Tell me the "weather" where you live.

What's up with that 56% humidity. I had to laugh the other day when our local weather man commented about the unusually low humidity. It was 48%.

Humidity really isn't as high as people think. Especially here in central Florida. It goes up overnight and drops during the day. We get humidity in the mid 20s to mid 30s in the summer. Humidity was worse in Maryland. Mid to high 90s. It was like that when we were there 2 weeks ago. To be honest, I still haven't figured out the weather patterns here. Up north it was west to east. Here it can come from anywhere! More humid on the coasts, but they do get a breeze off the water.

The lightning is incredible outside. It's almost a strobe light sometimes. We're about to get blasted, but thankfully the storm is losing energy and should just get 2-4" of rain

As I said, by the time that mass of stuff on the west edge of the storm got to us it had lost a lot of energy. There was almost no wind as it came in. Just a small bit of hail and a healthy deluge of rain. Then as it left our house it picked up again and spurred a severe thunderstorm warning again and moved into MO. Another system blew through around 4am. Nothing severe, but a real toad strangler.

I did all the mowing yesterday to beat this, but when we get back from the trip I'm not sure we're going to be able to find the house. The grass is going to be 3 feet tall.

We are in the same rainy pattern as Part-Time Paradise. We are just getting it the following day. We have had 2-3 inches of rain today, but the sun came out and it heated up fast- low 90s. Humidity is ridiculous with all the rain. Severe thunderstorm watch now with warnings 2 counties over and heading this way. Usual Spring/Summer pattern.

Our long term forecast has a chance of thunderstorms everyday for the next week. At least the temps won't be too bad


And here's our radar. Looks like it will fill the pool again (I had to drain about 1 1/2 inches to get below the top of the skimmers)

Weather is beautiful. Took Mallory out for dinner and now back having cocktails on the balcony. Low humidity.



That is a ginger martini with ginger vodka purchased in pigeon forge

We had 98 with 108 heat index today. Most of this week the heat index has been 113 to 118 in our area.

 

[Stratman50th]

So if your at the Fort today, or anyplace on property stay hydrated. It's warm out there!

 

[Stratman50th]

I thought it was warm earlier!
At least the sun is baking the humidity down some!

Toasty!

Is that 102 in the sun? I ddin't think Florida got that hot.

Yes and no. Heavy cloud cover today. And it does get that hot in central FL. No offshore breeze to cool stuff off Jim.

rain...still. This is the rainiest summer I can recall- or at least in early Summer. I don't remember a time when 4th of July was rainy!

Will be living vicariously until we hit those temps in late October/November for about 2 hours in the middle of the night!

 

[StormyCA]

Right now it's around 70°. Predicted high 90°. We've had some really bad smoky days from the two big fires but the winds have shifted and it's pretty clear today.

It's been a weird summer here, weather-wise.
