Seedcorn, those photo's you got in late . . !

lower 1 (lour, lour) also lour (lour)
intr.v. lowered also loured, lowering also louring, lowers also lours
1. To look angry, sullen, or threatening. See Synonyms at frown.
2. To appear dark or threatening, as the sky.
n.
1. A threatening, sullen, or angry look.
2. A dark and ominous look: the lower of thunderheads.

Should look up the history of that word. It doesn't seem to have much to do with the other "lower" as in to place low. Rather it is all "menace!"

We have had so many storms and so much rain- I can't believe it! I tried to find out how much rain we have had this month- but I couldn't find any numbers.

I hope you have some nice rain, DL. But, the heat wave? Yeah, that counts as severe weather!

Phoenix may have record high temperatures! Imagine folks . . . . What would be a record for Phoenix??????

Aaaannnd, around here - Seattle is suppose to retreat across the Cascades with its tail between its legs because . . . Phoenix is coming!!!! After a high of 63f on Monday, the thermometer is suppose to hit 90 Friday! Then, it is just up and UP some more! By Tuesday, the Weather Service has a predicted 99!

Sheesh!

I told the farmer last night that I wouldn't be surprised to have palm trees start sprouting! Every day it's either raining or it's muggy, muggy, then a big thunderstorm rolls in. Some of these storms have been pretty powerful with very strong winds.

Stubborn, that sounds like our weather exactly! The same is being predicted for the next week, as well! The one thing that is really growing here- is the mosquito population! I was weeding in the garden yesterday evening- and I thought they were going to carry me away!
