Spring/Summer '24 Banter and Complaint Thread
King James replied to IWXwx's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
The sky was brown by me the other night. Unfortunately they are just trading farm land for solar farms. Probably time to go hyperlocal with gardens in front yards and backyard chickens Things are only getting worse with the land -
Kankakee county in IL on the IN border. We had good spring rains and my parents on the other side of town had a huge downpour last week It’s just been unlucky hyper-locally lately. Went fishing the last two days and keep getting snagged along the shore. The river has receded some. We did get some showers this AM which was nice. Will still have to water but I’ll take it
-
Had to water the garden every day since we put it in May 22nd. Rain has been hard to come by
-
Another bust locally with the rain. I can’t remember a longer span with so little rain in the last 6 years
-
Lol
-
Nothing here. Feels good To add, really need some rain down here in IKK. Been quite awhile now since we have gotten any meaningful precip
-
Where da sun?
-
Not really that rainy of a day today locally. Another “bust” precip wise
-
I work outside and don’t have AC in my house. We’ve grown too comfortable IMO and the long hot days are just part of the experience. To each their own for sure, but I need windows wide open and a shade tree.

Let’s go, a hot humid summer sounds awesome.
-
Some of us need rain brudda. Been very dry in my parts the last two weeks

Not a drop here yesterday. Been 8+ days since any rain. -
Looks like a miss here

70/65 with full sun. Would be disappointed if we don’t get some bangers today
-
Kind of in contrast to ALEK up north of the city, south by me is pretty warm, humid, and hazy.

They got that watch up real early

Yeah no cicadas here in Kankakee. We’ve probably raped the land sufficiently enough over the last century to wipe them out -
Spring/Summer '24 Banter and Complaint Thread
King James replied to IWXwx's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
This spring / summer has reminded me of my childhood. This spring feels very nostalgic, like the springs I remember. If we can get a squall going tonight, lighting up the skies to the west just before dark, it’ll be perfect I remember these days as a kid asking my parents “is it going to get us?” I feel that way about tonight. -
LOT sounds pretty high on the severe event

Regardless, the grid is going down at some point soon, by hook or by crook. Hope all my weather friends have fresh water, canned food, candles, batteries, and God. Goodluck friend .

Coming for your grid
