It was such a nice day that N.O.A.A. forecast that I went for an 11+ mile bicycle ride to go into town to transact some business. It was an absolutely beautiful day for it too. It was not too hot, and the wind was light and gentle. After the ride and lunch we started to work on next winter's wood. We did get quite a bit cut to size for splitting. Inkspot and Brownspot finally came home and are now safely lodged in their new homes. We tried a couple of tenderloin steaks last night, and they are certainly worth the effort that was put in to bring them to size. They were delicious and very, very tender. Just to note, as I was getting them out of the back of the truck there was a brief passing shower that went through.
The N.W.S. forecast light scattered showers for the overnight and enough cloud cover to support that (87%/92%/84%/61%). I did not get to look at the NEXRAD radar or Weather Underground model forecast maps, but t I would not expect a great deal of change in them from this morning. They forecast some precipitation for the overnight hours.
My Weather Stick was frowning a little. I missed the remote weather station forecast and high temperature, but the other two called for foul weather with falling barometric pressure. The high temperature touched eighty degrees (83.6°F/78.5°F/?.?°F). We seem to have gone from wither to summer in a flash this year. I think we will have some unsettled weather with some showers overnight, but we will see what happens.
