This evening is a promise fulfilled. This morning's weather held all day. The temperature was a bit higher than N.O.A.A said it would be, but that was all right. There were a few clouds, but I do not believe that they ever covered more than 20% of the sky. I was able to cut and load almost 2 cord of wood, and the weather was perfect for doing just that. With one brief interlude of cool weather earlier this month, we have had what I would call a real summer. We have had hot days, sometimes with thundershowers and high humidity, but that is what summer is about. It has not been oppressive every day like it can get in Louisiana with the daily thunderstorm. THANK GOODNESS.
N.O.A.A. is forecasting some rain for tomorrow, but the temperature is supposed to rise again into the eighties. The Weather Underground forecast map is indicating another clear day for tomorrow, and I hope they are right. I am hoping for a bicycle ride tomorrow, just to do something different.
My weather instruments and indicators are forecasting the same as they did this morning. The only one that is different is the Weather Stick, which points slightly up potentially indicating some unsettled weather. The Weather Station Console and Min/Max Thermometer both indicate rising barometric pressure and sunny skies. The remote weather station forecasts a mix of sun and clouds. I cannot disagree with any of those indicators, and must call for another gorgeous day
