A followup to Earthquake Weather in San Diego county


today: foggy, misty, gray

Hank and Patches were both freaked out with yesterdays 5.2 earthquake. They both jumped up, Hank ran to the front door and Patches just ran around the house scared.

I have tried both methods, it doesn’t help.

 I usually just stay still where I am until it stops shaking. I was looking at the book shelves around me and listening for my wife's reaction at the other end of the house. She stayed calm too and did say anything until we talked about the animals reaction afterwards. The cat actually spent about 45 minutes looking under everything in the house after it was over, like she was looking for what ever THAT was! LOL.

 One good thing about Mobile Home construction is they are made to move.

Ma Nature hasn't been a very happy girl lately.
At least with the females of the human species you can kinda predict mood swings.... kinda.

It's really windy and overcast but in the high 70s.

[Zsigmund]

 Sunny, upper 60s!   

[Madd Hatter]

Even windier today but clear so far. High of mid 70s expected.

The weather here is great and has been for a couple of weeks now.

And that's bad.

Out in the swamp huge hordes of crawling, flying, biting, insects are hatching.  The better the weather the worse the bugs.  The sand nats and mosquitos have already started.  And the yellow flies have arrived.  Bottles of insect repellent have appeared and the memsahib rooted out our "bug suits".  When the flies are bad we go around bundled up like bee keepers.  Head veils and gloves are a necessity.

The overnight low was 58°F. Today is overcast, with a forecast high near 65°F, with late afternoon winds WSW at 10 to 15 mph.

We have a 45% chance of rain showers this evening with only .04" total forecasted.

We've just been really windy- more so than normal.  We had 20-45 knot winds yesterday, and 15-30 knots today. 

Coming back from DMV in Appomattox yesterday to register my new-to-me OBS Chevy- a tree came down a couple hundred yards in front of us- might have been really bad for us but it hung up in a tree across the road.  Anybody in a lifted truck coming from the opposite direction might have problems, but I really don't like driving under hangers regardless.  VA Route 604 in Buckingham County is a pretty drive but... No ditches to speak of, no shoulder along most sections, no painted lines, and barely wide enough for 2 normal width cars.  Such is life in middle-of-nowhere, VA.  But the heavy rains we had a couple weeks ago followed by more a few days ago combined with the incessant winds have made us hyper-vigilant when it comes to trees.  We've lost several on our property but they were dead trees we were reluctant to take down due to conditions.  Now that Ma Nature has pitched in and brought them down, easy-peasy.

We already cut the field once; I salvaged a 27hp Craftsman mower abandoned a few lots down after the lot owner asked if we wanted it.  It's been handy for pulling some of the hung trees down.  Interesting mower- no deck, dual range 3 speed for 6 gears forward and 1 reverse, implement tires in the back, and a 27hp engine.  All it took was a new battery and cleaning the carb and fuel system, then replacing a rotten section of line coming off the tank.

Last night the low was around 27°F
Today it is cloudy and 55°F
The warmer spring weather has finally arrived.

Take the sears number on it and see what all came with it. If it's the one I am thinking it is, it's the heavy duty garden tractor that came with a 54" deck mower and various implements for garden work.

Upper 60s and sun again. 

[Madd Hatter]

Kinda hazy and very windy. Suppose to get rain tomorrow. They're predicting around.2 inches of rain. We need every drop. Predicting  a high of 63.

[Rabbit\Squirrel Killer]

The forecast here is considerable cloudiness with occasional rain showers with a high of 61°F, winds WSW increasing to 10 to 15 mph in the afternoon. The chance of rain is 40% with a predicted total of just 0.05".

Breaking into the 70s and sun today. 

[Blowpipe Sam]

The weather here is gorgeous with a chance of mosquitos, nats, biting flies, and ticks!
