Weather and other things that matter at least to me.

Now that’s one heck of a swing or some very dry conditions!

Cooler temperatures have made it into NE Arkansas this week.  Our average daily high has been in the mid 80’s and morning lows in the mid 60’s.  This is all great due the the lower dew points, instead of 70 to 80 dew points we are talking 40’s to 50’s making the feel like temps much more bearable.  It was nice to be able to open the house up for a while every morning this week, now I can’t wait until I can sit on my porch and enjoy an evening cup of coffee without the mosquitoes trying to remove all my blood.  I know we can’t have everything at once but I am ready for Fall and Winter to get here.

Well I am waiting for one of Ryan Vaughan’s informative posts about the up-coming weather.  I hope the temps drop some at least the dew points.  Sure will be nice to be able to sit on the porch and enjoy a cup of coffee in the evening without sweating my butt off.  I know we still have a while before the mosquito’s go away for the winter well at least their numbers will drop and they wont try and suck you dry when you go outside for a few minutes.

Ryan’s blog is linked on the right hand side of this page and all my pages in my blog so check him out and see what he has to say, who knows maybe someone will learn something.
