Rain and thunder is close but won’t reach us.

There’s thunder nearby but looking at the radar sequence on all weather sites it will miss us, I wouldn’t mind if we had gotten the rain because my two big water barrels are closing in to be empty and the cooler air would be nice as well. The cool air will come tonight though but […]

Doing everything while it is cool.

Another warm day here, My thermometers aren’t to trust when it comes to how warm it has been since both are hit by the sun. But I think that 25C (77F) is most likely. So everything I had to do today had to be done before it went too warm.  So I watered vegetables, trees […]

First week soon to be over.

The weather has been rather mixed this first week of my vacation. Everything from sunny and hot to a bit chilly and heavy raining. Today is really nice though, mostly sunshine, a nice breeze and around 20C (68F). It was supposed to be like this yesterday but like always our weather service managed to miss […]

Well that didn’t go as I had planned :-)

So my plan was to do nothing today besides taking walks with the dogs. So of course I’ve now mowed the lawn 🙂 🙂 The reason I did that was because we now are going to fill the holes in the gravel road tomorrow. We will thankfully be several people doing it (me and my […]

Too hot!

It is hot and humid and I really don’t like it. How many times can one shower in a day before doing harm to oneself 🙂 🙂 🙂 Mosquitoes irritates and horse flies bite but Alma actually managed to take one that was a bit too brave and flew a bit too close to her […]

Finally a mango tree in my garden :-) :-)

We’ve had a hot day here even though it started with fog. Still it wasn’t especially cool in the morning so the flies and mosquitoes were a bit annoying but since it did rain a couple of days ago the ticks were really happy. I picked away at least twenty ticks from the dogs, six […]

Midsummer.

The morning was just cool enough to keep the flies away but still warm enough to let the mosquitoes fly around when we went out on our morning walk at 5:30 am. We couldn’t stand still for especially many seconds before we were swarmed by the annoying insects and now all the dogs have itching […]

They’re guessing we’ll get rain tomorrow.

It has been so hot this week that we haven’t been on walks at all. Nova is old and Albins fur isn’t good at regulating his temperature. Even Alma has been a bit off because of it. I’ve been working in my old department at work and it’s even hotter in there than standing in […]

Poor little cat.

So yesterday when I came to work I noticed something fluffy and white lying in the middle of the road without moving. It didn’t take long before I saw that it was a cat. For some reason no one stopped to check on it and at that time there’s a lot of traffic. I parked […]

Lots of thunder lately.

We’ve had lots of thunder lately and today is no exception. It has stayed calm for a while but now it’s closing in again. I don’t mind since the heat will cool down for at least a while. Yesterday and before noon today the weather guessings showed that we could possibly get up to two […]

Two aggressive thunderstorms.

We’ve had two incredibly aggressive thunderstorms passing by yesterday and today.The app the counts how many lightnings we had within thirty minutes jumped up to well over 1000 pretty quick. It also stayed there for well over two hours, both yesterday and today. We didn’t get that much rain yesterday but nature fixed that pretty […]
