Good morning! Are you up yet? What's your plans for today?

[avator]

Morning...
I'm sure I have things to do today but I haven't made a specific plan yet.

[Lt. Dan]

Morning gang. I really want to sight in a scope on a .22 lr rifle. Can't really go into that on this forum. Airgun wise I would like to shoot my D460 .22 but the dang humidity is really what's keeping me from doing either.

Bill you heard anything from Mike concerning your Snapper?

My plans today, hmm? To avoid the heat.

Dan, I haven't talked to Mike directly but Bubba said yesterday that Mike said he was working on it  but didn't mention the status. He is an older retired guy like us and we know how we are.    I'll just let him work on it at his pace. I have the eXmark here so I'm in no real hurry, Nick told me again yesterday that he wanted me to keep the eXmark here.

Yep, this heat and high humidity definitely slows the production and especially the motivation of older guys.

He also works on the mowers on his covered patio... outside with only a large fan.

I agree James.

Here in South Texas we're keeping a very close eye on the hurricane. It looks like the projected path
is going to go right over McAllen, where I live. The question is , "How strong will it be and how much rain?".

Good morning GTA! Happy Friday! I stayed up a little late, even though I need to go to work today. I slept in until 0630 because I didn’t have a job on me yet. Oh well, I better get going. I’m going to finish up my second cup o’Joe first.

[avator]

OK, I am so over the heat and humidity already this year.

Ron, It's not much about rain, it's how long you are going to be without electricity. The wind will be most damaging inland. My cousin lives in Madison, FL and he was without power for 2 weeks after Idalia. They are about an hour drive from the coast. I had the eastern edge of  Michael's eye wall go over my place and was without electricity for 4 weeks, I am 18 miles from the coast. The wind and downed trees did more damage here than the rain. If you don't have plan now, now is a good time to get one started.

Yep, nothing like a "southern fried" summer. huh Bill.

[A.K.A. Tommy Boy]

There are many areas in the US that are seeing really hot temps.

It is a cool morning here in Mn.
It is 60 F with a 10 mph north wind. Humidity is 100 %.  With the wind, it feels more like 50 F.
We had thunderstorms move in yesterday and the temps dropped last night.
We have had several days in the 80F to 88 F range with humidity averaging around 60 % to 75%.

I have some errands to run this morning then cut the grass and weed the flower gardens.


Best Wishes - Tom

I still wouldn't trade this for the winters on the shores of Lake Erie in Northern Ohio or the Eastern coast of New England where I grew up and lived for many years. A few months of this heat and the rest is not too bad.

[Madd Hatter]

Wife and I have to finish cleaning up the house. Kids and grandkid are coming up tomorrow so......

Having weathered a few storms in San Antone and Scherz I suspect y'all will be okay.  High winds and some flooding from the rain probably.  Might get a tornado but that's about the worst.

Down here in Sunny Flarda' the memsahib keeps the idiot box tuned to the weather all Hurricane season.  Our choices are hunker or run.  The last four times we've had to run.  Fortunately the shack was always here when we came back!

The last spaghetti model had it moving a little bit more to the east.
 
It will most likely be a 1 or possibly a 2, but when it comes to ones property or life, there's no such thing
as a minor hurricane. 

I've been through enough of them to not ever take them lightly.

Keep safe Ron !
Southern heat more like boiled peanuts, I don't like either

Well, kinda morning..
Woke up at 12:30 am and instead of tossing and turning I decided to get up and surf a bit while I take a few draws of vape. This has become routine lately. I'll head back to bed shortly.

[Jshooter71]

Good morning GTA! Happy Saturday! I got up around 0600. I’m finishing up my second cup o’Joe and contemplating my day. We don’t have much planned today. Most of my lawn is burnt, but we have gotten some rain and the temperatures are much better. Some of my lawn here & there really needs cut, so I think I’ll run the mower. It ought to go pretty quick. I think I’ll finish up the back deck afterwards.

[Rabbit\Squirrel Killer]

Good morning! I woke up at 5:30AM this morning.

 The house cooled down to 72°F while we slept. It is currently 69°F on my back deck. Today is forecast is "Plenty of sunshine, high 102F, winds SW at 10 to 15 mph.  We'll see about that later on, we have been pretty consistently hotter than our forecast! 

 I have a volunteer that is supposed to show up to work on re-painting our "Baptist Church" sign, today. He is in the Navy and his ship is in dry dock so he worked on base in San Diego overnight and should show up around 10:00 AM. So hopefully it is cooler than it has been, especially than yesterday was.
 I plan on "supervising" him while he works on the sign. I will encourage him to quit if/when it gets too hot.

 I am pretty sure I will end up more involved than just supervising, that's not my thing.
