Re: weather??

Looks good for sunday; typically there is no cricket for me to watch on the rare occasion that my day off clashes with no downpour ! Grrr.

Does it? It's just been raining here and although there are sunny spells, the sky is full of cloud and there's cool breeze blowing.

TUE

101°F 38°C
76°F 24°C
WED

101°F 38°C
73°F 22°C

Over here, hazy hot and very humid weather continues. When a hit or miss thunderstorms does actually hit here, they have been very violent and have caused alot of wind damage.

The hot weather is the most bother when cutting and splitting wood for the winter.

Culpeper County named disaster area


Allison Brophy Champion
Staff writer
Friday, August 10, 2007

The U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Thursday declared seven Virginia counties, including Culpeper, primary natural disaster areas because of the sustained impact on farmers of drought and high temperatures.

The disaster designation makes farmers eligible for low-interest loans and any grants Congress may approve. Crop losses in Culpeper County are expected to total more than $1.5 million with some farmers losing more than 50 percent of their yield.

In addition, many farmers have been forced to buy hay and haul water to feed their cattle, as much of the county’s pastureland has not grown beyond a few inches in as many months.


Well, that somes things up pretty well for how the summer as gone. Thankfully, we have a strong, faithful, deep well which has saved most of my veges, fruits, landscaping and lawn area for croquet and badminton.

Had a nice long rain last night!

Brian

Re: weather??

This is how bad a summer we've had....

My neighbour gave me some sunflower seedlings. They are meant to grow between 6-10 foot tall, with the flowers measuring about ten inches diameter.

For months I've nurtured them. They've had a weekly feed. They've been watered on the very rare occasion it hasn't rained. Slugs and caterpillars have been picked off and killed, and they've been securely staked against the winds.

Today one of them flowered.

Hurrah!

Except it's the size of a bloomin' dandelion, and is only three feet tall.

I don't think it'll inspire any budding Van Goghs to get their paints and easel out.

Re: weather??

I couldn't attach it as a file because it was too big, the photograph not the flower.

Hopefully here's a link to the weedy thing.

Mine may be small and weedy, but provided a tasty meal for a Wren this evening. I watched it in the drizzle, pecking away at the seeds for twenty minutes.

Oh no, I was glad it was pecking away.

It's welcome to the sunflower seeds...what few there are.
