Your Weather, 2025

We had some smoke here too. The moon has been orange-red the past couple days with gorgeous sunsets! Luckily we can't smell it as it is up high!

we don't smell the smoke but it isn't normal as i usually do not bring up gunk in my throat all the time and have a hard time breathing. towards the end of the day the sky cleared up quite a bit and we could see the sky and the sun. still seems sorta gunky though.

they've changed our forecast to include some chances of rain for tomorrow (Wed) afternoon and the early evening. not large chances so i won't count it until it hits the ground.

I got 0.17" of sprinkles last night. Smells good! Our last sprinkle was early June.

Yeah we had rain in Oregon . A rarity in august. We really needed rain. It has helped the hundreds of firefights fighting 3 major wildfires. H72F, L42F . Light rain all day.

there are storms just to the south of us heading up this way, but never know if they'll get here until they do.

[and yes, we're getting some rain at last! ]

we ended up with an inch in the rain gauge but there's a good chance there was more because where we have the rain gauge is somewhat surrounded by cedar trees and the swing.

we really needed a good soaking so this is a big help.

pretty much chances of rain the next two days and nights and then a break for a few days and then back to chances of rain again for a few days.

it's going to be a muddy mess doing any weeding today but i have to get some of it done so i'll do what i can - usually there is a way for me to make some progress.

Wet is best for weeding IMHO!!

haha, not really in most of our gardens that have a lot of clay. i spend more time scraping mud off things than getting much done. a few gardens i can do that have more sandy soil and those are what i will get to first, but as of yet, today has been a useless attempt at trying to get outside and then being interrupted and distracted by everything else that i don't want to deal with but there it is...

i can weed pathways and decoration areas and other gardens too that i can go along edges, but as you can see i'm still inside frogging around on this computer instead of getting my butt outside...
