    Default Your Weather News @ August Edition 2023

    ...Welcome to the Mighty Month of August. We are going to have a grand time Posting Up Local Area Weather News. Today is the First of August so we can get on with the Season.
    Here in Indiana we have been seeing the temperatures all over the place.

    I would like to send Prayers to the people who are still dealing with water and heat issues. I hope things are improving and that you can get back to the normal routines of Life. My Local TV media has been somewhat limited on what is reported on the 'real issues'. If you know what I mean.
    Anyhow enough on that.

    Today we will have mostly sunny and clear skies, currently we are at 59°F.
    Calling for a high of 82°F and no rain in the forecast.
    Low of 58°F.

    So join us for the 'days of summer' (Indiana) and post up about your Local Weather Area News.
    I still enjoy reading all of the 'Local Area Weather News' from around the world. ....

    As Always Please Enjoy Your Day and Remember to Stay Healthy. ....

    Thank You, Little Blue .....
    ENJOY YOUR LIFE WITH A SPYDER

    Today will be the 40th day of 100+ degrees here in Austin. It is already 100 at 11:30 am. My digital thermometer read 113 yesterday. The previous 4 days were 112. We have had no rain since late May. A lot of brown around, and not much green. The forecast is for 105 and higher into Monday of next week. Needless to say, I'm not doing much riding unless I get out around 6 am.

    Welcome to August. Same old, same old here in AR. Warm days hovering near the 100's. Intermittent rain the last couple days. More on the way. Lots of heavy wind storms and damage to our North in Missouri. Temps supposed to be cooling off by the weekend. Time will tell.

    Howdy from the desert S.W.! Yesterday we ended our record of consecutive days of temperatures above 110. That streak lasted for 31 days. It's nice to get back to more normal temps. Highs are expected in the mid 100s and lows in the mid 80s for the next 10 days. We have been seeing some thunderstorm activity for the last few nights. Loud enough to wake me up at 2 or 3 in the morning. They do pass quickly, usually lasting no more the 1/2 hour. By sunup there is no evidence of the rain. Happy August and stay safe..... Jim

    ...Yesterday I enjoyed the cooler weather and got a fair amount of yard work done. The storm last week brought down a lot of tree branches. That's always a big mess for me.
    Currently we have clear skies and 61°F.

    Today's numbers for 84°F and 63°F.
    Lots of sunshine and less humidity.
    Calling for some rain showers later tonight.
    I will cut the grass and then we probably won't get the rain. Been doing that most of the summer. Oh well just part of Life.

    Stay Healthy and enjoy your Ryde Times. ....

    Any news on the Flood Zones in your area?
    TV News is not saying anything about it here in Indiana. Hopefully everyone has been able to find some relief from the heat.

    I live about 25 miles east of Phoenix. It's usually 2-4 degrees cooler here because I'm away from the heat of the city infrastructures. But, I'm still seeing highs of 105-107 most days. So Phoenix is getting right up there to 110! Not much heat relief at night. Lows at my house are about 85 with Phoenix only cooling down to about 90. Our heat related death count keeps rising. A good number of those deaths are homeless people. The cities and counties have opened many cooling centers for those in need. Phoenix has even parked some big busses in strategic areas for people to get out of the heat.

    For most of the country this is prime riding season. For us, it's the time when bikes stay in hibernation waiting for cooler days ahead. This year I've lost my appetite for doing my usual 4-6 week summer road trip. I think last year's trip took a lot out of me. I may still do some touring in the little Mustang convertible I acquired last month though. Stay safe..... Jim

    This week has actually been pretty nice. Humidity was a bit high, but temps stayed in the lower to mid 80's. Today it has been a nice 67* cloudy day with a soaking rain. Should be raining on and off till tomorrow night. We can use the rain - so good deal.

    Yesterday's forecast underestimated how high the temperature would get. We hit 110! Same for today. The couple days we had of "cooler" weather were nice. Now it looks like we're right back to 110s+ with no rain in the foreseeable future. I'm getting ready to head for the pool!!!! Stay safe..... Jim

    It has been hot mostly this month. We are in the "excessive heat warning" area now of the weather map. Today is supposed to bring some heavy rain showers. That will be a nice change from the status quo.

    Hot, no clouds, no rain, 3 MPH breeze. At 3PM it is 108 and getting hotter as the day progresses. Just because I have way too much time on my hands, I decided to measure the temperature of my driveway (concrete) and the street (asphalt). Using my digital temperature sensor, the concrete measures 140.0 degrees. The asphalt, only a few feet away, is 160.7 degrees. Not barefoot or pet friendly! The heat radiation from roads is one of key factors that causes me to keep my bike in hibernation this time of year. Stay safe..... Jim

    ...Well folks the hot days of August are on hold here in Indiana. The temperatures are going to be in the lower 80s this week. The normal would be in the lower 90s. No complaints here about the cooler temperatures. Currently 67°F with clouds.

    Naturally I could still use those 2 or 3 truckloads of rain. Thank You for your offer. .......

    Today's numbers are 73°F with some clouds and maybe a little rain shower in the afternoon.
    Low at 59°F. Yes it is going to be cooler than the norm. Oh well, I will enjoy the days ahead.

    Currently the temp here in Vermont is 69 degrees and cloudy.

    This past weekend we had a nice weather( sun shine, the temps were comfortable in the 70's, and 80's).

    Now it is back to the same old weather, wet & stormy weather that could lead to some flash flooding problems again. Today will start out with just a bit of sunshine to the north, but clouds will quickly be on the increase with scattered rain showers not far behind. There could be a thunderstorm or two, but not much will happen during the daytime hours.

    Once we get into the evening & overnight, though, then things will turn more serious. Showers and thunderstorms will come through in waves with potentially heavy down pours, locally. This activity will continue through the day on Tuesday, with the focus of the heavier bands of rain more in our southern areas.


    A widespread 1-2" of rain will affect most of us tonight & Tuesday, with as much as 3-4" possible, especially the farther south you are. Localized flash flooding could occur with these passing downpours.

    The system bringing this rain will move out on Tuesday night. There may be a lingering shower early Wednesday, up to the north, otherwise the rest of Wednesday is looking fine with lot of sunshine.

    Thursday will start out OK, but more rain showers will be moving in late in the day into the overnight hours. It will slowly clear out as we go through the day on Friday.

    The upcoming weekend will be nothing like the previous weekend. Showers and possible thunderstorms will be possible both on Saturday & Sunday.
