Morning Cup Of Coffee And Weather

Well then, I guess since it's never beer thirty at your house, the clock you already have should suffice.

 

Thank you for the recommendation -- Dark Sky used to be my "go to" app --- but apple seems hell bent on closing it down...

 

Windy.app or Windy.com?

 

Thanks. I'm using Apple but both showed up and look a lot alike.

 

I like Windy also. Premium version updates more rapidly. My favorite radar App is Storm Radar.

 

This is a great app/website.

It's also worth mentioning that if you're camping (particularly out west) and there are wildland fires in the area, knowing the wind direction is *critical* for figuring out which way the fire will go; consider that people have been overun in their campgrounds in the past, and people's escape routes have been blocked by rapidly moving fires (being driven by wind). There was a situation a couple years ago here in California where campers were trapped and had to be rescued by air. Wind knowledge could save your life.

 

Only thing worse that fires are Tornado's --- Had one of those pass 1/8-1/4 of a mile from where I was at the time --- I was enveloped in the debris cloud....That's something I hope I NEVER experience again. Seeing trees fly past you reminds you how small we really are

 

I will have to check out Windy after I get home tonight

 

This thread has definately gone quiet!

Boy,where was this weather while I was on vacation LAST week. Woke up today to a crisp 57 degrees with a bright blue sky, and that beautiful warm yellow color in the morning sun.

I am looking forward to a high of 80 today --- which when combined with 57 makes today my favorite weather. Not too hot, not too cold....juuust right.

I'm not camping this weekend --- I have to paint the trim on a shed/barn, this weekend and pull some pretty serious weeds out of a wildflow garden (20x30 square foot plot we allow to do whatever it wants --- My bees absconded last year, but I hope to start a coupe new colonies next spring --- They don't have to travel very far to find a nice appetizer

I'm thinking about buyingi a bunch of clover seed too, and maybe turning to pure fertiilzers instead of herbicidal types. Its a shame people consider 'clover' as a weed, it really does have a lot of benefits -- bees being the most important, the fact it adds nitrogen back to the soil is another...

One thing at a time Sweeney...one thing at a time.

 

Maybe I’ll start some trouble to liven things up!

I’m slowly becoming a Milwaukee Brewers fan. I came from Seattle and Milwaukee stole the Seattle Pilots in 1969. Maybe I shouldn’t hold a grudge for so long.

 

It’s 62F after a low of 53F. It’s in the afternoon and it still it still feels chilly.

 

Great weather for doing some of those jobs that get you really warmed up! Like starting to put up the winters wood ;-)

 

It only reached 63F today. I had to put on a long sleeved shirt. It’s been misting out all day.

 

Only 86 here today in SC. Overnight temps in the 60s for a nights and low humidity are welcome. I’m sure we’ll pay for this somewhere in the next few weeks.

 

Viroqua? I didn't know that we were so close to each other. I am down by the river (I don't have a van) in Stoddard

 

You guys going to LarryFest this year?
