Violet31 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 It´s so hot here, I feel like a boiled lobster. This must be the calm before the storm... or something! 29°degrees today and when in Iceland with the clear air we have, it´s way higher. I´ve been to Sudan on a hot day and believe me... this is getting a bit weird.The cats in their furcoats are just sleeping and making a funny gurgling sounds, waiting for some cool air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trace Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 It was chilly this morning, but turning into a pleasant sunny day. Spring is just around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epictetus Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 It is hot with a touch of humidity. The humidity is not so high that the swamp cooler won't work, but is high enough that the cooler isn't working well. So I have fans turned on too.

SufferInSilence Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Actually quite pleasant today. Woke up to fog and a light mist and then it cleared for sun and beautiful blue skies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupcake_girl Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Really HOT. It's 35C today and tommorow it's expected to be 37C. This is going to be the hottest weekend since 1994.. So yeah. I like some sun but this is way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epictetus Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The weather is still hot but the "promise" of a cooling spring is in the air. Seems like the birds and insects can sort of feel it to. Perhaps I am anthropomorphizing. Looks like the ants are starting to shut down things for eventual hibernation. They seem kind of laid back in their efforts as if they know spring is coming. I've found a way to observe them without getting stung. I took a metal milk crate and I just stand on it. I put a little bit of Vicks around the edge. They don't like the smell of it and won't climb up and bite me. Ha ha ha. I never noticed it before but ants never seem to move in a straight line. I don't think I would have noticed it except that a couple of very determined beetles walked by and were moving in a very ambitious way along a straight path. I learn something every day.

Epictetus Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thunder and Lightning. Where I live there are all these ancient Cottonwood trees and there is nowhere to park one's car except under one of them. Most have these HUGE dead limbs that hang menacingly over my car "Fluffy." I know if one of these huge limbs fell on "Fluffy" she would be a gonner. YIKES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trace Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Its getting warmer, but I have no idea if I am hot or cold today, as I still have this stupid flu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet31 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I hope your flu gets better, Trace:)The weather is very hot and now they talk about a massive sunstorm coming our way. Might be quite a show as it causes the Northern Lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epictetus Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Not as hot as yesterday but humid and sticky. It has been trying to rain here since dawn. The sky has been overcast all day, but no rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelly Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 It's a perfect day here in CT today. Temp is about 75F and clear. Almost feels more like autumn than summer. I could take this weather all year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epictetus Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 It is hot today but my a/c is making a "funny noise," so I am trying not to run it too much. I don't know why I call it a funny noise, since there is nothing really funny about it. If it cools down this evening, I might climb up the ladder and look at it.

Trace Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 It is warm, but slightly overcast. It looks like our Spring Rain may actually come in Spring this year, instead of Summer. How awesome would that be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet31 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 A bit cooler. It´s obvious autumn is drawing near. We might get some good days still, the trees in my gardens are getting heavy with berries. Harvest time.In September we like to go outside the city to pick blackberries, my favorite berries of all except grapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
