Thunder and lightning moved through earlier, so even now a singular rumble of thunder moves across the landscape. But funny thing, no rain fell. The driveway is dry. At least the temperature is down and the upper 70s for a change. Though I'm sure, the humidity is still high. And…
Wordless Wednesday
Looking at the photos above gives you a pretty good idea of what's happening in the atmosphere. We sit on the northwest corner of a massive clouds rolling out into the gulf. So to the east in the first picture it's full on overcast. To the south in the middle…
Not quite so warm, not quite so humid. It's 79° with a humidity of 88%, the day isn't quite as oppressive as the past few. And there are clouds building in with a promise of a 30 plus percent precipitation. Of course, by afternoon when the temperature tops 95° oppressive…
It's not quite as warm as yesterday but the humidity is higher. It's 77° with a 95% humidity. The humidity is so high you can see it... There's a slight fog hanging over the landscape. Well, my quiet week at home is winding down. Tomorrow will bring the grandkids home...…
Another warm and humid morning... The temperature is already 80°, the humidity is at 88%. It's one of those mornings that when you walk outside you have to wipe the condensation off your glasses... twice. It looks like we'll manage to get another day of no rain. At least if…
Well we've reached the milestone... It's 80° and 89% humidity to start the day. The sky is cloudy, and there's a slight, very very slight breeze. And so, summer begin s with a vengeance. I have an early doctor's appointment this morning... I guess early is relative. I have to…
Stepping out this morning wasn't pleasant. With a temperature of 78°and a humidity of 87% it felt too warm and too muggy for early June. One of the first things I saw this morning on my WordPress app was a happy anniversary note. It seems this is my 14th anniversary…
Isn't a pleasant morning out this a.m. The temperature is 75°, but the humidity is 92%. It's like walking with a warm wet blanket wrapped around your body. Add to that, but the buzz of mosquitoes is almost louder than the morning bird song and all is not right with…
OMG... I see blue up in the sky. For the first time in what seems like weeks, we are not totally overcast. Though, truth be told, it's still warm and humid... 74°. Not my favorite place to start the day on the temperature scale. On a secondary note... The mosquitoes…
They're slight evidence this morning that the sun actually does exist. Though, it's warm and humid, at 74 degrees this morning it isn't very pleasant out. The 10-day forecast still has us under a threat of precipitation for the next 3 days... At least for now. And the temperatures are…
Another warm and muggy morning. Overcast, with evidence of overnight rain on the ground as puddles. It's a warm feeling 73°. And the Gulf moisture keeps streaming up over southeast Texas. Luckily, by yesterday morning the low that had a chance of forming into a storm and the gulf had…
Another, in a long line of other, overcast start to the day. The morning temperature is 72°. And it's quite humid outside, which is only to be expected after the rains for the past week. The weather prognosticators are hinting that a tropical system may form in the Gulf off…
Happy Birthday Sis It was a wild and stormy night, thunder rumbled and lightning flash ed almost all of it. Just as it seemed the thunder and lightning show was over, just as I would begin to drift off to sleep again, thunder would boom and rumble... It's still lightly…
The temperature this morning is 74°. A very light, light rain is falling. From watching the radar the rain will be getting heavier through the morning. There is a frog singing to the rain somewhere close. And off in the distance the gentle sounds of roosters talking amongst themselves. The…
The coffeepot was still brewing when I came out... The back porch is pleasantly cool, the sun is bright, and the sky is clear. I have even turned the ceiling fans on... Way down low... Just to move the air around a little between breezes. My granddaughter brought me my…
It's another breezy overcast start to the day. The world is green. The coffee is hot. My wife is home again for another day. And I'm on the back porch listening to crows in the distance. This morning as I walked out, I heard a number of bluebirds singing in…
This is the kind of spring morning in Southeast Texas that you just want to cherish. Blue skies, low temperatures, hello humidity. The temperature this morning 63°. I can see the latest update to Android is going to take some getting used to {period} it seems as if suddenly you…
Wordless Wednesday
It definitely feels like summer outside this morning. The temperature when I woke up was 78°. The humidity is so high it's like a slap in the face when you walk outside. And while the precipitation chances are high today, the last I saw the predicted amount of precipitation is…
It definitely feels like summer this morning... Early summer at least. It was 76° when I woke up this morning. Humidity had fallen the double pained windows in the house. According to the prognosticators the projected high for the day is 86°. The really funny thing in the forecast is…
Mother's Day It's a blustery Sunday morning. It's warm enough, they say there's a chance of rain. From looking at the weather forecast for the whole USA, cold air is dropping down into the south... Just not quite here. And not quite today. Today looks to be stormy in the…
It was another nicely cool morning today, the temperature in the low 60s. It was more moisture in the air, the heavy dew on the car. We ended up sitting at the road waiting on the buses with the windows down. The year has progressed far enough that when we…
It's just another overcast and cloudy sky day. It's warm, it's muggy, and the prognosticators are saying there's a good chance of rain coming with the cool front... That hopefully, will blow through sooner rather than later. As I was sitting out at the road waiting for the buses this…
Well, the rain's finally broken... Or maybe I should say the rains have moved east. The temperature outside is 73°. The driveway is still covered in water as it rained a bit overnight. As a matter of fact as I headed for bed last night I could hear the dull…
It's a comfortable 69° out this morning as a light rain falls. We are still under a flash flood watch or warning, I can never keep them straight. The Cardinals are singing now out in the rain. But other than that it's quiet. I can't even hear the murmur of…
I woke up this morning to the sound of thunder. Not quite like last weekend when the lightning strikes were fast and furious, close to the house. But just an occasional rumble, a barely audible, just on the edge of awareness, grumble in the distance. Like rain was falling. And…
By the time I start my school day coffee muses, I'm actually already starting my third cup of the day. I start my first cup after I wake the kids as they get ready for school. My second cup I pour and take to the car to go sit at…
