What is your weather today?

[fiver]

The highlands of ID!

the Sis in-law calls it ''Upper Canada'' after coming up from Utah to watch fireworks on the 4th. a few years back,,, and had to wear one of my spare oil field work coats I had in the truck to keep from freezing.
she doesn't get dirty, ever, so having to smell that coat was quite the offense to her senses.

Yes Walker Lake . The change to catalyst and unleaded has been in direct relationship to the clarity losses in Tahoe also ........but I'm a file & drill press machinist breaker points updraft carb mechanic so what the heck do I know .

Pouring herein SW WI. How I wish I my friends in Northern MN could have some of this for their fire and drought.

 

[Glaciers]

Wet, and more wet. Been wet, still wet. Supposed to have a break tomorrow then back to rain on Sunday. Might get a bit of sunny weather after that. Pretty crappy August.

 

[JWFilips]

Sickly humid ! A storm or two a day and the sun burns! May be getting another Tropical storm coming up this week!
Tomatoes are splitting & getting Rotten and Peppers are rotting on the plants Time to pack it in for the dying plants.... May get another chance at some Fall Plantings

81. Too hot.

 

[CZ93X62]

It's hot here too, Michael. That heat that the climate wonks were jabbering about landed today, 106* high qualifies as "Hot" by most observers. 103* right now at 5:20 P.M., so overnight cool-down is slow coming.

 

[fiver]

30's at night about 70 during the day.
I don't know whether to water the garden or cover it over with more plastic.

 

[Glaciers]

Frost tonight possibly a little snow. Covered our garden boxes

1 1/4" Thursday night into Friday, was still storming when we got up yesterday, cancelled a fishing trip. Then the weather turned out pretty good most of the day. Got up to mid 80's by late afternoon. Then the weather radio started going nuts about 6 pm, tornado watch until 11. Kept going off about every half hour until I unplugged it. Severe T storms just to the north, just to the south of us. Woke up at quarter to 2am and it was raining hard. Cell after cell would march through, rain, lightning, quiet, rain lightning quiet still raining lightly now at dawn. An additional 2" over night. And there are still cells forming west of us in Iowa headed this way. I wish it would go north into Northern MN and help those folks out.

Rained hard with local street flooding yesterday. Today hot and humid, 77* now with 81% humidity heading to upper 80's-90*.

 

[Winelover]

Today hot and humid, 77* now with 81% humidity heading to upper 80's-90*.

About identical to what we have, today. We can use the rain. Haven't had any since the middle (.5" over three days) of the month. Scattered PM T-storms for tomorrow. Showers Monday and Tuesday but no more than 50% chance.

 

[JonB]

We've had hot,humid,rainy for the last week and today, tonight...(we've had 4" of rain in the last week, we're good for now).
SO, I'm looking forward to next week's weather.
It's suppose to be 70s during the day and 50s at night and relatively dry .sounds perfect.
They say rain again to start by Thursday...
BUT, whenever a Big Hurricane hits LA and wanders North, it stalls all the weather in MN, and whatever weather we have, stays unchanged for like a week and the funny thing is the paid weather predictors never guess it right. So I am predicting a FULL week of perfect weather in southern MN.

 

[RicinYakima]

Cooling off because of all the smoke in the air, air quality 200+ every day for two weeks. Even Ms Tillie will only go outside to pee and then right back inside. Fires are going to burn until fall rain/snow in the mountains, which should be end of Sept or beginning of Oct. 50* this morning and high expected about 88*. Yesterday was 100 days with no measurable rainfall.

 

[Glaciers]

Boy as far as winter snows killing fires, I can’t remember what year it was, 2003 or so 7.2 million acres burned in Alaska. It was crazy. That was the year without summer. But we had a very big fire just north of town that has miles of very deep layers of peat. The fire burns deep and smoldered all winter and started up again in the early summer. Fire service was prepared for it, plus most above ground fuel had been burned off. But peat fires can travel quite a distance burning smoldering under the surface.

97* and not real humid today, given the usual labor Day Weekend heat hereabouts I would call the conditions "Mild". None of that prevented the weather propagandists from declaring a "Heat Advisory" for today through Sunday. The news orgs are even "spinning" the weather forecast these days. Maybe this is just another indication of how stupid the media take their readership/viewership for.

 

[smokeywolf]

We're at about 91 degrees right now, a little overcast. Won't hit our low until 0700 tomorrow, which is supposed to be 70 degrees.
Our weather prognosticators are saying that we will see some thundershowers starting at 8PM and lasting thru 0900 tomorrow.

August's last week didn't say good riddance to the June gloom, but the sun has been burning through it much sooner since. Temperatures have been in the high 60s and low 70s, so once the sun pops out it's nice, and the prevailing West/Northwest on-shore wind has mostly been no more than 15 mph.

Yep, I'm more than ready to see sunrises, sunsets, and the moon and stars.

The few acorns that have dropped, so far, are small and I haven't seen an abundance of them on the trees. It's still early, though, but I'm not overly confident that the drought won't linger into the Winter of '22-'23. Time will tell, but California has had droughts of 50 to 150-years duration.

It would be impossible to over estimate the level of stupidity in today's America.

Ain't that the truth.
I better stop there.
I could fill a book with my thoughts on this crap, as I'm sure most here could...
