    Got the tweet today from the school system. No night games until further notice. We’re probably the 20th system in the area to take that step.

    AC was on here and maybe again tomorrow. On 70 by Friday. We could get another 2-4 inches of rain between now and late Thursday. Weather has been really spastic lately. Some days of highs in the 60's followed by highs in the 80's, some days dry some days really humid. I did get 5 dozen firestarters made.

    We had a fire stopper this evening after I got to work. My hunny ran into it into the way home, said had some hail in it. Yea, right at the end, that strike almost made me drop my phone.

    Been building small bark fires morning and evening for about a week. Got some rain this afternoon and built the first real fire. It's way too early for this.

    No fire yet. I did manage though to get up on the roof and clean out the pipe and the stove. The garage is stocked up with wood so I am ready.

    90*F highs and 70*F lows for the next 7-10 days in North AL/South TN. I'm so sick of summer, I could hurl.

    For sure no fires for a while as the weather has turned back to summer again. No, I don't like it. Went out to stack some wood this morning and ended up saying to heck with it for now. Only worked about 15 minutes and was not having fun so I quit.

    As amateur cutter said, the dewpoint is way too high to be comfortable. But so far we've not had to turn the air conditioner on. That could possibly change this afternoon...

    We had a small storm roll through about 5 am. Nothing big. My son who lives out in Colorado is up in the mountains camping said the night before they got hailed on. We are in a warm spell right now.

    It was 90 here today and only down to 82 now and just getting dark. 60% percent chance of rain today and not a drop fell.
