When I woke up yesterday morning it looked very much like a sauna out the windows...steamy, humid and hot. It had rained during the night...I heard it thunder.
I did some mowing so that it doesn't get too long before I get back to mow some more. In this weather the grass sure grows. (Similar to being in a Greenhouse I guess) Monday was the last of our very warm days for a bit...back to the 70's again...:)
We are getting a few more Yellow Pear Tomatoes everyday.

we are just going into a few more days of horrid heat and humidity here...thanks for all you kind comments on my blog!
ReplyDeleteI miss having tomatoes everyday. Think I'll try planting one for Fall and see if it grows...

We were at 98 yesterday, cooler temps are coming. Rain is good! Give those dogs pats on the head today!
ReplyDeleteThe humidity here is horrible and I know what you mean when you say Sauna. Rain is always so nice, but for us, it makes the humidity 10 times worse. I know the window boxes are beautiful when the Dahlias and other flowers are in full bloom. Hoping you get an abundant supply of the yellow pear tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteHope your trip north is a good one. It was really humid here yesterday but there was so much cloud cover it didn't get quite as hot as predicted. Still not pleasant outside however. We got some rain last night but no severe weather thankfully.
ReplyDeleteWe are in the midst of our August drought. Stuff is dying if it is not watered. Hopefully there will be rain this weekend. It is getting too dry outside.
ReplyDeleteWe had a huge storm last night. It will be cooler but no relief on humidity. It's tropical. My tomatoes are just starting to ripen.
ReplyDeleteIt's a sauna over here in Southern Ontario too - we have thunderstorms today so I'm hoping it helps take things down a notch!
ReplyDeleteI hope my tomatoes start producing. We've only had a very few. It really feels like fall here. Early fall. I wonder if we are going to have an early winter. Oh, shudder, I hope not!
ReplyDeleteI had to go back a post to catch up. Hopefully the heat will break and yuou can have fun with family and their dogs. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteFrom mid-90s to low 70s. I prefer the low 70s, any day. Flowers anytime we can get them, though. :)
ReplyDeleteSteamy humid and hot sounds most unpleasant. Hopefully your weather will cool down soon (and get a bit drier!).
ReplyDeleteWe've had a couple of days of cooler weather, though this afternoon is quite warm. My daughter did the mowing, while I did some weeding and cleaned up the shed. It sure is easier when it isn't too hot. Enjoy your few days of cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try Dahlias again. My Grandmother grew them and they were amazing.
ReplyDeleteWe had the threat of rain last night but it missed us and then we got a bit this morning which helped temper things a bit.
It doesn't feel so nasty out right now.
I have a headache and it's not cold but I am
ReplyDeleteRain like that would be very welcome here . We are very very dry.
ReplyDeleteWe had thunder and rain here during the night last night. It went on and on and it was hot and humid again today. I'm just waiting, waiting for some cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs,
