Dogs keep waking me up earlier per sunrise. Warm and muggy 74° and 80% chance for rain this afternoon. Rain is in the forecast all week with chances of flash flooding Wednesday. Having some steel cut oats, toast and coffee this morning.

47 heading to 79, another beautiful day here in the inland Pacific Northwest. Tomorrow starts a big cool down with a high of only 58 predicted for Thursday. Also we “may” see some rain Thursday and Friday but I’ve heard that before. :roll: Hope so as I need to mow some areas what are not watered and doing so today would be mowing in a cloud of dust just like Pig Pen from the old Charlie Brown Peanuts comics. :lol:

Today I’m finally back to splitting firewood, started a few weeks ago but got interrupted by other projects and a vacation. :D

As always the Folgers Black Silk is flowing freely and I feel my motor starting up.

Today: it’s sunny. It’s currently 54; the expected high is 79. We really could use some rain!

52 heading to 60 with an overcast. 20+ degree drop from yesterday’s high. Cold front is here with very windy conditions and yesterday the pines were releasing pollen and at times it looked like a snow blizzard out there. Fortunately I’m not allergic so while it’s annoying and messy I don’t suffer too bad. Sure makes a mess of everything, had to shut up the house and shop even tho I was working outside.

Hoping to finish my wood splitting today, had to quit early yesterday as the lawn needed some attention too.

64, light rain calm winds. Supposed to rain all day and tomorrow. We need it. :D
Orange juice, Folgers, cookies. (Chocolate Chip).😁
Probably work in the shop today. I finished the boat ramp yesterday and the boat is out of the water.
That's good or I'd have to hand bail it after the rain stops.
Carol wants to go to a place she likes for lunch that is a bit of a drive, but what the heck, it's raining anyway. :roll:
Can't do yard work.

Got 4.5" of rain last night. Thunderstorms lasted pretty much all night long. Light rain still falling this morning with flash flood warnings continuing through early tomorrow morning. No flooding here at the moment. Had cereal and coffee for breakfast this morning.

^^^^^^

That’s an incredible amount of rain Jake. Tonight we’re supposed to get .1 inch and we’re doing the happy dance. Don’t want your level of rain (and flooding of course) but would like some of it.

We had a freeze warning overnight and folks were scrambling to cover newly planted plants. We planted some trees and some plants but the trees are hearty and the plants are next to the garage so we didn’t need to cover anything. I did unscrew the hoses from the house bibs. Woke up to 34 so no frost for us. Forgot I changed the HVAC to A/C so had to turn the heat on this morning.

Wow Jake! Are you in that flood plain around Houston? We have spent some Winters near Dickenson and have seen the flood damage there from previous storms. Scary.
