It is in the low 70's here in SW Louisiana. It is raining, gloomy looking, foggy, and humid.
I thought I would be able to work outside today. Oh well... I do plan to take a long walk; rain or not!

We are ok only a few branches down. Our daughters have many trees down all over
Lots of clean up and no power. It was a Derecho storm similar to a hurricane. Strange to have that kind of storm in Iowa. It destroyed most of the corn crop in this area. Governor declared many counties a disaster. Many roads closed as there are power lines down.

Still sunny and nice and we need rain. Watered the garden two days ago and found it interesting that, while weeding yesterday, the beds were pretty damp. I didn't think I watered that much. Fifty percent chance of storms tomorrow. We haven't had strong storms here in years. Odd. Blobs of weather tend to split just south of us and leave us with no precip while neighboring cities get deluged. |

In SW Michigan it has been so cool that it's too chilly to get in the pool! Thermometer says 84 but it feels more like a beautiful fall day. Hot in the sun. Have sun tea going on the deck. We need rain... |

Woke at 6 a.m. to thunderstorms. It hasn't stopped raining or thundering and it's now 10 a.m. So dark my two dusk to dawn lights are still on. Great weather but odd for August.

Just came from sitting on the back deck with Annie. Hard to believe it's the 4th of Aug in Texas and it's only 85 with a cool breeze. I enjoyed every minute I was out there. So thankful for little miracles like cool weather in August. Hopefully we'll get more days like today.

It is 94 degrees and semi-overcast. Humidity is 14%. The wind is blowing a bit and we have a fire warning. I wouldn't want to have to work outside at all.

Today was the only day this week with low humidity. I took advantage and went for a walk. Tomorrow is a weather alert day - upper 90's plus with the heat index.

Earlier Annie and I sat on the side porch and it was pleasant as long as there was a breeze but when it wasn't it got warm & muggy quickly. 78 so far this morning with humidity of 93 - a good day to stay in

Getting in the triple digits. Today is another one. Only 95 yesterday. Too hot to work in the garden, but lovely in the morning. Lots of hand watering.

Hot, humid and thunderstorm warnings. We got 1-3/4" of rain on Sunday. Plus another 1/2" yesterday. We don't need any more for quite awhile!

That warning was a bust for me. We hardly had any wind, no rain and no hail. But I do appreciate the warning just in case it did occur. I am just getting my garden in, Grace, and it is going to be so very late this year. Will probably get tomatoes and that is it.

Betty, yep,, we are on alert,, 40-50mph winds, golf ball size hail..
We just broke down camp, put both trailers in the barn, then took down all patio furniture and lawn deco and tucked everything into the garage.. vehicles secured in the garage and our kitty is in..
we keep getting Alerts about every 15min... this is not the norm for Spokane.
As for my garden,, well if it does hail I will loose everything.. oh well.. gardens can be started over...
Betty stay safe and hunkered down.

We are living under a severe storm warning for thunder and lightning and rain. We have 15-20 mph winds. They are also forecasting for the possibility of hail. That will wreak havoc with my garden. That and the fact that it is 86 degrees and mostly overcast. Humid too.
