC up to 80 and that's pretty much where it will stay unless I get really uncomfortable and then will drop it a couple of degrees.
