    Outside My Window ~ 01.06.2013

    Outside my window…is the end of the first weekend of 2013. Right now at about 10:45 in the evening, we are at 38°F with cloudy skies and calm winds.  Our forecast low for tonight is 35°F and tomorrow will see us with sunshine, blue skies and 48°F tomorrow.  Our temperatures have been seasonal of late…days in the highs in the low to mid 40’s and lows in the low to mid 30’s.  There have been rainy days this past week….I didn’t think we had received that much rain until I was working in the garden this past Saturday and realized how wet the ground still was.  I was able to…

    Outside My Window ~ 8.5.2012

    Outside my window…is sunshine, blue skies, white puffy clouds and a lot of humidity and heat.  A lot.  Currently at nearly 1:00 p.m we are at 88°F with about 59% humidity.  It feels like 95°F outside right now….I would say that is about right.  Our forecast high temperature for today is 89°F with an isolated chance of thunderstorms.  There is a light breeze currently blowing but it is not cooling things off all that much.  Tomorrow will be about as warm with a greater chance of thunderstorms and then we will cool off to the low 80’s for a few days. I am thinking about…how once upon a time I…

    Outside My Window ~ 5.6.12

    Outside my window…Sunday night….end of the weekend….where did the time go?  The weekend was filled with some wild weather, work and relaxing in between learning.  Friday night came upon us with rumbling thunder, wild and wicked lightening, wind and torrential rains.  The weather forecasters had predicted strong storms but I haven’t seen lightening like that in quite some time.  It was lighting up the neighborhood….explosions of light that made me nervous each and every time they popped.   The storms lasted well into the night.  I woke up early Saturday morning to sunshine and warm temperatures.  There was sunshine with a healthy does of humidity until early afternoon when the clouds…

    Outside My Window ~ 4.8.2012

    Outside my window…is the closing hours for Easter.  Doesn’t seem possible…Easter….April…already.  Where have the days gone this year?  I try to avoid wishing time away {I wish it was summer…I wish it was cooler}…it goes much too quickly all by itself.  Right now {9:15 p.m.} it is 57°F with calm winds and relatively low humidity.  So low in fact we are under a “fire danger” tomorrow due to low humidity and wind.  Our low tonight will dip down to 45°F.  Tomorrow the forecast calls for sunny skies and a high of 73°F…a low of only 50°F.  The rest of the week won’t be as warm with a forecast high of…

    Outside My Window ~ 12.4.2011

    Outside my window…is a fairly mild night after a beautiful day today.  Our high today was around 65°F with sunshine and blue skies.  This evening is partly cloudy and  47°F at about 8:30.  Tomorrow and Tuesday with be a carbon copy of today however rain will move into our area Tuesday evening {as well as more seasonal temperatures} and last until at least Thursday.  It was a wonderful day today…and I was lucky enough to have picked this day to put up the outside lights…this day!  🙂  Putting up the lights wouldn’t normally be that big of a deal for me because the people that I bought this house from…
