Here in the inland northwest it’s been a great year nearly smoke free. Usually the fires in Oregon send lots of smoke our way but that’s not happening so far. Now I have said this watch the smoke come in.

63 and overcast this morning, sure feels great compared to yesterday up at the lake. It was hot and very muggy. Okay while out on the water in a moving boat but miserable on the shore with no breeze. We were surrounded by thunderstorms and could see some lightning in the distance. Thankfully the storms stayed in the distance. Heading back up this afternoon for more lake fun with the kids/grandkids.

82 with a RealFeel of 98 at Noon .... they say the temp will go up a couple of more degrees before dropping back to an overnight low of 71 .... a much cooler front is supposed to move in later today that should bring with it a couple of showers and thunderstorms, heaviest late; humid; thunderstorms can bring flash flooding and localized damaging wind gusts ..... the front will also bring with it a most welcome, extended period of much cooler temps .... we've just returned from a medical appointment that monitors Maureen's first knee replacement .... her surgery was 6 months ago and she has a final appointment 6 months from now .... happy to say, all's well

[Mags]

58' and sunny this morning. No smoke here. Maybe 86' later. Into next week cooler, maybe mid 70's to low 80's.

My field was baled today after being cut on Wednesday.

The resident sandhill cranes can now grub in the hay field. Before the cutting they could only feed in my cut lawn.

Comfortable 55º this morning with a 85% humidity. Opened up the house the last 2 days and shut off the air conditioner. Not as smokey this morning and no rain predicted. If the lawn dries out today I need to mow.

Up way too early this morning and it’s a warm 62. Here at home we had a light rain fall for a couple of hours which was wonderful. Up at the lake where the kids are no rain. Very windy when we got up there so didn’t take the boat out. Hopefully today it will be calmer and we can take the grandkids tubing.

This is the view from the cabin they rented. This is Lake Pend Orielle in northern Idaho. What you’re seeing is where the lake transitions to the Pend Orielle River which drains the lake. Very large lake and in this pic you’re looking at less than 5% of the entire lake.The river heads west into Washington State and then turns north and enters Canada where it dumps into the Columbia River which then travels back into Washington State. Our rivers are confused.

Fog/Mist, 52°F, Humidity 100%
Wind Speed Calm
Barometer 30.40 in
Dewpoint 52°F
Visibility 2.50 mi
Mostly sunny, with a high near 77.
Areas of smoke before 8am, then areas of smoke after 1pm.
Light south southeast wind becoming south 5 to 10 mph in the afternoon.
This is the smokiest Summer I can remember. I had lunch yesterday with an old
Vietnam vet friend of mine and he's on oxygen. This smoke is really hard for him.
Seems like a lot of us are up early. For me it's because my youngest Grandson and
his other Grandfather are coming out fishing this morning.

Good luck there Coop and enjoy the time.

Smoky haze here this morning, really need to get out and do some lawn. Everyone have a great day and weekend!

[JEBar]

we awoke this morning to the most pleasant "sound of silence" .... yep, I don't remember how long its been since we didn't awaken to the sound of the AC from our heat pump .... 70 with rain at 8AM .... the say that we can expect "periods of rain" for the next 57 minutes .... forecasted high today 79 followed by an overnight low of 63 .... sure hope they are right that the rain will move out before lunch because I'm looking forward to breaking out our griddle to fix both baby back ribs and chicken wings for tonight

[Mags]

58' and cloudy with some sun this morning. Maybe 83' later. Maybe 70's next couple of days.

[JEBar]

first time in a good while that I've been able to say, we awoke to a really nice morning .... beautiful Carolina Blue Sky .... 63 with a RealFeel of 64 at 7AM .... predicted high of 81 later this afternoon before dropping back to an overnight low of 61 .... no rain for a couple of days but the long range forecast has a very soggy/stormy period on the horizon
