Quite Warm!

 It WAS quite warm yesterday but wind and low humidity made it easy to cope with. Today we've got a lot of cloud cover. It was already warm this morning! But it sure looks like a good set up for thunderstorms later. That would be nice. 







Many things could be, would be, nice indeed if only they would happen. I've got a list but it's best to keep it to myself. It's my personal and private wish list.

Those Triple Digits

 Looks like triple digits every day for quite a while. Fortunately low humidity and breezy, too, during this period. I'm eager for the next norther, and the transition to cooler weather. It might take another month to get there. 







And we could sure use more rain! Don't hear much anymore about those Texas earthquakes but they continue, hundreds of them.

Another Cool Morning

 This cool morning is probably the last one we will experience, until the next norther, and that one should be stronger. Temperatures will soar again before that happens. Truly, the human race is living on borrowed time. The insane party, the drunken orgy,  is about to devolve into madness and death, on a scale never seen before. At least, that's the most likely scenario for the future. No colonies on Mars, that's for sure. 







Eventually, even the billionaires will die. Of them, one might well say: good riddance.

Relief!

 A norther last night brought us rain and much cooler temperatures today. The wind is strong from the north this morning and distinctly cool. That was a much needed change after so much heat, and very welcome. It's the sort of thing one begins to expect in August. Much accomplished yesterday and much more over the weekend, I'm sure. Weather like this certainly improves my mood. 







Yes, yes-- seasonal changes are near at hand.

Very Hot

 But it's even worse to the east, off of the Caprock. Maybe some relief tomorrow. Maybe not quite so bad this weekend. The air is very dry.
