A break in the weather: cool respite
I was afraid to believe in the forecast of a 72F high on Sunday. It has been in the mid to upper 90’s for over a week.
Sunday morning started at 68F and overcast … at 5:00 a.m. Shortly after, the wind came up and the temperature dropped to 58F in 20 minutes. And it rained. Well, it drizzled. But, it was moisture.
And it stayed cool all day. I was able to leave the windows open, the fan and A/C off: blessed quiet and cool.
Overnight, it dropped into the 40’s making for a wonderful sleeping night.
The fuschia survived the heat and I enjoyed the blooms I cut inside as well. We are to warm back up, although not quite as hot and possibly more rain this coming weekend.
So far, there are 2 fires: 1 which has been contained and is burning out in the middle. BUT, high winds on Saturday night sent a spark from that hot center that ignited a 2nd fire. The fires are near the Canada border about 50-55 miles north of where I live. So far, no smoke or ash has come this way. Hopefully the forecast thunderstorms will have plenty of moisture, but it is very, very early in fire season.
Still, will enjoy this break in the weather and cool respite.
