This morning has been a mix of clouds and sun. It looked like we were in for a good storm, but it managed to slide just to our south and east. The threat of storms remain in our forecast and we could actually use a little rain. These hot temps really dry things out. The grass isn’t growing quite as fast and that’s good thing. Our 11 AM temperature is 74.5°F (23°C), the humidity is 60%, and winds are from…
Although our morning is sunny, there is a line of thunderstorms approaching from the northwest. I’m not sure if they will hold together considering that our humidity is quite low, but they have continued through the overnight. I guess we’ll find out in a few hours. The temperature didn’t fall much overnight with steady temps in the low 70s. It did make it up to 90° yesterday, and probably will again today. The next few days should be a little…
We can expect our temps today to be unseasonably warm with our high near 90°F. Last night was very warm with the low never falling much below 70°F. Skies were clear all day and the humidity was quite low, so it really wasn’t too uncomfortable. I normally don’t like it this hot, but as long as the air is dry, I can tolerate it. There was a nice breeze which was welcome, and it continued all night long. Our 9:45…
Yesterday was a gorgeous day with clear skies, light breezes, low humidity, and temps in the 70s. In fact, it was perfect in my book. I got a lot done, getting screens on the rest of my windows, and the rest of my flowers planted. Today will be much the same but a little warmer. As long as there is a breeze and the humidity is low, I won’t complain. Our 9 AM temp is 64°F (17°C), the humidity is…
It will finally start to feel like summer today, after below normal temps over the last few days. Highs near 90° are expected early next week and many will welcome it. As for me, that’s a bit too warm for my liking. Our weather issue this year has been the wind. I don’t ever remember a year in the past where we have had 20-30 mph winds almost every day. We’ll be heading north in the few weeks to the…
This blog is getting done a bit late today because I was at work this morning. Our temps are a bit cool for this time of year but I’m seeing some very hot weather in our extended forecast. It seems to always go from one extreme to the other. Why can’t we just stay in the 70s. That would make me very happy. Right now (4:30 PM), our temperature is 67.3°F (18°C), the humidity is 56%, and skies are partly…
This morning is very mild after a line of showers and thunderstorms moved over the state overnight from the northwest. They didn’t reach us until 6:30 this morning, and all that that remained were some light showers. There was only 0.09″ in my gauge at 8:30 AM. Radar is still showing some scattered areas of rain but this is expected to end later this afternoon. Our 9:15 AM temp is 64°F, the humidity is 85%, and skies are cloudy. The…
Today is beginning with mostly clear skies, cool temperatures, and there is a slight chance of rain later in the day. I love the month of June. Everything seems so green and fresh, Nature hasn’t been affected yet by molds, fungus, and heat. The evenings are very quiet with an occasional sound of a bird or a barking dog. Even the frogs have quieted down. With all the rain that we have had this spring, I can’t believe that the…
Today is the first day of summer, meteorlogically speaking, and it looks like it will be a good one. There is no rain expected and decreased winds from what we have been having. It’ll be a good day for finishing my planting even though my back is still very sore. I’m still having problems with this new site. I tried to add a picture and it still isn’t happening. I don’t know what I did wrong. Maybe I need step-by-step…
Hello to everyone from Weatherbug Backyard. It will seem great to hear from all of you again. This is my first post on Weatherquack, and am still trying to figure it out. I haven’t found how to add pictures, but I’m sure that someone can enlighten me. This has been yet another very windy day. I just received a post on Facebook from local meteorologist, Mark Torragrossa, that this has been the windiest May for us in 20 year. It’s…
