They are building a 16 house subdivision around the corner from me, so I mostly hear beeping trucks. But hey, if you want to drop $1.7M+ on a house you can be my neighbor and you won't even have to buy a weather station!
Along with the lack of rain has been a lack of wind recently. True doldrums. The clumps of cicada leaves falling off the trees today gave me that thought.
I’m actually hoping for a bit of rain today. Despite the overall humid murk, it has been really dry over the last 3+ weeks. I’m at 0.08” so far for October.
Actually had to close the windows up again since it popped to 74 and it is still kind of humid out with everything so wet. Looks like there is a second surge of drier air coming this evening.
The UHI problem is well-known and accounted for in larger-scale analyses.
This summer wasn't super hot, but it shouldn't have been based on where the ridge set up in the west. It is actually kind of sad that we didn't end up below normal. I think the late season humidity also skewed perception of the summer.
It is fun to crap on Kirk, but he led game-winning type drives in both games this season, only to see his star RB “fumble” (air quotes because the booth f-d up the review) and his kicker miss.
