    I don't know about everyone else, but we are back in the weather pattern again this year that gets really, really boring and tiring.

    HOT, made to feel even hotter by the high humidity. And no rain in the immediate future...as my favorite weatherman on TV said the other day when one of the news anchors asked him when we could expect rain again.....he answered "In October when the State Fair is underway" And I am afraid he was serious. :'(

    96 today but we are having a cool down tomorrow...the high temp will only be 92.

    Not much yard work getting done here, I water plants and pull a few weeds, feed the birds and fill the birdbaths.
    We ran the soaker hose around the foundation tonight for 3 hours...the front door lock has been hard to work lately so it is time to start doing that every evening.

    Hi from Dublin , the weather here has been changeable but the garden season is in full swing , 7 days a week at the moment, I finally got to do a little of my own garden today , potting up the parsley and thyme . Major losses to the slugs I'm afraid , an unstoppable force met an immovable feast .

    I wrote this and forgot to submit it. It was cool here today. It didn't get much past 70F. It was a bit breezy. Is that different from windy? I think it is windy when it blows things around. The forecast was for upper 80's. Mayer Daze parade is on Saturday and the forecast is for 98F. Yikes!
    I may shut the window some tonight. It is already down to 58F outside. Dooley

    My opinion about windy and breezy is that windy is a faster, stronger version of breezy. How's that for scientific quantifiable accuracy :D

    Seeming like its going to stay a pleasant day in Malmö today. A bit cloudy though so I'm not definite. 13 deg C / 55 deg F

    Pea sized hail yesterday and bitterly cold. Now the sun is out but it still feels more like February that almost June. Good weather for working in the garden though. :-D

    It has been raining a little here today.
    The temperature is in the low 70's and it's cloudy!! I hope we get good rains here instead of just little sprinkle.

    It was cool when we got up but then the sun came up. It's 80F in the shade. I wonder what happened to a little breezy. DR is happy the breezy is gone. He's hearing a bit today. Working on getting the front of the house ready to paint. Dooley
