    Good morning from the North Woods of Wisconsin. We had Thunder Storms last night, and will again as the day progresses. There are also patches of blue sky, and the sun peaks out occasionally. Very humid to go with the mid 80s F (high 20s C). Rain off and on for the next 2 or 3 days, and we need all the rain we can get. So, no complaints.

    Good Morning. 78 degree with 76% humidity and sunny at present. Thunderstorms for later today. I ran most of my errands yesterday but have a couple more before we go to supper tonight. Maybe I can run between the rain drops. Enjoy your Friday. Wannabe

    Morning all. Another roaster here and no relief in sight for at least the next 7 days. 102 yesterday but the humidity was lower so it only felt like 105. No rain on my yard in over 30 days and none expected for the rest of July.

    Grandsons and grand-dogs will spend part of today with us while their mom, dad and the movers load up the truck and move stuff to the house. Then we will deliver boys, dogs and pizza to their new home later.

    Good Saturday morning all. Currently 22°C and overcast. I'm with Penny ~ the heat sure has gotten the gardens growing! I'll have more zucchini than I can handle soon, as well as tomato and cucumber! I'm not complaining :)
    Have a great day all!

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently 15°C and sunny. There were some very violet thunderstorms that moved thru Ontario yesterday, but they completely missed me here. I was looking forward to a bit of rain but we didn't get ANY! Toronto and surrounding area's had severe storms with high winds, heavy rain, and hail. There was even one confirmed tornado. I hope Penny and Chelsea weren't in the line of one of these storms.
    Today I have some housework to do and a bit of weeding. I hope I don't have to leave the yard today :)

    Blistering morning and broiling day all.
    101 yesterday, should be about 103 today. I will start full blown whining about this heat any day now. I have been putting it off in the hopes that it would be a short heat wave but hopes have been dashed so the whining shall begin!!!

    We plan on finishing the herb garden section this morning, we need to install shelves and hang the gate. I have some Coneflowers and Rudbeckia to get in the ground so they won't dry out as quickly and have a better chance of living thru this heat wave.
    Then go to breakfast and do nothing for the rest of the daylight portion of the next 12 hours. Our youngest gets in from Calif a little before 10 p.m.

    It is possible that our beautiful Summer with temps in the 80s (F) and low humidity is about to give way to the usual hot and muggy July weather.... This a.m. when I opened the door, rather than the sweet cool breeze.... it was creeping hot and hazy..... oh well... it was wonderful while it lasted!

    Hope you are all well and dealing with whatever weather you are facing.

    Good morning everyone,

    Its sunny out here but its a bit cooler and they say rain this afternoon.

    Had a busy weekend, and today i have laundry on the go and shingles for our roof are being delivered today too.

    The grass doesnt need cut, so thats good, and no point in watering if its going to later

    Sunny, hot, sunny, hot...dadgum I am getting tired of this weather. Might be a cool down coming, only upper 90's later this week, woohoo.

    Anyway, the youngest got home last night finally. There was a two hour delay leaving LAX making it midnight getting to DFW airport. Her first trip away from home alone and for two weeks too. But she had a really good time.
