Well, yesterday a tropical storm came ashore in our area. Heavy rain almost all day long. TV says we got almost 6" of rain. Lots of flooded areas, north of me.

Today the sun is out and it just like it never happened. Here but all of the roadside drainage areas are full to the brim.

It's moved to the west side of our state.

85° here this afternoon. And bone dry, no mention of rain. See lots of balm, ash and red maple dropping leaves this week.

86°, but I think the heat is going to break Thursday evening. See lots of leaves falling today in the woods, real dry on this next block I'm at and lots of stones, so probably thin soil.

Thick dark clouds started to gather east of me around 3pm. Normally they stay there or head east. Sounds of distant thunder. Then about 4pm, cold breeze and it let loose with 1/2" hail. Took cover under my half roof.

Light wind from the east and I was getting pelted with the ricochet hail. Went on for about 20 minutes then several hours of rain.

I don't want to think about hail! It's not normal here and usually precedes a big mess of damage.

 The weather here has been disgustingly nice for many weeks with just a bit of rain and temps up around 80 most days.
 A Cooler trend is setting up for next week with a bunch of rain days forecast. But I am just focused on Saturday because it's my last scheduled show of the season and a nice clear fall day will go a long way toward helping have a successful day. The show I did 10 days ago should have been the same, but we got rain which kept the gate to about 40% of normal and a lousy day for me considering all the prep I put in and products rushed out for it.
 This last one is 40 minutes west and a little north, where the temps run about 10° cooler than here because of the elevation change. 48 hours out and the forecast looks like a clear, sunny, warmish fall day with a high of about 72°.  I sure hope it's accurate.
 Time to get at it.

82° today, but 60's henceforth for the next week and remaining dry.

Good luck at the Saturday show, Tom.

70° here, but all day to get there. Found a hornet's nest by an old popple stump when thinning. They was a stinging and I kept on a swinging the saw and working my way across the face of the thinning toward my trail. Got maybe 4 or 5 burns, but I don't find their stings all that bad. They don't even swell. By tomorrow they will be itchy.  ffcheesy
