Our Morning Coffee and Weather

[PT7]

At last, a steady rain happening this morning in the Northland!! We are extremely dry in this part of KCMO, and these glistening drops of water falling are a beautiful sight. Been going on for over an hour now, and I have almost 2/10" in the rain gauge.

I brought over a comment NCG made in my last outdoor range report when I mentioned how hot and dry it is here. Her description of her area in WI mirrors our MO region:

We've been having July weather in May, too. Even worse, our May weather did a complete reversal of what we had in April. We've had no significant rain, at all. Our forests are tinder dry. Not good.

We're predicted at 60-70% rain chances through this evening, with temps in upper 60s to low 70s. What a pleasant relief! This cooler, damp weather also makes for my upcoming pleasant afternoon nap!

Having my second Henry mug of double mocha while watching the sparrows dodge the raindrops!

Raining here for 2 days now but it has provided some nice bass fishing.

Rained here all day yesterday. Second weekend in a row not being able to get out and keep up with the grass mowing. Today no rain but not very warm. Maybe some of our rain will help you out PT.

Thank you all for the well wishes!! Celebrating is held off until this week.
It's been cold and raining here. We are hovering around 50 here. The rest of the week will be shooting up to 80.

Beautiful day in southern Alberta. Temps up to 60f. Posted some pics in my Cow Country thread. Enjoy. Sitting back with a tea this afternoon and watching hockey game.

Gorgeous morning. Just finished cleaning my 1860. Sat out on the deck and cleaned and oiled inside and out. I have a can of Rem oil that quit spraying but it just fizzles a few little drops still. It is perfect for running a misty line up one side of the rifle and down the other, then wiping it down. Tea in Henry mug.

Just checked my rain gauge this morning after the rainy Sunday. Although it hasn't broken the extreme dry conditions here, it's a nice start. The gauge showed 1/2" water showered down, which also means there was probably a little more since the gauge doesn't prove totally accurate. Temps dropped to a cooler (for me) and more pleasant 64* this morning.

Going to glance toward the cloudy sky throughout today, and hope for some more!

Right now it's 77° and 87% humidity. It'll only get worse as the day goes on. Supposed to only get to 90° today but next week we'll be in the mid to upper 90's all week.

55 going to 75 f. It is getting set to be hot and humid here.

Coffee in the NRA mug.

Enjoy the day.

Same here. Already 76°with 89% humidity. Supposed to get up to 90 today. On second cup of joe. I'm going to the range so I'll definitely sweat but will be enjoyable.

[Mistered]

Sunny and 53 this morning - mid 70's today with possible thunderstorms. Typical spring day in Central Oregon.

[Dahliathemeh]

80s going up to 90s this week, yuk....

Just watched the weather forecast for the Memorial Day weekend -- Gosh, wish I hadn't.

Posting the next 5 days predicted temps for our area, only because official summer begins June 21st, 4 weeks from today.
We have been averaging +20* above normal May temps.

It is going to be a sizzler, and will bring +90% humidity with the high temps!!
89* for tomorrow (Friday)
92* for Saturday
95* for Sunday
93* for Memorial Day
92* for Tuesday.
Have to stick this last long-range day in here: Predicted 97* for Friday, June 1st.

Wonder if we'll be having a "hot summer start" in four weeks?!?!?

[PT7]

The most comfortable outdoor place to be today in KCMO is in the swimming pool!
Weather guy just reported on tv we will be at near 94* this afternoon, with high humidity and 100* as the heat index.
Temps in the nineties could continue for almost two more weeks...yikes!

He finished his weather "analysis" by telling us we're having mid-July summer temps/weather now. Glad to know it!
No real spring season this year. Who would have thought?

Beautiful morning in cow country. Badger and I were out for a long walk and stopped for morning break. Grass for him, coffee for me. Another day in paradise. 60F with a light breeze. Great time of year.

[daytime dave]

Looks like a great day for sure RR.

[JEBar]

this morning's coffee taste pretty dang good .... warm and very muggy .... 81 minutes from now heavy rain from Alberto is supposed to move in ....

[JCN]

I'm jealous, RR.

Today will be around 90 degrees in Vegas. I'm off to work, no time off for Memorial Day...

[Shakey Jake]

83° at 9:45 a.m. CDT and 80% humidity. Supposed to get up to 95 today and by week's end we're supposed to see our first 100° degree days.

It seems here in C FLA we've been blessed with a mild spring. again it's 80's today and I don't think we've hit 90 yet
