That Dec price gonna start climbing We hope to be done harvesting today. Very wet and cool spring. A usual harvest is completed by July 10 or so. I can never remember it stretching into August.
July 28, 20232 yr I wasn’t so pressed for time, though, that I couldn’t bring harvest to a halt while I took a picture of two gigantic grasshoppers making love on top of my stripper head.
August 6, 20232 yr Less than a week ago we had a couple days over 105 and 27 straight days in triple digits. A cold front blew through last night with 80 mph straight winds, knocking out power in our area. It’s 57 this morning. 62 in the house. Power is back on but we won’t need AC for a few hours. It’s a nice respite but it will be hot again soon.
August 6, 20232 yr Author Nice in the eastern Dakotas and into Minnesota over the last 24 hours, and it isn't done. Rain makes corn; corn makes whiskey.
August 7, 20232 yr WNC had a couple days of 90 degrees in late July but for the most part it’s been a lovely summer. June was all 70s, July was mid 80s.
August 7, 20232 yr downright cool in Denver tonight... currently 59* and had to put on long sleeves to sit outside this evening 😮 lows in upper 50s the next few days. incredible!
August 8, 20232 yr Lost power for an hour last night from the east coast storms. Still had some Pixar movies downloaded on an iPad, fun slumber party with the 2 year old in the dark,
August 8, 20232 yr 59 this morning in Irvine. Needed jacket for morning run. Will be mid 80s today and mid 90s next week.
August 18, 20232 yr Just saw we are getting a week of high 80s and low 90s. Boo thankfully. It’s back in 70s after that.

December 10, 20232 yr Seems like the cops are going door to door in the neighborhoods that were hit like this one. Judging from the damage it hit heavily populated areas. Or the system of the tornadoes did. Damn. And it’s dark now. 💜 Edited December 10, 20232 yr by Nicole44
January 7, 20241 yr Author The Super El Nino got us this far without snow or cold. But all good things...
January 9, 20241 yr On 1/7/2024 at 8:39 AM, Parliament said: The Super El Nino got us this far without snow or cold. But all good things... How’s it going up your way. We had our second 10”er overnight but this one has wind. Gusts to 40mph. My lane is drifted shut and the power has been off since 5:00am. We have the generator keeping the furnace running but I only have 5 gallons of reserve gas. Evergy says we’ll get power back today but we’ll see. Worst case, I’ll have to have a buddy bring me some fuel. Power is still on in town. Edited January 9, 20241 yr by Shoxthemonkey
January 9, 20241 yr Opened up the 10-day forecast and saw a low of -12 next Tuesday. I'm in Tulsa. I did not sign up for this. ETA: Weather app was pulling bad data. Still looks like we are going to dip into the negative numbers on Sunday/Monday. I will still be sending a letter to management expressing my extreme dissatisfaction.

My dad (in his 70s) is convinced that the weather app is compiled by college kids drinking beer and saying “Watch this!”
January 9, 20241 yr My tenant just opened my lane with his skidsteer. It’s nice to be able to get out but I kinda liked being locked in. There was one drift where the lane drops down to the garage that was probably 4’ deep. I’ve been here 30 years and it’s the first time I’ve seen that. Lord knows we need moisture but I like it better when it’s rain. I forget, Kenny, you in western Kansas, Colorado or Nebraska?
