65 with a RealFeel of 72 with a 4MPH breeze under a beautifully clear Carolina Blue Sky .... forecasted high 87 with chance of afternoon/evening thunderstorms .... most of the things we need to take care of today center on us leaving in the morning to spend 4 days at Myrtle Beach

We really like Myrtle Beach. In fact we were there in March for a few days at Apache Pier.

60 this morning with very smoky skies. Cool down starts today but still 94 is the predicted high. There’s enough smoke that we might not see 94. Cooler this weekend and maybe some light rain first of the week. We sure need it.

Myrtle Beach is less than a 3 hr drive from our house .... when we went to Bass Pro a while back they had an area setup trying to get folks to sign up for a sales pitch at Myrtle .... unsure exactly what its all about, best guess some time share program .... we hav no interest in a timeshare but for free Motel and enough expense money to more than cover the trip, we decided to take them up on it .... all we have to do is listen to sales pitch .... with us buying a new truck right now 4 basically free days at the beach sounded pretty good

68 when I got up earlier due to a heavy smoke layer. The sun is just now (noon) starting to peek thru a little bit. It’s supposed to stay this way thru tomorrow with a hint of rain on Sunday.

Several days ago I showed a picture of a part of the Spokane River with a dry bed. Last Tuesday our power company opened the dam above as scheduled and the riverbed is now flowing normally. So far, this has been the driest summer on record. Not good as the fall rains are still weeks away.

We've been pretty smoke free this Summer but now it's somewhat smoky due to a couple of nearby fires started by the a recent lightning storm. Not too bad now, always remember how smoky it was one time years ago. Driving alongside the Columbia River and you could not see the other side. I was still working at that time and until we shut down all the outside HVAC air coming into the building you could look down the longer hallways and see the smoke.

I got back from Milwaukee to find my house 59 degrees inside. I guess summer is over.

Glad you're getting some rain if you need it Randy.
Don't need it at all here. The whole summer was mostly a wash-out. Way too much.

54 earlier today. I must be conditioned to the hot weather we’ve been suffering lately as when I went out on the patio for a cup of coffee I had to go back inside and put a light sweatshirt on. Either that or I’m becoming a wuss. :lol: Heavy smoke again today which will keep the temp down. 90 is the forecast but I doubt we’ll see anything above the low 80’s.

Took advantage of the cool weather and finished splitting what firewood I have. Won’t be enough for this winter so I may have to buy some. That will be a first for me as I always get enough off my place and from neighbors who don’t heat with wood to get by. I have five full trees cut into logs for next year but they are too green to burn this year.

I have a 3 cord pile I need to start stacking. I buy it. It's been a long while since we thinned, cut and chopped our own. We have the property park like now so the only big cuts I do now and then is when a tree dies.

61' and cloudy. Expected to be cloudy all day. Maybe 75' later. Rain yesterday wasn't even a spit. Literally just a few random drops that landed on my arms. Still calling for rain Mon and Tues.

I built a fire in the oddy yesterday. The gang is coming over after church today and we are watching the Packers beat the Lions. It frosted in some areas. I think my low was 35F.
