A Respite From The Heat . . . .

I hope that everyone is having a good holiday weekend.  The past two days have been stormy, which is not a good scenario for campers.  Most have been high winds but no tornadoes.  Highs have been in the upper 80s to lower 90s, with high humidity and dew points.  We finally have a break today although the humidity will still be high.

Dangerous Heat Is Upon Us . . . .

Dangerous Heat Is Upon Us . . . .

It is like an oven outdoors and the only thing making it bearable is that we have a breeze.  It doesn’t help much when temperatures are in the  90s.  In fact, some local forecasters are saying that some areas could reach 100°F.  Also, there is always a chance for a popup storm, although rain is not in our forecast today. Our 12:30 PM temperature is 98°F, the humidity is 65%, and winds are from the SW at 5-11 mph.  The…

Our 11:30 AM temperature is 68°F, the humidity is 83%, and winds are from the SW at 3-5 mph.  The pressure is 29.86 in and steady.  The dew point is 61°F and visibility…
