Just amazing! Drought? What's a drought? I think I live in a swamp now. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvegas-wx Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Right on cue we are at the end of August and the mid range forecasts are aligning with seasonal averages in the triad of low 80's and 60's. Combine that with a lower sun angle (more shade in the yard) and the evenings will quickly become tolerable. Almost there folks. 5 weekends until October!
