Thinking of converting our porch to a humidor. Humidity has been upper 60s to low 70s for days...unfortunately it has been a bit warm - upper 80s to 90s...
Forgot to mention that the AC decided to stop working on Sunday afternoon. Repair should be here today...

Boy, oh boy! I forgot how perfect a day of perfect weather can be.
After a couple of weeks of hot and muggy, it's like paradise having the windows open and a cool dry breeze blowing through. Upper 70's and low dew point. Same on tap for tomorrow, and then, unfortunately, another ten days at lease of hot and muggy. I don't know how you all in hotter climates do it; even w/ the A/C and comfy temps inside, these hot spells just wear on me something fierce.
This was yesterday...I don't know what the humidity or heat index was but 15 minutes in direct sun with the backpack blower on and I was completely drenched.
Complete Shade 101 Hygrometer is not accurate.
Temp sensor in full sun but under umbrella for table on deck
Running on the Black Top... fvck that!

118 today in Phoenix. A little after 7PM and we’re at 115. The radiant heat is roasting everything. Luckily we have low humidity right now. I’ll take that over high humidity any day
Strange... the Mexican guys I’ve known who have that name pronounced it “eye-zay-us’. I would have thought a person would know how to pronounce his own name, n’est ce pas? 🤓
Edit: But then, the video specified that it’s Brazilian. The principal language there is Portuguese. I’ve never known any Portuguese or Brazilians so it may be pronounced differently there.
So, why then, does the storm have a Brazilian name? Did it originate near Brazil? 🙄😜

I was in Las Vegas in July a few years ago and it was 123, but it was a dry heat. So is a microwave, but I wouldn't want to hang out in one.
The above seems to be how the Weather Channel is pronouncing it. I would prefer if they pronounced it a Former Storm and it just wandered out to sea. Unfortunately it looks like it will pay us a visit before it travels north to Edward. The current projected path would put the eye passing within 30 miles of our house on the coast. The eye would be west of us which means less storm surge but more wind and rain. We are definitely keeping an eye on Isaias and will probably be heading down this weekend to secure things as best we can.
After the craziness of 2020 along with Florence in 2018 and Dorian in 2019 I was hoping to at least avoid a storm this year.

For a change, it looks like we’ve got a whole week’s worth of moderate temp’s coming up....
I knew it would help if I would just behave myself for a while.... 😜

Here’s this weeks forecast:
Was thinking of going up to Red Bluff, but I think I'll stay home this weekend.

The next three or four days are going to suck but today is perfect. Barefoot and shirtless weather.

Effing hot and effing humid.

Beautiful day today.
Wife’s car said 107 yesterday. News was calling for 95 and feel like 105
Hot as can be. But being from NY, you don't have to use the snowblower.
96 here today.
meanwhile, looks like Florida may have a storm coming end of the week:

There's a blast from the past.
Well it has been sunny and in the 90s daily for a couple weeks, but that is fixing to change because of a hurricane with a name nobody can say. Isaias
80 during the day and low 70s at night. Lots of rain, we are living in a green world.

Sorry, wrong video.
Looks like it's coming to see you Edward.
Not too fond of hurricane season. Got a lot of very large trees within striking distance.
