We have been dodging thunderstorms, it may sprinkle just a bit so far, nothing measurable, but I have hay down is the reason for that. But mornings are starting to hint a little fallish, despite the temps being warm, just a feel in the air.

Fog this morning. THICK fog. My walk this morning felt right out of a Stephen King story.

...or The Exorcist... :disturbed:  :eek5:

Jaime, did you schedule tropical rain for tomorrow?

Your timing needs work... :disgust:

Well, if you don't like the weather around here, just wait a minute...

Tropical storm Edouard (who names these things?) supposed to get us a little later today.  30-40mph winds and 3-6 inches of rain expected.  All the local schools closed for the day, so the storm probably won't hit us now and the kids will have to make it up later.

At least it's a little cooler.  Only supposed to get to 89 today.

Just been hot and dry here in KC metro. 95-100. Weather guys keep saying we are in for the longest heat wave of the summer yet.

I'm just glad it's not snowing yet. Can you imagine how much we would sweat shoveling snow?

Hey Frazz, good to see you.

Its been sort of humid, sorta hot here, late summer monsoon weather that in normal years would have us a little soggy and cussing trying to bale hay. We have a lot of clouds, may get a sprinkle or if caught under a shower get something measurable, which we haven't so far.  Still cussing trying to bale hay as its not drying well, but at least isn't laying there turning black.

Well, no storm.  Just enough rain to move the dust around on the cars.  87 degrees, 187% humidity.  There's no toilet paper or bottled water left at the stores.  Another day in the swamp.... :disturbed:

A welcome cloudy, gloomy morning. We may actually only see 95° today, with occasional drizzle.

More lightning, more thunder, lotsa clouds, no rain. 93 degrees, 139% humidity.

We had cloud build up and move over and gave us 9/10's of an inch of rain yesterday afternoon.  Not nearly what we need but was so welcomed.  And our streak of 100 degree plus days has came to an end today!  Set a new record of 33 days in a row!

Ugh, we are not that hot, but have been pretty warm, mid 90s for a few days, some clouds in the afternoon that makes humidity come up, but we supposedly have a pretty good shot of thunderstorms Sunday into Monday, at6 this point I hope it bounces us got hay to cut so any rain is not as appreciated right now.

 But I see a lot more days in the long range forecasts that are in the high 80s now than we did most of the summer, the latest one had a day of 70s for a high next Sunday, which will change by the time it comes, but still a 1st predicted 70s for a good while.  We have been trending to be hotter than predicted all year, with the exception of a few days we were lower and wetter than they said we would be. Moisture has been hit or miss, mostly miss.

RAIN! Precious bountif--uh, okay...

...nevermind... :sadness:

We got rained on for thirty minutes at a high school football game 6 miles from the house, but no rain at the house.  Seems like it has rained everywhere in Houston but here.  At least the cloud cover is keeping the temps down, 83 right now.

Rain this evening for us. 3+ inches over 6 hours. I didn't go outside for an accurate look but the flashlight was good enough to see we are over 3 a bit. And mercifully 75 degrees for a change.

Had an unusual near perfect day weather wise yesterday, 80, partly cloudy and just a slight breeze.  But this morning what the heck, its ffff...44 out right now. We are definitely sliding into fall, even though we have some 90s coming still, I'm seeing a lot of 80s and even a couple low 70s for highs. After all the heat this summer its a shock to the system.
