There's time when we need rain, but I feel somebody has went a little overboard this year see.
This happened on Monday after a very windy & hard rain storm came rumbling through here.

Somebody...anybody please make it stop for awhile....:toilet:
It rained here the last three days, but, it was so hot, the water evaporated before it ever hit the ground. Over 100 degrees. 109 two days ago. AND IT'S ONLY JUNE!!!!!
Well, we are sweating our asses off over here, it does not get this hot! I don't know how the rest of you get anything done in the summer.
Now only if I could get this Camel here to drink up all of the water ....:evilgrin:

Yeah, I agree. We were sweating yesterday applying sound deadening.
It's raining every day here too. Anybody want to buy a convertible? LOL
105here for the last two days, today was only 102 ish. we recorded 107-108 at our house. but we have no humidity, so its not that bad here.
Humidity....Yeah, we have much of that.
It's been wet. And wet. And wet. We've been stuck in April-May since, well...April-May. We're under constant flood watch, and the rain is turning the weeds into trees. I can't even kill them because it's been raining every . single . day.
My only consolation is that being cooped up has forced me to make some progress on my Arduino touchscreen gauge project.
(no sensors attached yet...for the moment, the touch position is determining the readings while I work on code and bitmaps. This picture is heavily modified to try to show how vivid the OLED screen is...it's even more vivid than this, and yes, that's a stuck red pixel at the "3" :( )
hmm, I have an adruno not doing anything...
have oled's come down in price?
heat generall bothers most people more now than 20 years ago.... people tend to stay indoors near the AC more,, and get less seratonan or whatever that stuff is your body makes due to sun light.
There is much badassness in your post/pic. I am set on going full Knight Rider on my new Tbird project and have been looking into options of using one of these, in place of the factory clock, to monitor various sending units for the drivetrain.
Still around $180 for a Touchshield Slide...
I hooked up my compass and temperature sensors today. If I tap on the left half of the screen it shows Volts; if I tap on the right half it shows compass and temp.
And the rain is back :(
Yeah I'm done with the rain as well. I haven't had the Thunderbird out in 3 weeks. Every chance I have to drive it also happens to be a day it decides to rain ALL day :mad:.
I have to mow my yard every 3 days. On the bright side I haven't watered my garden in a week.
I want some rain...the vegetation is frying outside with all the hot, dry weather we've had. No rain in sight in the forecast either. Basically 80F +/- 5F for the next 10 days, and last couple of weeks...and to think that people believe we get a lot of rain here in the NW (think Seattle). We have many months of clouds and sometimes drizzles (day count with precipitation), but we also get low rain amounts compared to the eastern part of the States.
I could use some rain its dry and hot in the desert
Be careful what you wish for ;) Check out the radar for Philly and scroll a little west. We're about to have a hammer dropped on us, and again tomorrow, and again on Friday.
it was 104 today. starting to question my profession as I work outside. id kill for a couple days rain.
I was at work today for an hour and a half without power after a giant storm rolled through!
We got blasted yesterday. It's already flooded here, and some nasty storm came through again yesterday while I was at work. It was shaking the building, and it even blew over our rack of propane tanks outside! I think it's finally over though.
I was camping for the first two days of this nasty storm. My ol' 1971 camper held it's ground just fine in the torrential downpours and high winds.
Rain? I don't think so.....107 here today.
gotta love the rain, nature mandates we need it so we get it.......
but,, how shocking is this....

LOL! Reminds me of a 3-Stooges episode, where they were plumbers and were connecting plumbing to conduit, water coming out of the lights, etc. Ahh, memories.
We got two days in a row 80* temps and sun. Amazing I know. I actually got the Thunderbird out and drove it around yesterday to enjoy the weather.
