It was 50F today, down to 25F tonight, & 50F until Thursday.

Myself, and my woodpiles, are loving this ;)

Strong cold front came thru this morning. Stupid weather forecast at 11pm last night was for it to be breezy with some light gusts and a few limbs down. At 7am this morning the winds (48mph gusts) woke everybody up and then the power went out. To their credit, the crews got right on it. There's a fair amount of firewood there.

It looks like we could have some not so nice winds coming this way, I better check how much gas we have on hand for the generator.

I'm hearing that tomorrow afternoon will be the worst for our area.

Stay away from any big trees and batten down the hatches!

I hope your family gets through everything and can stay healthy.

We'll stay away from the trees and people when we can.
 
It's pretty windy here today. We were just under 70 Df yesterday for the high and today's high will be 49 with a low of 29 tonight. There were a few tornado warnings down around the Arkansas and Missouri border last night. Willow springs mo.....which is just SE of here has had 9 inches of rain in the last week. The local news station reported that the core of engineers is evacuating campgrounds below the dam of table rock lake and floodgates are being opened due to rapid rise of water level. It's looking like it's going to be yet another record year for rain here unfortunately.

Local weather station saying we could see up to golf ball size hail and 60 mph winds late tonight and tomorrow morning. Can't catch a break on the rain.

I was going to fell some ash today but since they're forecasting high winds for tomorrow, I might have some work ahead of me.

I'm sure we'll lose power with the rain and wind, hopefully that's all we'll have to worry about.
 
We won't have any severe weather but the next 4 days we have temps of 91,90,80 and 79. Saturday night they're predicting a low of 37 which will feel great.
 
Tuesday noon 29::C = 82::F real feel 37 ::C= 98.6::F
Wed. 33::C = 91.4::F reel feel 38::C= 104.4::F
Thursday 32::C = 89.6::F real feel 38 ::C= 100.4::F
Friday 26 ::C= 78.8 ::F real feel 32::C = 89.6::F
Saturday night 6::C = 42.8 now that's more like it
Being from the Great White North anything over 22::C
Is just to feign HOT

Same here but after the colder spring we had, I'll take the 3 days of this. I would also take three days of a steady rain, the last year it was this dry was 2018 when we had the garage built.

The last day of the burn ban here in NYS was May 14, they should've extended it.

I'm not sure if you're a NHL or hockey fan but I see they'll be going with a 24 team playoff format for this season.
