What's the temperature where you are???

Livestream Tuesday
I didn’t even look at my own text I posted earlier this morning
Where’s my parka ?!?!?
What ??? I don’t own a parka !!!

High 89 yesterday
80 today
70 tomorrow
&&. 43 Thursday morning low

As I get older (63) my body doesn’t like the extreme differences from one day to the next
That day a few days ago that I had to use my blanket was a 30 degree plus change (only the morning low) that I was not expecting

98F
6% humidity
sunny

Finally done with the triple digit temps (I hope)! 🎉 98F is still WAY too hot for October but it's a little better than 104F.

The yard and house need a ton of work and clean up from the damage caused by the tornado and all the other summer storms. We haven't been able to do anything because the extreme heat prevents us from being outdoors for about six months of every year. Everything's just been sitting there in a big ugly mess.

As we get closer to the end of the Hell Months the nights start cooling down first. You can't work at night and keep your neighbors up, but you can work a little in the mornings before the heat ramps up again. This morning I was able to work outdoors until 9:00. 👍

When the Hell Months are over and we're back into more normal weather, it becomes a race to get a year's worth of work done in six months before the heat hits again.

We've been penned up for six months. I feel like a horse champing at the bit right before a race. I want to start, I want to go. 🏇
 
Wednesday 16th of October 7.37a.m. Mostly cloud cover. 3.7 / 5.5kph W, Hg 61%, 14C / 58.5F top of 20C / 68F. My yard temp 11C / 51.8F. Partly cloudy.

Moon is 96.3% she is cold!

Atmospheric phenomenon Steve spotted over south-east SA following Aurora Australis​

Sky-gazers in South Australia's south-east have spotted a mysterious atmospheric phenomenon called Steve.

The arc of purple and white light in the night sky was seen from the south coast to Kingston South East and east to near Bordertown last Friday.

The phenomenon was first named in 2016 after a looming hedge called Steve in the children's movie Over the Hedge, but scientists later gave it the "backronym" Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement.

Monique McGregor took a photo of Steve above her daughter Fauve in Nene Valley while looking for the Aurora Australis.

"At first, I was confused as to why I was observing an extremely strong beam in the south-west sky," she said.

"Once I realised it was the extremely rare phenomenon Steve, I turned my back on the spectacularly strong aurora geostorm in the southern sky and concentrated on Steve.

"I couldn't believe I was seeing one of the rarest phenomena to be seen in our sky; hence I wanted to take a photo of my daughter in the foreground to make a lasting memory for her.

"[It was] a very special moment for us both."
