We love to talk about all aspects of weather, the effect on our gardens, and on our lives. It's a good place to keep a record of weather in our gardens from year to year too, so for that reason let's try to stay as close to the topic as we can. Please join in and tell us about your weather.

67F going up to 87 no rain. It is getting very dry around here. Have had to water a couple times already this year. Before we returned (mid May) people were complaining is was raining too much.

It is going to be hot here again today with a high of 93 F or 34 C. The average for this time of year is 77 F or 25 C. It is hard to believe that last weekend I was gardening all bundled up with a sweater and a coat, and wool gloves. We had frost warnings. The weather has been so weird this year, back and forth between cold and hot.

We have heat warnings here with a temperature of 93 F. If we have 2 or more days of 88 F or 31 C , with night time lows of 68 F or 20 C, we have heat warnings.

I hate smoke in the air. I hope it clears for you soon, Linda.

Oh I wish we could get some rain, too. Thunderstorms went all around us this afternoon, one with deep house shaking rumbles. Not one drop of rain. Maybe tomorrow. Crossing Fingers!
We just had our 3rd day of 90 and we're now forecast for 3 more. I can't remember having 6, 90 degree days in a row Blinking and in June....unbelievable. It was sunny today, except when we were on the edge of the storms, no breeze, humidity climbing...I'm not liking summer 2020 so far....
