What is your weather like right now?

[Addie]

Our temps are in the low 7-'s. I had to make a run to the store earlier. As I turned the corner the breeze was blowing in from the ociean. I could smell the salt air.

Today has been the perfect Spring day

Sunny, warm and just lovely!!

Isaac was a little more vicious than I expected. Starting Tuesday, the power went out at 6pm and wasn't restored until Saturday night at 9 pm. 99 hours without power! It was miserable. Hot, muggy waiting for the refrigerator food to go bad. We did have water, and cold showers helped.

Then... once the power was restored, I found out that the cable was out, no Internet and no TV.

The TV is still not receiving a signal, but I was so grateful to find the internet is now working.

All of us were worried about you. So glad to see you back here safe and sound. Did you have any water damage?

 

[Zhizara]

Thanks, Addie. Miss you guys too.

The carpet in the bedroom is now water marked and not quite dried out, but no biggie.

That's it as far as I know.

Lovely...sunny and warm, top of 26c today

So glad you're OK, Zhizara!

90+ here along the river. Hedonistically floating around the pool on my floaty thing with my Kindle in its waterproof case, minimal rugrats. Last day of summer,

 

[Zhizara]

How luxurious, Dawg. Enjoy! Do you have someone to cook for you later? Maybe some eye candy pool boy?

 

[Dawgluver]

No, DH is taking a nap, he's not bad, and I'm the cook.

 

[Cheryl J]

lol dawg. Sure does sound good though, lounging in a pool.

It looked like rain here in the desert this evening, I was sitting on the patio watching the clouds. Instead of rain, everything changed and turned into this.

 

[Kylie1969]

Wow

 

[Zhizara]

Beautiful. Windows open, blue sky with a soft white haze. Comfortable.

Finally! We had quite the rain! I couldn't see the barn from the house. And it lasted for over 30 minutes--it is still raining lightly 2 hours later. We have SOOOOO needed a good soaking. It is supposed to rain off and on all week--hopefully it will help the ground water table. It is too late for the gardens and crops--our killing frost re: tender plants is only about 3 weeks away.

It's overcast here and there is rain in the forecast. I guess we will be getting your rain. I hope it's a good drenching. It's so dry here that the weeds are dying and the creeping charlies are all wilted.

Gorgeous pic, Cheryl!

Hotter than blazes here, and muggy.

 

[Kylie1969]

After 2 totally fabulous, warm, sunny days in the mid 20's, today is 17, very dark and raining heaps...what a contrast...Winter is trying to come back LOL

 

[Addie]

The temps have been in the 60's all day with rain. More rain for tomorrow. It is the tail end of Isaac. Gee, thank folks. There is another storm in the tropics right now and it is supposed to kiss the outer Cape and head for the Maritime Provinces. that will keep the fishing fleet in shore.

 

[simonbaker]

High of 96F today in a hot & muggy SE S.D. There are thunderstorm warnings about an hour west of us. It is really cooling down nicely this evening.

 

[Kylie1969]

So, so windy here...all day and now it looks like all night, it is blowing a gale
