Since May 1, we have collected almost fourteen inches of rain. That is enough to put a damper on anyone's outdoor activities. Today is the summer solstice, so we can look forward to warm weather, we hope. After all, we have seen it colder on the Fourth of July than it was on the fourth of January, but I do not think that will happen this year. Right now, the sky is clear, and the sun is shining brightly. With the temperature in the mid-fifties, it is quite comfortable. It certainly feels like a front has passed through bringing us some delightfully cooler air. The barometer has risen significantly overnight, and that accounts for the change in the air mass.
The weather stick still points down as it does almost every morning, and I am beginning to discount that. The remote weather station has now shown a change from clouds to a mix of sun and clouds for its forecast. The Min/Max Thermometer and the Weather Station Console are both forecasting improving conditions with sunshine for today. We need this not only for our gardens, but also for an attitude adjustment.
