Lava Rock

Gutner said tropical downpours. His forecasting isn't great .

hvy stuff sliding south

I don't see a lot of meat heading our way

Yeah the deck doors will be opening and closing a lot. May try putting our small dehumidifier in the room. Maybe that will help a bit .

thanks. maybe i'll just get a box fan. If it rains, there could be 25-30 people in the house

Regarding Saturday HHH, we have an open concept great room with 20' cathedral ceilings. Total sqft including foyer and kitchen is 740sqft. Too late to get a mini split, so was thinking of 12,000 btu window rattler. With all the open space, I'm not sure how effective a window unit will be, so burning $450 may be a waste. Plus we have large windows that lets the sun in, so I'm thinking the unit will provide little relief for our BBQ guests.

0.08" from round 1 of showers. Hopefully we can capitalize on some heavier stuff later.

hard to tell sometimes

Why do you assume "most" all the time? You sound elitist .

Always satisfying when u can fix stuff without calling the experts .

here we go again....

holy shite, that's ridiculous for Saturday. We'll be having 25-30 people over. maybe we'll be partying in the basement.

TMI

screw fashion. cut-off jeans ftw. My dad used to wear them and used a rope as a belt

Maybe have an IV bag of fluids onboard

Is this just thatch? We've had plenty of rain and the lawn looks dry in spots. I posted this in the NNE thread by accident, but got some suggestions for this lawn issue. Someone said red thread, but it's not that. Also suggested was to dig up a 6"x6" crap spot and compare the roots to a good spot. I've checked before for grubs and we've never had them, so not sure that what it is. We have three sections of lawn, all seeded with different variety. The other two look decent with no straw-like appearance, but the original seeded lawn, done by our builders in 2013 in these photos is the question.

I know it's summer and all, but we have our annual BBQ this Sat and no AC in the house (other than bedroom). 90+ is pretty brutal when everyone is out on the deck. Makes one want to drink more. Gotta have plenty of water on hand. Is it supposed to be HHH or just hot?

I've had red thread before in another house and this isn't that .

Good idea. Will do this, thanks .

I do fertilize; once every 6 wks or so. Last treatment was weed killer with fert. It seems to do this every summer around this time. Looks good in May and part of June, then starts to get the straw like look Meant to put this in the lawn thread

0.13" in shower last night. Left windows open in car and portable Bluetooth speaker probably ruined. .

I didn't know u were such a green thumb. Nice. I can't even get grass to grow .

How much land u have there? .

My wife's potted tomatoes plant leaves are turning yellow. Not sure if due to too much or too little watering. You should dry out some this weekend .
