well its rained all june here in wales. wettest on record apparently.
It has been impresivelly hot lately. I was outside at 10 PM and it was still to hot to be outside.
I'm glad I 'm not in Texas. You can keep your 100 degree temps. I'm in Wisconsin and it got up to 91 today and I believe thats the hottest its been here in a long time lol .
My concern is our aquifers and wells, some areas of Texas had large amounts of wells run dry last Summer and our drought is still going.
The floods in Wales meant that my chickens had to come and live in the house for a few days as their coop was under water! I wish we had some of the nice sunny weather... maybe you could send some our way :)
It's pretty wet up here in Scotland too, I've got a big tarpaulin over the coop to keep the girls dry. I've not had to resort to bringing them in yet, I hope it doesn't come to that!
I would be glad to send you guys some of our hot weather ... We had a high of 104 yesterday with an index of 120. The afternoon storms cools it down for a little while then right back up it goes ...
The humidity here is driving me crazy. Step outside, start sweating.
It is so dry and hot here I have not had to mow my yard for a month.
I welcome the humidity since it brings rain. Day after day of 105+ drains me.
getting fed of up of the rain here in wales, not seen much sun for a while.

All I have to mow is the stickers. They are pretty bad this year.

I would happily take the 105 if it meant less humidity. Humidity steals my energy and makes me stay inside.

Is that typical?
apparently the sun is to put in an appearance tomorrow, but I'm not holding my breath!!
not realy typical weather in wales, well it is in the winter, but our summers are normaly pretty good. its just been very wet here lately. a months rain in one day !

We've had the same issue. Consequently our mold count is high and everyone I know is having headaches from it.

I'm grateful for the rain, we need it, but at the same time being stuck in the house for days is no fun.
