The weather

SwampDonkey · August 22, 2017, 02:16:37 PM

Last 3 days have been mid 80's and humid. Last Thursday the woods opened up to full woods operations again. I can't figure it, we hadn't had any rain. And this weekend it was misty weather, and no real rain to amount to beans. The fire weather index , drought code and build-up index are very high here.

High noon kinda warm 80's,than into the 60's at night the last 4-5 days. I have almost 70° at 6 in the morning. Have not seen many mornings this warm this summer. Been a cool summer. Not many thunder showers this year. No warm weather to make them happen.

Same old cool and wet UP here. 5 inches of rain in the last 4 days, temps barely into the 60's the last few days, nights in the low 40's. Saying there could be patchy frost tonight. I have lots of acres of hay to try and make still, lots of acres of ground that never got planted this year, a lawn that has been so wet all summer I have tire chains on the lawn mower so I don't get stuck.

"Summer" (if you can call it that) of 2017 was a flop, hopefully 2018 will be better. :(

Absolutely gorgeous day yesterday. High was about 81 - 82F, humidity 47%. Blue sky and breeze. Didn't accomplish a thing. ;D

This is turning into the summer that never was for some of us.

chevytaHOE5674 · August 24, 2017, 11:34:25 AM

Balmy 36° this morning..... At least no frost. haha

grouch · August 24, 2017, 12:25:09 PM

73F and clear blue sky. Whichever of you Crazy Frozen Northlanders sent this cooler air, thank you!

SwampDonkey · August 24, 2017, 03:03:26 PM

58F this morning, 80 F and 44 % RH at 4:00 pm, NW breeze. A little warm on the tundra. ;D :D

chevytaHOE5674 · August 24, 2017, 08:30:40 PM

Got "warm" UP here today.... 58°. Calling for more wide spread frost tonight....

Have a wood fire going to take the damp chill out of the house. Perfect October weather.

thecfarm · August 25, 2017, 06:01:59 AM

A cool 54°.

chevytaHOE5674 · August 25, 2017, 09:54:34 AM

Cfarm was that the low or high? That is supposed to be our high today.... 34° here at the house early this morning.. Cold cold cold for August and what is supposed to be summer.

SwampDonkey · August 25, 2017, 12:16:00 PM

50F this morning, now it's 70. Nice early fall day with sunshine. 8)

thecfarm · August 25, 2017, 08:48:00 PM

chevy,that would of been 54° at 6am this morning. Was a cool day,just as SwampDonkey had.

chevytaHOE5674 · August 25, 2017, 08:55:29 PM

54° at 6am would be a toasty warm morning..... :-\ Shorts and T-shirt weather. haha

Chuck White · August 26, 2017, 10:10:01 AM

Only 40°f here this morning!

The leaves are just starting to turn!

The squirrels are starting to "cut" and haul Walnuts in the backyard!

Won't be long before the first freeze hits!

Ljohnsaw · August 26, 2017, 10:50:02 AM

About 70° this morning, heading up to 100-102° today through Tuesday :-\

Ox · August 26, 2017, 04:36:45 PM

I can't believe it's still August and I'm having to heat my house in the mornings... 62 in the house this morning! It's good for sleeping but not for waking.

SwampDonkey · August 26, 2017, 05:17:19 PM

I've never turned the heat on before the 3rd week of September. I only keep the house around 68 in winter with the heat pump. I can heat it more, but don't need to. That temp will change in the new house with a wood burning furnace. ;D

chevytaHOE5674 · August 26, 2017, 07:26:42 PM

Swamp that's because you live in the tropics. High temp today was 55° after a low of 37° this am. Add to that a 30mph cold north wind and rain it's a furnace kind of day.

SwampDonkey · August 27, 2017, 03:32:29 AM

Been seeing my breath the last few mornings. Your high temps tell me that my very un-August weather will leave with hurricane Harvey.

thecfarm · August 28, 2017, 06:33:22 AM

No breathing seeing here,yet.
I have not seen 40's on my thermometer,yet. ;D
I have 50° this morning. I had to wear a sweatshirt yesterday morning. And I was shoveling dirt too. But does warm up quick,so far.
Kinda on the dry side.
As my Father use to say,we could use some rain. But I hope it remembers to stop.
