The wind is getting pretty sporty outside. I think some of the gusts might have been pushing 40 mph. Steady 10-15 going on. It's only supposed to last 4-5 hours then more rain. It's been sunny most of the day so far though. The fir trees are dropping pollen and the wind is knocking it out fast so I'm definitely not outside breathing that stuff in.

It's really windy today, and some fool is burning. I've been hearing heavy equipment across the river, so I hope it is over there. (I smell the smoke, but can't see it)

At 1035 it's mostly cloudy, 77F with 79% humidity. 11mph south winds with 23 mph gusts. A forecast high low of 81/70F with 60% chance of rain today and tonight, with 70% for tomorrow. Rain should start around 1600.

Just a beautiful day today. Upper 70's and sunny. Great day to be outside except for the fir tree pollen covering everything in my yard. I have some tall ones in the back and there are plenty more all around so it doesn't matter which way the wind blows the pollen rains down.

It's not going to stay this way though as a cold front is moving in tomorrow and we'll see a 20°F degree drop in temps. They say by Sunday the snow level will have dropped from 8000' to 1000'. Which is good because there's also precipitation on the way and we need some more snow in the mountains. Might be some snow in the hills but not where I'm at around 260'

My cold front got here last night. I was out on the deck trying to wrap up my planting, and the damn wind was howling. Not as windy this morning, but enough to make it cold outside. At 1030 it's sunny, 58F with 31% humidity and 10 mph (17 mph gusts) north wind. Forecast high low of 65/43F with no rain until Thursday.

The extremely reliable weather forecasters said there was a brief chance of snow/rain mix this morning but nothing of significance.

I woke up to this:

At least the mountains are getting a couple more feet of needed snow.

We got up to 83F before the rain. At 1710 there is a thunderstorm, it's 70F with 95% humidity. Forecast low of 65F with 80% chance of rain tonight and 50% tomorrow.

Last night we got 2 inches in less than an hour. (with a slight chance of a pop up shower) My garden is a mess.

Cloudy, drizzly, and below average temperatures. Supposed to warm up though. My early crops in the garden are growing slow but they're growing.

We're currently under a snowfall warning for 10 - 15cm today/tonight. We're typically at around 10°C for daytime highs this time of year from what I've seen. Probably not as much of a blow compared to you guys down South though. May long weekend snow isn't unheard of here. I'll post a pic when/if the shit hits the fan.

I'm in Virginia, on the Chesapeake Bay.
Today it is 76 degrees, with a nice warm 8mph breeze from the southwest.
Sunny and the leaves on the oak trees are about as big as squirrel's ears...
Time to plant corn.

Good Sunday morning. At 0855 it's fair, 71F with 75% humidity. Forecast high low of 86/61F with a 40% chance of rain tomorrow. Even with the back to back days of two inch rains last week, we have dried out pretty fast. The garden can sure use the rain.

We got up to 85F today. After supper we had a pretty heavy thunderstorm roll through. It's mostly passed now, but we got near a half inch out of it. At 1920 there is a thunderstorm, 67F with 92% humidity. Forecast low of 56F with 100% chance of rain tonight, but nothing else until the weekend. The local weather guy was saying we are in the summer pattern. Which means it could thunderstorm at any time.

We just set a record for wettest April on record.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Portland saw its wettest April on record in 2022.

The National Weather Service – Portland said it recorded 5.73 inches of rain throughout the month at the Portland International Airport, putting 2022 in the record books for all time April precipitation.

Last year:

The record follows a historically dry April for the Rose City last year. In 2021, not only did the city see the driest April on record since 1941, it was also the 5th warmest on record. Total rainfall came to 0.39 inches.


I sure as hell don't want to break last summer's record heat this year. I especially don't want a repeat of June 28th 2021.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Portland hit a record-breaking temperature of 116 degrees shortly after 5 p.m. on Monday, according to the National Weather Service.

It has eased up here for the moment. But four miles away the weather station is still reporting heavy rain, 69F with 89% humidity. Forecast high low of 77/69F with 100% chance or rain today, 90% tonight and 70% tomorrow.

Never mind. In the time it took to type that, the rain has picked back up. 1.1 inches so far.
