I'm ready for a cold/wind-driven heavy fall soaker. The warm/humid, hazy/smoky, mostly boring storm season has grown tiresome. Haven't mowed in almost 4 weeks, I guess that's a plus lol.

As expected storms blew up about 5 miles southeast of us lol. I guess we'll try again next time.

1.50" since July 30th here. Grass is pretty fried. Looks like tomorrow's stuff may blow up just southeast of us unfortunately.

0.01" here so far today. Another little blob of rain moving in from eastern Iowa shortly.

Great sleeping weather overnight, got down to 49 here.

Picked up 0.16" this afternoon, bringing the grand total for August to 1.19". 2"+ fell about 20 miles away down at the QC.

A little thunderstorm just passed about 1 mile south, could see tree line obscured across the way. Perfect way to end this shitbag month lol.

Looks like we'll finish August with a paltry 1.03" of rain here. MLI hit day number 30 AOA 90 yesterday, 20 AOA 90 degree days here. Surprised there was that much difference between here and there, we're usually pretty similar.

93/77/106 with very little wind and full sun here atm. Pretty oppressive out there. I'm ready for autumn.

Was hoping for some more Iowa scraps but the storms are crapping the bed along DVN's western border. Glad I didn't put off watering again. 1.03" for August. Hopefully we'll make a run at 1.25" in the next few days.

89'd here today, but MLI hit 92. They're really racking up the 90s lately.

Picked up 0.03" this afternoon. MLI bagged another 90

1st line skipped over, 2nd one veered south at last second towards more unstable air. Still managed to pick up 0.40" of mostly anvil rain. Enough to tease the crab grass lol. Wasn'y really expecting anything today so that's a plus.

Hottest temp of the year today at MLI at 96, here it hit 95 which ties the hottest which also happened June 11th. EDIT: Picked up a lol worthy 0.06" with the first line.

Had 45mph gusts with the gust front a bit ago. Temp crashed nicely.
