    Outside My Window ~ 7.03.2016

    Outside my window….is a cool 70°F with heavy cloud cover afternoon.  Lots of humidity too ~ 87%.  It poured rain this morning….all morning.  The flood canal in back was well over the banks and the side yard was deep with standing water.  The grounds are saturated now.  I like how everything is so clean….so lush and green…after a rain.   It isn’t raining now – hasn’t been for a couple of hours.  It is about 2:50 Sunday afternoon and the skies look like they may not be finished with the rain.  There is a 40% chance of rain in my area for the rest of the night.

    Outside My Window ~ 2.20.11

    Outside My Window…has been pretty amazing these past few days.  Friday we had a high temperature of 75°F….well over our average for this time of year.  Yesterday wasn’t as warm at 64°F, but still above our average of 51°F for this time of year.  Friday and Saturday had a bit of wind, but it didn’t take away from the sunshine and warm temperatures.  Absolutely beautiful!  Today is a little cooler still with a current temperature of 45°F and an expected high of 51°.  There is a slight breeze outside, but not quite as strong as it was yesterday.  There are some high clouds at 11:30 this morning that is making our day…

    Dodged A Bullet

    Looks as if the East Coast dodged a bullet this weekend……Hurricane Bill is forecasted to pass between the United States and Bermuda.   Thanks to a front that is moving east, it is not expected to make landfall anywhere in the US.  The only impact we will probably have will be increased wave action and rip currents if it stays on this course.  Here’s hoping that front continues moving east and doesn’t stall ~ otherwise, it could get dicey folks!!
