Console | Subject: Weather | RE: Odd patterns, consistent heat
[Text]
Monday 7/27:
Drizzle in the morning, partial cloud cover and mist in the afternoon. Weather remains oppressively muggy into the evening.
Tuesday 7/28
Clear morning, humidity high. Afternoon saw brief showers and continued to be hot and humid.
Wednesday 7/29
Humidity cleared a bit around mid afternoon, though the heat continues.
Thursday 7/30
Clear skies though the wind appears to have picked up – somewhat of a respite from the constant heat that remains high from dawn till dusk.
Friday 7/31
Low humidity and constant heat. Winds appear to be blowing from the east now. Odd.
Saturday 8/1
Temperatures have broke into triple digits and the winds shift direction constantly. Though the breezes are welcome, this is an odd pattern.
Sunday 8/2
Sweltering hot and very dry. I don't think these begonias are going to make it without some aid.

Ah, yes. To make this a bit less dry, I've decided to add some gardening tips. So three good ones today.
I thank you, and wish you all a lovely afternoon.

- Grind eggshells into a powder when using them for compost. It makes the calcium much easier for the plants to absorb.
- A great way for starting off a seedling is to put it in a hollowed out citrus peel (such as from an orange or lemon), fill it in with soil and then plant it. The peel will compost nicely, giving the seedling an excellent start. Remember to poke holes in the peel for proper drainage.
- You can grow roses from trimmings. A marvelous way to do this is to stick the trimming into a potato and plant it.
- And a bonus tip for farmers among us, since I noted squash and gourds are major crops. The weather has been hot and dry for the past few days and rain has been infrequent at best. One of the gentlemen at my gardening club uses a method where a pot filled with holes is planted in the center of the garden and filled with water. This makes it easier for the water to reach the deeper roots from squash plants and it isn't wasted by evaporating in the heat.
I thank you, and wish you all a lovely afternoon.

Gilbert, Leo and Zapp were quite heroic when they went to Phillipe's rescue, though I'm no story teller. I doubt I could do it justice.

Like a guest star. Someone who could do story hour.

You know, Mr Shudder and Mr Cormac only seemed intrigued about the weather. But I'll see if I can find someone able and willing.

[Until now, she'd just assumed he was doing it for laughs. It didn't dawn on her that there might have been a reason behind it.]
