Good morning!!!!

Good (Saturday) morning. Overnight Low of 4.6C, it's overcast and calm. There was another 1.0mm of rain in the gauge @ 0900. It's presently 13.5C.

The 'rain event' is still predicted for tomorrow and into Monday, perhaps 35mm, but the 'Flood Watch' warning (and now there's a 'Sheep Graziers' warning) is a precautionary alert to get livestock to higher ground. It's not going to be all that bad, we're just saturated from fairly steady rain over the months due to La Nina... which the BoM has declared that we're heading into a third year of this.

Of course, three years ago we were coming out of a drought situation. It's all cyclical. :)

That's about it, take care all.

I went out right before dark to investigate where to punch a hole in the garage wall for my starlink cable. Pulled back a piece of vinyl siding under the dish, drilled small pilot hole which didn’t go all way thru, got longer bit and hit insulation, Then drilled 3/4” hole. Went inside in crawl space and couldn’t find the hole, back out and stuck long drill bit it. Back inside finally found it, having to feel up behind the insulation. So got my starlink router upstairs in utility room that my mobley sits in, now I can move whole house to starlink.
What started out as just checking it out finished with the job done.
Now I can move extension ladder back to the barn.

Kitty missed me. I won’t wake her to go move the house internet cable.

Good evening all. 73ºF for the start, calm wind, mostly clear sky. Light wind with some moderate gusts, partly cloudy sky, and high temp was 95ºF, HI 98ºF. Bike rid to start day, mowed the few patches still growing, and cleaned fridge coils. Had to use compressed air, no room to work brushes on anything but front side :(. Turned shop vac and wife's vac in back. Got most of dust off coils and in vacs. Celebrated with nap :) Tried Korean BBQ tonight, spicy but good.

Doug, sorry that Leslie had such a bad turn in health. Hope they can get whatever is causing it under control. Thoughts and prayers are with you!

David, tell Sophie I'll be waving at her! Enjoy the bachelor time!

It's been a busy day, nothing work wise, but merely a bunch of errands.

Ordered a bunch of parts for the jeep, I'll go locally for a few bearings tomorrow, and get back to work on it. Broke the bad news to the daughter and boyfriend.... he sent another couple hundred bucks to get the rest of the parts.

No rain today, not even any distant storms.... they all moved west to Arizona. Sophie might be getting a little wet, but nothing like home, I'm sure.....

Have a good evening!

57 going to 81. Nice.

Alien, prayers for your wife.

Still suffering from super slow internet. So not seeing all your pix.

Don, saw yours...looks like a nice big tractor you'll be using. I enjoy not having a cab, but the dust does get old.

Had a great hike in the mountains yesterday as the humidity fell to a level not noticeable, and temps in mid 60s. Seems like lots of other folks got bit by the mountain bug on a cool day...haven't seen that many other hikers all summer combined.

Good Morning.
I’ll second Drew’s description of our weather.

Have a meeting this morning, might fly the little plane to Millville NJ for lunch if the timing works out, not much else planned.
