We need some rain badly. Farmers are getting their fields planted, and it is so dry that they are leaving clouds of dust behind their tractors as they work. We have a chance of rain tonight and Sunday, and I’m hoping that it happens. Today is hot with a moderate breeze. That’s the only thing that makes it bearable. Also the humidity isn’t really too bad. Our high today could reach 90F which is about 20 degrees above average. This…
I’m usually melting when temps get over 80F, but today is actually quite comfortable. It’s probably because the humidity is so low. We had clouds most of the day and that makes it feel cooler. Now the sun is peeking out. We received a letter from our power company that they will be charging more for electricity that we use during the day. So we have tried to think of a system where the AC won’t be running constantly. We…
Our weather has taken a turn for very warm. Summer-like temperatures will be upon us into the near future. Predictions are for unseasonably hot weather for the upcoming week and into the holiday weekend. We’ll be going up to the campground next week, so that’s a very welcome forecast. Fortunately, with the heat comes a very slight chance of rain which is badly needed. No great amounts are expected however. Our 9:45 AM temp is 68F (20C), the humidity is…
We have a thin layer of clouds this morning but not enough to hide the sun. Today should be wonderful weather-wise with temps reaching a comfortable level in the mid 70s. Winds aren’t expected to be strong so it will be great for getting out and about. There is no rain in the forecast until Wednesday and we really could use some. Our 9:15 AM temp is 66°F (19°C), the humidity is 57%, and winds are from the SE at…
After a beautiful Saturday, our Sunday is a bit cooler with a little rain. The showers are supposed to be done by this afternoon and radar is still showing some small pockets of light rain scattered about. Highs probably won’t even reach 70 today, but if the sun comes out later, it will still be a nice day. We really do need the rain and I wish we would get more than a few sprinkles. Our 12 noon temperature is…
Today is what we’ve been waiting for. Warm, sunny, and light breezes. This should be the norm for the next 3-4 days with each day getting a little warmer. I love it. Most of the leaves are now out full and just a few trees are lagging behind. It’s great having it be light until 9 PM once again and an early rising sun makes it much easier to get up in the morning. I’m hoping that we have no…
We finally have a day that seems like mid May with plenty of sun, light breezes, and just a few scattered clouds. Although the temperature is only in the low 60s, it feels much warmer with the sun. The remainder of this week is supposed to be just as nice with temperatures increasing a little each day. Now this is more like it! No complaints here. Our 2:30 pm temp is 62°F (17°C), the humidity is 31% and skies are…
This morning, like yesterday, began with clear skies but now clouds have overtaken most of it. We are still getting a few glimpses of the sun, but not enough to make up for the cold wind. Tomorrow should start seeing some improvement, and temps should be back up in the 70s by the weekend. This is the time of year where we should be able to sit outdoors and enjoy all the nature has to give, but most of that…
After all the warm weather that we had in April, this cold weather is really annoying. It certainly doesn’t feel like May. This morning began with clear skies and sun, but once again the clouds have taken over and I’m seeing some spotty showers appearing on the radar, mainly in the west side of the state. Normal temps should be back later this week and into the weekend. I hope it stays this time. Our 11:45 AM temp is 47°F…
Our beautiful warm weather has left us for a spell, and it doesn’t look like it will return before next weekend. I even saw a few raindrops on my windshield this morning as I returned from church. On the positive side, there is hardly any wind. Radar is showing a large mass of rain over the southern portions of the state but it doesn’t appear to be heading this way. All my kids were here for the weekend and we…
