Clouded up this afternoon. Scattered thunderstorms, though none over me. Under sever thunderstorm watch/warnings. All this has brought the temp done to 82/95. Much cooler than at lunch..

97 with a heat index of 115 right now.  We are supposed to get to 100 today and tomorrow.  They are saying 40% chance of rain on Saturday and it is supposed to cool down a bit then too.

89.9 with heat index of 103. Was predicted to be 99 today but it got overcast early so kept temps down some. Nasty storms coming up from the gulf. Should get here around 5 if they don't break up first.

May be to visit, but not live.

73 and have my room AC in, room is 70, not much difference, but didn't have AC in would be a lot warmer in here.

I'd be freezing. My a/c is set at 77 and I still get cold. Must run it though or I can't breathe for the humidity. The a/c takes the moisture out of the air.

We actually got rain drops. Not enough to wet the ground under the trees. But rain is rain. I'll take it.

Post by: sunsoaker on Jul 31, 2012, 08:44:06 PM
It stormed here from about 9 a.m. until around 3ish. Glad I didn't leave work at lunch today. Actually helped me make that decision. lol

My last post was at 5:50 am, never made it out of the mid 70's all night, that east wind is the culprit.

Now just about 11:30, sunny, 85, east wind up to 15 mph.

Sunny and hot, 91, wind seems to be dying off. Humidty: 19%

Too hot for me, sure glad its not something that sticks around for days and days or weeks, cooling off Monday or Tuesday.

Today in the California desert topped out at 86*. Humidity is 36%.
We will get the heat beginning on Monday, I think. I actually should have worked outdoors today more while I had the chance.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Jim on Aug 05, 2012, 12:05:08 PM
Just had a small rain shower that lowered the temp considerably.  We had got up to 89 but sitting at 78 now after .17 inches of rain.  Good thing we mowed yesterday, because it would be too wet today!

Sunny, 70, calm. Made it to 91 yesterday, too hot.

Portland metro area seen record heat, most areas near or above 100, it was 102 in Portland, 103 in Vancouver. Cooler today, but still hot.

Thunder rumbling this afternoon with a few showers now and then.  Guess it's raining in Iowa Pennsylvania too as the race is in rain delay.

Currrently 94°. 100° with heat index. Forcast for today: Mostly cloudy with a chance of a thunderstorm and a chance of rain, then thunderstorms and rain showers in the afternoon -- So far no rain. Alternating between clouds and blue sky.

Clouds seem to be around, they say chance of thunderstorm, not sure where.

Post by: Jim on Aug 06, 2012, 08:43:48 AM
Our week is forecast to be typical of our summer.  Hot most of the day with afternoon thunderstorms.  I think it's 60% chance of rain for the next three days, then down to 40% before going back up to 60% on Friday.  I won't get anything done outside if that is the case.

Currently 79° with 100% humidity.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: sunsoaker on Aug 06, 2012, 02:20:15 PM
It's been raining since 9 a.m. with no end in sight. Ugh.

William, it's that 87% humidity that makes it uncomfortable.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: wimc on Aug 06, 2012, 02:33:52 PM
A bit more uncomfortable now, temp 74, humidity 71%, very very light breeze at times.

We are topping 100 out there. But at 19% my coolers are doing their jobs.

Title: Re: How's your Weather #36

94 with a heat index of 102.  They were saying we might get another thunderstorm this evening, but I'm hoping to get finished with the yard before that gets here.  Would be nice to have 2 days in a row with no rain.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36

They said rain would be back on Thurs. They lied. It's not only been raining all day - its been storming.

100 and rising still at 3 pm. But 22% and my coolers are working indoors.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Jim on Aug 24, 2012, 11:07:01 AM
All this rain has kept it cool.  The pool water is down to about 82 and that's a bit cool when it's only 80 outside.  We had almost another inch of rain yesterday which puts our monthly total at about 3.88 inches so far.  By the time it dries up enough for me to mow again, I'll probably have to use the bushhog.  I'm afraid the regular mowers just won't get through it.  

We've only had 7 days this month that it hasn't rained.  I think we are past the drought even though they are still saying we are in one.

77 out there right now which is quite cool for August.  Humidity is at 85% though so the air feels heavy.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Tina on Aug 24, 2012, 12:28:25 PM
9:30 on an August morning and it has yet to reach 70*. I'll take it.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: sunsoaker on Aug 24, 2012, 02:31:36 PM
Jim,yor rain sounds like ours only our monthly total is moe like 9 to14 inches depending on where you are. And now we got a Isaac coming. they did finally take us out of drought officially.

I drove to San Diego once when it was raining on the northbound side of the four lane highway but not the southbound. It was funny.
It is after 1 pm and still only 82*.

Post by: sunsoaker on Aug 25, 2012, 01:50:04 PM
Currently it's 90° with a heat index of 97° -- Hot.

As of the lastest updates, they have Isaac coming in right on top of us as a Cat 2 storm next Tues. Still more than enough time for things to change, but its not looking good.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36

I have been watching Isaac. Even as a TS it is causing major issues. Take care, Barb.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Jim on Aug 27, 2012, 08:29:29 AM
I was hearing that it was going to be between Pensacola and Panama City.  Now they are saying it is taking aim at New Orleans. 

We finally had 2 days this month without any rain.  Up until that point we had only had 7 days without any rain and had a string of 8 in a row before Saturday.  We finally got the grass mowed on Sunday.  Took about 6 hours and the yard looks like a hay field.  I may have to use the yard sweeper on it and then pick up the piles of cut grass before its done.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: sunsoaker on Aug 27, 2012, 02:29:16 PM
Yup, headed for N.O. It's kinda breezy and overcast right now. They say we will get 45 mph w/gusts to 55 and a ton of rain. Most of Bay County will be closed down tomorrow (schools, gov. offices, etc.) But so far no word on us being closed. Probably wont either.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Jim on Aug 28, 2012, 09:10:22 AM
They are forecasting 60% today and tomorrow for us.  It's raining in Sumter right now and rained a bit on me all the way to work.  Looking at the radar it looks like it might be a slow steady rain at the house.  The rain gauge only shows .02 and that was between 5 and 6 this morning.  77° with 99% humidity still feels muggy out.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: sunsoaker on Aug 28, 2012, 02:20:53 PM
I am sure you've gotten much more by now. The radar has been showing a big feeder band going across SC & GA. I on the other hand, haven't gotten any rain so far. It was wet this morning when I left but not raining. It's partly cloudy and quite windy. 91 with 101 heat index. very muggy. However, the bay & gulf is trying to come up  into our streets.
Title: Re: How's your Weather #36
Post by: Jim on Aug 28, 2012, 03:09:05 PM
It's been raining off and on all day.  The gauge at the house is reporting .21 so far today.  The radar shows rain over most of SC.  We were mentioned on The Weather Channel in one of the recent reports.  Something about the outer bands of rain lifting to blanket SC.  We can deal with the rain, just don't want any of that wind.

This cool weather will keep the grass from growing so fast as well.

Still too dry around these parts, may change end of this week, hopefully. Been around 3 months without rain, did have one day where it was just light rain for short time, but didn't help nothing.

Sunny, 56, very light easterly breeze, humidity 36% (gone up from having 10 to 15% with stronger easterly flow).
