The Weather.

Today is a most perfect, magnificent day.

It sure was! Today is slightly more humid but still very pleasant.

Still scorching hot and humid, 80°F. But the breeze is stronger than yesterday, that's why tons of black clouds came over, and thunder can be heard from everywhere. We have a place 16.5 miles from here, its name's Kostua (Finnish: wet, humid), and all this stuff is always coming from that place because of the big "White" lake, which forms the rainy weather all over the region. They say, there lives an unknown underwater creature under the root snags (some locals saw him while fishing),- they call him just "Beloozerskyj chort" (the devil of White lake), and he's afraid of humans.

Hot, humid and just awful.

I was very pleased to hear (on local public radio), that Michigan is pretty much done with the super-hot, humid weather.... While Michigan's still a "weather wild card," we're supposed to have temperatures in the 70s & 80s for the rest of the summer!

It has cooled down a lot, there may be thunderstorms here later.

Another perfect summer day, today, then we are in for about seven days of yuck.

For real. Saturday was great. Icky weather since Sunday. Blah.

It's very bayou/swamp-like right now.... much cooler than yesterday (now at 1:30 AM, upper 60s F)... but it's very still, no breeze, and there's a slight mist/fog, almost like a filter.... and I can hear crickets & grasshoppers & frogs & bats....

Bayou... Very cool word. A found out that it comes from the Choctaw people's language Chahta.

Still steamy in the Nutmeg State.

 

[shyvas]

It's boiling hot and I'm ready to go out to a drinks party. I don't know
what state I'll be in when I get there as I'm dripping wet.

 

[Moll Flanders]

There is meant to be rain and a storm tonight and then (thankfully) the weather could drop quite a few degrees.

I was sitting out in the garden last night at about 11 pm as the house was too hot.

 

[Moll Flanders]

It has been pouring with rain. It feels blissful to me after the heat. It's good for the poor gardens and parks too as I've noticed that the grass has gone really yellow instead of the normal green.

 

[shyvas]

Thunder storms and heavy rain.

Today was magnificent! 86 degrees and no humidity. Absolutely perfect. I actually sat outside for 15 minutes and got a teeny bit of sunburn...just a touch of pink. I wish the rest of August could be like this but there's more rain in the forecast.

 

[Val]

It's been too humid for the end of August, and now it's a downpour. I had to take my chaise-longue away, while grandpa and Gala had expropriated the teeter-totter, so i have nowhere to sit but under their small house's alcove. But i'm glad i got home before the rain,- i hate dragging heavy umbrellas, so i didn't have it with me. Tonight i've been sleeping with my convection heater off!

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Very still... no breeze... quite humid (88%)... gloomy & overcast....

 

[PTree15]

Today is glorious! I wish all of summer had been like this. I did yard work and didn't sweat like crazy. More days like this please. I have finally been able to sit on my deck!

 

[Moll Flanders]

Rainy and a bit chilly. I can't wait for Autumn.
