The 100 degree weather is finally gone, we have been 65 days with only 0.10 inches of rain. Been around the mid 80's now.

We have about a million extra people in Oregon to watch the eclipse on Monday. Roads are expected to be grid locked on Monday and Tuesday. A lot of businesses are telling people to stay home. Gas and food is also in short supply with all these people. I heard farms are renting out there fields for camping at around $400 a night for a camping space. Hotel rooms are going for as much as a $1000 a night. It's gone crazy.

Back to 100, while parts of the country are getting wind and rain. We have only had a 0.10 of an inch of rain since June 1st. Went from the wettest winter on record to looks like the driest summer. Weather is all over the place anymore.

It is unseasonably mild here for aug. 60's in the morning when it should be at least 80. Afternoon it is only hitting 80 a moment and immediately dropping back into the 70's. Been real dry. Hoping the rain the called for don't miss us again.

Highs should be around 80 but have only been in the low 70s. Supposed to warm up some over Labor Day. Got a good soaking rain yesterday. We needed it, some of the lawn was pretty toasted.

98 today, but never saw the sun with all the smoke in the air. We have fires all over. The lastest fire because someone set off fireworks in the woods. Really?? Still no rain in sight. We haven't had any real rain since June. That not our normal. Went out tonight and the truck is covered in ash.
