As long as it cools off some I am fine with that. Excellent flying weather ahead!
Yeah, nice how the map takes a big narrow dip to cover most of Linn County for the extreme drought.
Given how many storms have literally fell apart upon reaching the county line, this is not surprising. Sure is frustrating though.
Well it sure got nice last night. Not looking forward to the wkend.
Was way too nice last night. Just a sick tease.
For over 20 years our golf course has been pumping out of the stream. I believe it was the DNR, but I don't know for sure, told them to stop pumping to the holding pond last week. The wells are only sufficient to water the greens. The river I used to play in as a kid is about 10 feet wide now. Normally 30 to 40 feet wide. no canoes for three years no kayaks for a year. Its dry.
Little mini popup strom this morning. The NWS Twitter guys make me chuckle.
-7 inches from normal on precipitation for the summer in Twin Cities. Now watering so stuff doesn't go into fall all stressed out and die on me over the winter.
I have the weatherbug app. Got an alert it would be raining in 15 minutes. Nothing.
We just stopped watering the yard. Contractors will be here in a couple weeks to build a deck and install a shed in the back yard. We'd rather the ground was a little harder to withstand the equipment better.
Ordinarily a fall deck project would be a rain magnet but probably not this year.
More weird weather, this time at Burning Man. It's usually a playa dust bowl but this year went from dust storms to people being stranded by the mud the unusually heavy rain made.
The forecast high for Minnesota Wednesday is 30 degrees cooler than the high forecast for Tuesday. That is so 2023. Also some rain forecast which is just the weather gods messing with the NWS and the rest of us here. It ain't gonna rain.
Our outdoor thermometer says 98. It’s on the east side of the house (backyard) in the shade mounted on light/colored siding.
My laundry on the clothesline is baking dry.

If I were live acoustic guitar singer guy I'd play this and the Gen Xers in the place would just love it.
