The weather 2025

[Nebraska]

Beautiful steady calm rain, probably not much over 2 or 3 tenths but we need it. 

[doc henderson]

Wichita got 6 inches with street flooding.  central and western Ks got some and KSAR was put on alert for water rescue

[SwampDonkey]

That's quite a dump of rain, Doc. The wells are full out there for awhile. 

The change of weather here seems to have killed off a lot of the black fly population for now. Was hardly a fly in the woods yesterday besides blow flies. We had 75°.  

Clean bill of health here yesterday from the Oncology Doc following my quarterly cancer screening check up. Been a year since surgery.

[thecfarm]

56° and looks like 85° is coming today with some sun.
Looks like rain on Saturday. That will be the 13th wet weekend in a row. It has rained either Sunday or Saturday or both days for that long.

[Chuck White]

Real close @thecfarm, Ray, I just checked the thermometer of the front (east) porch, and it's 85 degrees now.

[SwampDonkey]

Just barely 80° here this afternoon. We have smog today from Quebec fires. Suppose to clear away tonight. I know the wind has shifted.

I'm starting to see the deer flies come to life.

[Stephen1]

lots of rain last  night and fog this morning. 

[Jim_Rogers]

Raining here today in eastern NC.

85° here this afternoon. Thunderstorms tonight with some heavy showers expected.

[thecfarm]

Yesterday was a hot day, I saw 90 a lot, but it was dry until about 8 at night, then a quick thunder shower came through. The first one this season.
Looks to be 76 for a high today, clouds all day and maybe some more showers this afternoon.
We are getting smoke from the Canada fire. No blue sky.

[doc henderson]

It is raining.  I have had sprinklers off for 2 weeks.  the weather is nice for working other than water falling from the sky at times, mostly at night.

[cutterboy]

Here we go again! We are under a flood watch for today and tomorrow. 1-2 inches of rain today and 1/2-3/4 inches tonight. Temp is 68 now going up to low 80s. Yesterday hit 92. We just missed a thunder storm about a half hour ago. It was just north of us running along the Ma.-Nh. border. Lots of thunder.
We have had four days of no rain and things are drying out and I managed to plant most of my gardens and hope to finish today. Maybe I can if the rain holds off for awhile.

[Stephen1]

We have summer here. smoke is bad, pretty hazy and not much sun. 

[SwampDonkey]

I saw 85° here yesterday. Yep, definitely a smog bank of smoke here to. 78° or so here today. We had a heavy thunder shower last night, about 3/4". More showers tomorrow. 

I bit the bullet on them cell phones, begrudgedly.   Should have one for out in the boonies for emergency. I may go Starlink, so I need one for the app to install that. Plus there are a few other useful apps. I know the phone part will hardly get used.

[thecfarm]

It started to rain around 6 tonight and still raining now.   
Showers tomorrow, who knows how much rain we will get tomorrow. 

[SwampDonkey]

Raining here to, puts a damper on gardening. I put the A/C in the window yesterday afternoon. Probably won't need it this week. Barely 70° every day for the next week.   

[Ianab]

Winter here 

Actually been a pretty clear day here, just we didn't get over 10C. It's now down to 5 and dropping. Lots of fresh snow on the Mt, and they got the small club skifield open late this afternoon. With the cold set to stay for a couple of days they may get a couple of days skiing in. 

Down South they have had a bit more. This pic came up on socials, supply truck heading into Milford Sound yesterday. That would be an interesting road to drive an H rated rig in that weather. 
 

[SwampDonkey]

So far just a shower and I can see light streeks in the sky, so we aren't going to get much. Radar doesn't show more than spotty showers.

[Ianab]

I bit the bullet on them cell phones, begrudgedly.   Should have one for out in the boonies for emergency. 

Don't think of a modern phone as just a phone. It's a pocket computer / camera / GPS / alarm clock. Lil's has an 8 core CPU, 1 tb of storage. and a 200mpix camera. Basically desktop PC specs. It also now has the ability to send txts via Starlink if it's out of cell coverage. 

I go with the cheaper phones as that's all I actually need. I see the new model of mine is $NZ 229, with no carrier contract. Mines on a business contract, they would probably give me one if I sign up for another 12 months. 

[thecfarm]

Not raining yet. Will come in around 9 this morning.
Sun is trying to come through the clouds.
I have to go to the big city to pick up some things. 

[cutterboy]

My town dodged a bullet yesterday. The forecast was for 1-2 inches of rain but we got none. Just to the north of us and just to the south of us there were bad storms. About 20 miles northwest of us the town of Orange closed down Main street because of flooding and they had hail the size of a quarter.

We did get a half inch of rain over night and expect more today but not much. It is not raining now, temp is 61 going up to 70.

Mine's lower mid range from what I can tell. Samsung Galaxy A36 5G 128 GB. 8-core CPU and long life battery, 45 W fast charging. Has eSim.  Be here Tuesday. I know their top of the line is closer to CDN$2000, this is $600. I don't need anything high end. I have access to property maps, so now I can see them in GPS mode as I move. Has aerial photography. So better than Google, because the properties are all there. Need the app to install Starlink for finding the best location, according to their website. There's stuff I wouldn't do on them, like banking and online ordering.

[SwampDonkey]

67° here and the sun is out. Fire smog though. 

[thecfarm]

Still raining here.

[SwampDonkey]

We've had some showers with no measurable rain and 70°. 

I see some seeds breaking ground in the garden: beats, beans, sunflowers. Not much for carrots or dill yet, but I also transplanted some dill today that grew wild from one of the framed gardens, which will be more than enough for my needs. I read one time on the seed packaging that the dill doesn't transplant well. Always did here, maybe they need someone to show'm how. I bet they don't grow 6-7 feet tall in their garden eighter.
