We were never in the flood watch area. A light shower was it for us and today it is clear and quite sunny. Mild temperatures will dominate the week, but by the end of the week it will be very hot, probably in advance of another system of some sort. And so it goes.
It started pretty early today and it's been light but fairly steady. Hard to say how much more we'll get, with thunderstorms possible but coverage spotty. I'm more concerned for parts of the state that were inundated earlier, and they surely do not need more. If there is a deluge let it be in places that have not yet received much rain. But of course, where it rains and how much it rains, is purely a matter of physical law mostly pertaining to fluid dynamics-- and those equations are hard to solve. The processes are deterministic nevertheless. Morons can attack weather radar as much as they like, and they only demonstrate that they, and the people who think like them, need to be on heavy doses of antipsychotic meds, and perhaps lobotomized as well. It might be wise to bring back the old-fashioned insane asylums for such folks.
It was very pleasant outside last evening and cloudy and cool this morning. Change is in the air, and tomorrow is likely to bring more rain. It could be a wet week next week with below normal temps. Sounds good to me.
Today and tomorrow, quite hot but no records set. Saturday a big change is still in the forecast, with a week of below average temps and rain chances, actually storm chances, increasing. It could be a very wet week next week. So I'd better do whatever I need to do outside, what little remains, before that change. Yesterday I did the last major job so what's left is detail work but I need dry conditions. Death toll in the recent floods down south will probably exceed 300, and the FEMA response so far has been inadequate, to say the least and that is no surprise given that a MAGA moron is running that agency, and it's been decimated in other ways. That's what happens when shit floats to the top. In MAGA world, it's ALL shit, top to bottom.
It didn't look much like rain last evening but again thunder and rain. And the morning is clear, breezy, and cool. Feels good. We remain soaked. This is unusual. Humidity remains rather high. The air is fresh. Will this be the wettest July ever??
