I try to watch the news on all 4 stations [ FOX, CBS, NBC AND ABC].. That way I think I might get a well rounded report and weed out the bias..

Good morning Steve, they say it's supposed to rain here today but I don't see any evidence of it happening in the radar, beautiful and sunny out there now. 20° for the high today..

Good Tuesday morning Alabama, Steve, John and all everyone stopping by.
Another day in severe drought in WV and a high of 99°, full hot sun but the humidity will be low in the 30's%.

Hope Ma Nature is kind and the Tacos are Tasty!

Afternoon Steve, John and crew on a warm and sunny day. We hit 101° at 1445 this afternoon but with the warm breeze and humidity at 40% it wasn't that bad out.
We are still in an extreme drought!

Evening Steve and Rod, nowhere near as hot as that here thankfully, made it to 23° and we put more miles today on the old pickup with a trip to Dryden. There is a fair amount of bugs to wash off tomorrow hopefully before it starts to rain..I might have to be quick, forecast says it's supposed to start at 10 am..

Evening John and glad you had a good trip to Dryden, except for the bugs. If you don't want the rain send it my way. We are in the worst drought for many a year and we are listed as the worst drought area in the lower 48!

We topped out at 102° yesterday afternoon. Dinner sounds good, I haven't made fried rice - any kind - for a couple a weeks. And stir fry veggies for maybe a year!

I only made it outside twice today, once this morning when it was 80° and this afternoon when it was 95°. I am not going back out until in drops below 100°. Currently 102° in my woods and feel like 113°! NOPE not going out!

Good Weekend Eve Alabama, Steve, John and all the Dixie crew and it is almost time to get the long weekend Party started.
Steve, in the early evening some storms developed, and we had a nice light and sound show for about 30 minutes and a little needed and appreciated rain. The Soothsayers predict 90's and sunny but maybe another storm or two in the early evening. I HOPE!
After the rain yesterday it dropped to a comfortable 69°.

John, what is happening in your woods today?
