grasshopper Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 it's 85` and only 9:30AM. I set the A/C, in the doghouse, to 87` and it feels GOOD. this summer has been brutal. Yeah Yeah... ya git that when you live in a desert....the previous record for # of days over 100`, in a row, was 39. We're on 50. Even on the odd day/s that it did rain, it was still over 100` before the rain. I predicted a long , hot, dry summer... sometimes being right is no fun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 The temps were mostly in the upper 80s (F) for the three weeks we were in the Philippines. That was for Manila, slightly cooler in rural areas However, the humidity was running in the mid to upper 80s as well. The fun's over and it's back to work. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Hmmmm, strange. Got a couple inches of rain in the rain gauge overnight. Must have slept right thru it. Just glanced out the back doors and by golly there were two hummingbirds workin out on my hanging baskets. Tried the feeders long ago and gave up. Never saw squat until a few minutes ago. Made the coffee taste a lil better. Strange for sure. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invidiosulus Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 We had an absolute downpour yesterday in the middle of the combined parish picnic. All the food and tables were set up inside the nice meeting hall that the NC cooperative extension has by the county fairgrounds so the only people who really got wet were a bunch of kids playing outside. Today we are under a tornado watch until 6pm. It just started getting dark outside so we might see some rain here pretty soon. Oh yeah, I smoked about 50lbs of pork for yesterdays picnic. once the fat rendered out and the bones were removed we probably had about 20lbs ready to eat. It turned out pretty great. The KofC guys got there early and cooked about 60 burgers and 60 hotdogs. I think we had around 130 folks actually show up and by the end of the day there wasn’t too much left over. However I did have enough for some sandwiches for lunch today. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
