What's going on outside your home?

Just outside smoking a blunt over here during a severe thunder storm. It was in the mid 90s with 98% humidity today :hot_face:The pictures don’t do justice to how dark it was at first but the worse had passed now. Got about an inch of rain in 20-30minutes I say. I am happy the power didn’t go out again :slightly_smiling_face:

Currently 72º and not a cloud in the sky. High was 80º. Typical late August day here. We did have an unusual downpour yesterday. It lasted maybe 5 minutes, but it came down pretty seriously, as you can see. I love the kid’s duck bill umbrella!

Birds tweeting and maybe a car once or twice a day here. Very quiet area, we are getting ready for another La Niña wet season here. And being sub tropical the humidity is punishing!

We are in a terrible drought. I raise beef cattle and the grass is almost all gone. where there should be tall lush green grass there is bare dirt. We will start feeding our winter hay in a day or two. I am rationing water for my plants so that I can keep the animals alive. No chance of rain until saturday. Its really bad. :slightly_frowning_face:

That’s disgusting… I’ll take our dry heat in AZ any day.

But on that note… It’s still 106°F and miserable AF outside and I had to work in it today.

Very true! When I went to Vegas in August of
2018 I really enjoyed that dry heat. It was lovely!!! We had 70’s today with moderate humidity in the 70’s as well.

Do you have basements at least? Or a crawl space?

We really should have basements here. Would probably excellent to keep things cooler but alas I’ve never seen a basement here or in CA while I grew up there. I’d love to have a basement in my next place.

A basement is one of the few things lacking from my life.
