It's the start of another month. But, it's the same old same old when it comes to weather. Overcast, looking very rainy, warm, muggy, just plain depressing looking. The temperature this morning is 76 degrees. The humidity is at a stomping 92%. Welcome to Southeast Texas in summer. I saw…
It's already warm outside, 76°. The humidity is high as it is every morning. And really, there's not much of a breeze blowing at all... For a change. And it's Memorial Day... In a way it's a sad day. A day of reflection. A day of looking back and where…
Friday night brought a horrendous lightning storm over our house which took the power away just before midnight. The power was out all night and didn't come back on until almost 7:00 a.m. on Saturday morning. So my muse yesterday was non-existent almost like my sleep the night before. I…
Another warm and muggy morning. More clouds out than yesterday. But the sun is breaking through here and there. The temperature was 75° and I'm sure the humidity is pushing 90%. But there's no wind... Not a breeze... Not a stirring to move the leaves. Today is the last day…
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…
I was busy with busyness this morning. I took my shots but didn't sit and muse... So here's the pictures.
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…
It's 68° and raining. Thunderstorms are moving through the area... And according to all the forecasts they will be all week. Yesterday was rainy off and on, Sunday was rainy almost all day, and from the looks of the radar today will be a wet one. But hey, my laundry…
After slowly raining all day yesterday today is warm and muggy. The temperature right now at 9:00 a.m. is 77°. It's still mostly cloudy and it's predicted to rain most of the day... Or at least there is a chance of thunderstorms most of the day. Once again the wife…
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…
I already miss the cool morning temperature of yesterday. It's 71° outside this morning. It's going to be a hot one today. Looking at the satellite images and the radar images there's just a bit of moisture moving in off the gulf. As you can see in the images above…
Walking out this morning was a surprise. The temperature was 58°,... Unexpected. Skies are clear. The sun is bright. A beautiful spring-like morning. My wife made the comment yesterday that there were only three more weeks of school. That means another summer with prototeens in the house. It should be…
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…
I had things to do this morning. So I didn't manage to get my coffee muses down. But I did take these photos. The day started out in the mid-70s, kind of misty. Not the way I prefer my spring days to start. More like an almost summer day. The…
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…
