I'm sure you take some breaks in between with the push one...

Another 1/4" of rain since midnight. The rain and clouds broke enough around 3 PM so that the Blue Angels could fly their air show routine today.....

Finally got 1/2 inch of rain last night. No more rain in the forecast until next weekend, though.

Another 29C day with not a cloud in the sky, meant to be cooler tomorrow which is welcome as I have to travel west to run an errand.

Mostly sunny and stinko humid here today, with the high reaching 86F with humidity over 75%. I was working out in the driveway on the getting-mightier Freightliner for a few minutes at a time.

On the bright side, the air show had decent weather for today's performances.....

Had a pretty good storm roll through this morning around 9am with a few lightning strikes in the farm field across from my office. Last night around 11pm we had some continuous thunder that just seemed to keep going and going.

Looking like one or two clear days this week with a lot of rain.

June (gloom) is practically over. Been sunny here for several days.

Sunny and 78°F right now, high is predicted to be 83. Going to the park this afternoon.

July 4th weekend will be in the mid 90s, with July 4th being 89°F. Not so bad... yet.

I'll take it (no choice, lol).

More thunderstorms approaching now, with on/off rain mixed with sun all day.

The governor has issued an alert for two more days of Canadian forest fire smoke on Wednesday and Thursday, but the AQI does not look as bad as the 400+ count we were seeing two weeks ago.....

Decent couple days on the river with the kids and their children, if you ignore the evening mosquitoes, only one horseshoe game, and getting embarrassed at chess.

Lots of smoky haze again today. Air quality is "Very Unhealthy." We have an air purifier in the living room with an AQ sensor in it. I opened a window in the adjacent sunroom and within minutes the sensor in the purifier kicked it into high gear. I closed the window and the purifier went back to its normal near-silent operation within a minute or two.

No riding outside today. I rode 22 miles outside yesterday and today I feel like I have a mild chest cold. We need some rain and a change in the wind direction.
