Our Morning Coffee and Weather

[dave77]

62 this morning with hazy skies. We’ve been very fortunate this summer with very little wildfire smoke.

It's been smoke free here so far but it's very dry and we still have a couple of months of fire season left. Had a few hazy days last week.

61 with a beautiful red sunrise. Spent a bit of time on the patio with a cup of coffee in hand watching the sun come up. Hot today in the mid 90’s and then the upper 90’s Monday and Tuesday. After three consecutive days out in the heat I’m thinking I stay close to the A/C for a couple of days. Golfing today but it’s a course about 35 miles north of my place and then up into the mountains where it will be cooler. Plus we’re riding in carts today (we bought discount tickers at the Golf Show last February). Normally we walk but riding in a cart will be nice in today’s temps.

Had a great time yesterday at the charity Sporting Clays shoot. The course is different every year and I felt it was much more difficult this year. At least I’m using that for an excuse for my poor shooting. This was the 12th year of this event and I have been to 11. (Poor vacation planning on my part caused me to miss the one year).

Cooler today, might be a good day to head out to the hills and hike and maybe have a picnic. Everyone have a great day.

Hmmm... either 62 or 67 this morning. Hazy with mixed clouds here and there. Maybe 96 later.

while the temp this morning has been a bit lower than in recent days, the humidity has been more than adequate to make up for it .... its 83 at 3PM with a RealFeel of 95 .... forecasted high is 86 with it to drop back to 68 overnight .... no rain .... our son and his family are on their way back from the Pigeon Forge .... they had a really good time and his Jeep truck is said to be running strong ....

We're up early. Carol has a annual check up at the Mayo Clinic this morning.
She processed the wild grapes last evening and ended up with about two gallons
of juice for wine and jelly making.

75 with a RealFeel of 87 at 9:30AM .... they say our high today will reach 88 before dropping back to an overnight low of 63 .... first mention of rain in the long term forecast isn't until Monday, Sept 1st .... we have a run to Walmart for meds and groceries with a stop by our local Chevy dealership to check on the status of our 2500 HD Silverado that is slated to be delivered a week from today

66' and mostly cloudy this morning. Maybe 94' and mostly sunny later.

Coop, growing up we had a grape vine and a cherry tree. My mom used to make grape jam and would can the cherries and we kids enjoyed both all winter.

59 earlier today and as I type this it’s getting hot. High of 98 expected today and tomorrow. The road in front of my place is being re-paved today and I sure feel sorry for those guys laying hot asphalt in this heat.

Played golf yesterday and this guy tried to join our group.

our weather has taken a delightful turn ..... moderating temps with lower humidity .... 74 with a RealFeel of 80 at noon .... forecasted high 82 with a coming overnight low of 54 .... high cloud cover with large patches of blue .... no rain .... first up this morning, taking Maureen to a pre-op medical appointment .... the last before her pending right knee replacement .... next up later this afternoon to take a grandson and his Husky to our daughter's work where she will take them on to a dog training class

61 this morning due to overcast skies keeping the temp up a little. Predicted high today is 98 but if this overcast sticks around we won’t get there. Tomorrow starts a slight cool down with temps in the low 90’s and then in the 80’s for most of the Labor Day weekend. Great camping weather for those who will venture out.

Going to get on the lawnmower here if a few and beat the heat.

[JEBar]

54 when we woke up shortly after daylight .... 61 RealFeel 67 at 8:30AM .... forecasted high 81 followed by an overnight low of 55 .... no rain today (Wednesday), this coming Sunday is supposed to be a washout .... only thing on the calendar for today is they are coming for fall service on our heat pump .... that thing has really been worked hard this summer .... I do hope to get out and start unloading our current Chevy pickup which will be traded in on our coming new Chevy pickup

I'll do yard work today and then beer and wings with the gun club group this evening.

A warm one today at 64 with some overcast. High is supposed to be 91 but if the overcast sticks around like it did yesterday we’ll stay in the 80’s. Yesterday’s forecast of 98 also stayed in the 80’s due to the overcast. Yipee. Maybe some rain later, hope so. Saw on the news that the Spokane area has received only 16% of our normal rain. But just 90 miles north where our property is located 135% of normal has fallen. When we were up there last week we noticed how greener everything was.

Another interesting fact is a small part of the Spokane river has gone dry on the surface. Here we are blessed with a huge aquifer that in some places feeds the river and in other places drains the river. The flow of the river is controlled by a dam which drains a large lake named Lake Coeur d’alene. By requirement the utility company that own the dam has to restrict the discharge until Labor Day to make sure there’s enough water for recreation on the lake and upper river. The combination of our drought and the restricted flow from the dam has caused the riverbed to be empty for a short distance. In my recollection this is the first time this has happened. A bit scary but next week the dam will open and the river should return to normal. Some rain would help.
