We have had a few days of really nice weather. One thunder storm, but we got the blessing of a little rain. It is supposed to be 100 today, and only hotter for the next few days.

It is prepping for some hot times, near 100's, and maybe even a thunderstorm. We don't need any lightning strikes because the grass is so dry that a fire could be deadly. It's the kind of weather that I need to get out early in the morning while it is cool and do my garden work.

It is hot again today. We had a thunderstorm last night, but went around us. It started a fire between here and Boise, some homes threatened. The wind was gusting in several directions, but they were mopping up this morning, and no on was burned out. We try to get our work done in the morning, then seem to sleep all afternoon. Bad habit to get into.

We had a really nice weekend for the end of July. It has been sunny with puffy white clouds, little breeze, and not too hot. Very unusual for this time of year. I went for a bike ride this evening along the river. The corn is doing well, considering it got planted late due to a rainy spring.

Hot and humid. When you walk out the door in the morning it feels like the air is sticking to your skin. But I guess it's kind of like a warm hug.

It has cooled off today, finally. It has been way too hot, for too long. We dodged the bullet last night, we had a fast moving thunder storm go right over the house. We saw lightening and heard thunder at exactly the same time. There were 4 strikes right over us, and then it moved on. No rain fell, but we didn't get any fires. It was way too close.

Rain all day, but that annoying misting of rain, not a full force rain

It is still hot, but not 100, so it is better. The breeze has been nice. We are still under threat of thunder showers later in the week. A little rain would be nice.

Today was a beautiful day--it felt more like September than August. This is usually our hottest month but it's been cooler than normal this summer. I just took Jaxon for a walk and I could have worn a light jacket. Perfect for camping. Just an all-around beautiful day.

It's ch-ch-ch-chilly here in Pittsburgh! When I woke up this morning, it was only 40 degrees!!! I had to wear layers to take my son to work - including my comfy sweatshirt! We've had tons of rain this summer and the cool of autumn has been creeping in for the past couple of weeks! The birds are already getting fat and fluffy for winter, and my garden is all confused; some plants are already dying back (although the cool weather crops are thriving!). And my poor hubby just said yesterday he is thinking of just giving up and closing up the pool because we haven't been able to use it for weeks due to the cooler weather and storms! I keep telling him that, as is true every year, as soon as he's done closing it up we'll end up getting a long run of hot weather, but he's so disheartened, he is really struggling with his options. I'm sad we didn't get a lot of tomatoes, <although the ones we HAVE gotten are the best I've ever had (Thank you, Seedsavers Exchange!)>, but everything else out there seems to be rejuvenated and thriving. It's all good, though - I'm happy! If this weather will stay cool, that's A-OK with me! I'm SO ready for fall!
Hugs -

It is hot here again, I can't remember the day of my last post when I said it had cooled off. It feels like it has been hot forever. We have had a few thunder storms, not many, and they passed over us, with no lightning strikes close. There are several big lightning fires east of us. Bad ones. We are getting used to this siesta thing, every afternoon.

Just got back from a long walk. It is hot and I'm dripping wet and just had a shower and need another. There is yard work to be done and I don't feel like doing it and probably won't until it cools down this evening. Top it all off--it's only 70-some degrees out. Go figure. Other than that, the sun is shining and it is beautiful outside.

| We had another HABOOB here in Phoenix, AZ yesterday. Thank goodness I was indoors. I was at a meeting with my quilting group in the Church's community room when it hit. I am lucky I get the weather alerts from DPS (Dept. of Public Safty) on my cellphone. I received 2 while driving to the meeting. The HABOOB (massive dust storm) was so bad, that they asked everyone to stay off the street and not drive if possible. Looking out of the community room window, I could not see the tree 5 " away. Then the rain came, in some parts of the valley the rain was coming down sideways. Kinds of scary. Now we get to clean up from the storm. We have tree limbs down all over the valley. |

Sorry to hear of your dust storm, Kammi. I hope no lives were lost. Hubby and I were truly amazed by the program about the dust storms done by Ken Burns. Scary and I know that a lot of knowledge about farming has been learned to prevent some of the damage done then, but these storms still come and find dust. I will say prayers for all of your affected by this. Please let us know if any help is needed. Here in the NW, there is nothing to complain about. Our summer has been mild, garden is growing. We are blessed being here. You get used to the rain. It helps everything grow here, we're green!
Take care.

It's a beautiful summer day here in Northern MI. The sun keeps coming out and the humidity is down compared to what it has been lately! It's a nice 77 degrees here and there is a wonderful breeze. Perfect weather for sitting on the deck in my rocking chair with a cup of tea! Have a great day everyone!

Nini: could you send the fold weather down South? It got to 101. Hot.

Still hot here in SW Idaho. In the 90's today, but overcast. The weather men are predicting thunder storms, with rain, and a chance of flash floods, of course. We did have a fire a week ago started by lightning. It hit a patch of sage brush about a 1/4 mile from our house. The flames were shooting 40 feet in the air, but then we had a 3 minute rain storm, which knocked the fire down, long enough for the fire fighters to get here, in record time, I might add. We were filling our spray rig with water when the trucks arrived. Thank heaven. Maybe we will just a get nice gentle rain to soften the parched earth and dry grass. Maybe it will last a day or two. Could happen.

It happened, we were blessed with 3 days of showers, ending in a really good rain. The big destructive storms that hit SW Idaho skirted around us, just giving us the wonderful rain.
