Your Weather, 2024

sunshine yesterday but clear overnight meant cool this morning (had to turn the heat on for Mom). today is clear and sunny with temps up to 77F. some nights this coming week will be cool down near 40F. chances of rain starting Saturday night so i need to get everything dry picked before then.

i need to start (well i've already done some of that) to get the gardens weeded and ready for W*T*R... i finished weeding and picking the last of what i'll get from that garden the other day, so that's ready to be slightly trenched and debris buried and it raked to look tidy.

Frost on the car, frost on the front lawn – likely damage to the dahlias out there.

Running sprinklers on the veggies by alternating 4. One sprinkler is on 120 feet of hose, limiting pressure. Surprising how much difference for one on 50' hose.

Supposed to be rain by weekend , which will help for warmer temperatures.

getting close, we're already a ways past our normal first frost date - sure i won't mind a few more weeks but we probably won't get that much.

Nothing I would ever have said in the past, but this year I'm sick of summer and looking forward to frost. In fact I'd welcome a hard freeze at this point. I'd like to get the last of my outdoor work finished so as to turn my attention to indoor projects, but most of what is left to do outside requires plants in pots to die. I don't want to empty living plants out of their containers, even if they have gotten scraggly and beat-up looking, while they still possess some color.

Lots of rain this morning and gusty winds! Looks like a good day to hang out by the fireplace!
