Outside My Window ~ 5.19.2013
Outside my window…is a rather dreary Sunday afternoon. There is full cloud cover with the sun making a feeble attempt to show itself. I say feeble because I believe it could come out and shine if it really wanted to. I’m not sure what location The Weather Channel dude is reporting from but they are saying mostly sunny and 78°F…not so. Cloudy and 78°F is more like it. We have a chance of thunderstorms after 6:00 this evening, it is definitely humid enough to conjure up a storm when you mix in a little afternoon heat. We have had a weekend of storms and rain that began with a rather powerful thunderstorm at around 3:00 Saturday…

Outside My Window ~ 5.12.2013
Outside my window…is the closing hours of Mother’s Day 2013. What began as a rainy morning turned into an amazing day with sunshine, blue skies and fabulous temperatures. Our high today was 75°F and a forecast low tonight of 50°F…beautiful! Unfortunately I didn’t get anything finished in the flower bed as I had planned today….the ground was pretty wet from the rain last night and this morning. I couldn’t help but notice on my walks this weekend how lush and green everything is…just the way I like it. Our temperatures will stay in the upper 60’s for highs and a forecast low of 45°F on Monday and 54°F on Tuesday. Wednesday will see the temps…

Outside My Window ~ 4.28.2013
Outside My Window…is a cloudy evening. We started out with blue skies and sunshine but as the day progressed we built up to what is now total cloud cover with some fairly dark skies on the horizon. Our forecast for this evening is cloudy skies with an 80% chance of rain after midnight. At 6:15 we are currently at 62°F which is very close to the forecast over night low of 60°F. Our high today was around noon with partly cloudy skies and 70°F. It was a fabulous weekend overall….perfect for working outside. Yesterday I was able to finish my clean up of the backyard and trimming the two large bushes on the opposite side…

Outside My Window ~ 4.21.2013
Outside my window…is the end of another weekend. At around 11:00 this evening we are at 47°F with clear skies. The weather channel says it feels like 43°F and I’m wondering if I should be worried about the house plants I took outside a couple of weeks ago. I guess it is too late to worry about that now…I hope they will be alright. We had an absolutely beautiful, albeit chilly, weekend. There was a nice overnight soaking rain on Friday and into the early hours Saturday morning that washed the thick layer of pollen away. A cold front moved in with that rain and left the air feeling brisk and…

Outside My Window ~ 4.7.2013
Outside my window…is the end of an amazing spring day! Finally! Our high today was a wonderful 72°F with sunshine and blue skies…just fabulous! Currently at 10:00 p.m we are at 63°F with a forecast low of only 56°F. Tomorrow ~ mostly sunny and 80°F. The next five days ~ lower 80’s for our highs and low to mid 60’s for the low. We won’t drop back down into the low 70’s until next Friday and then mid to upper 60’s for several days after that. I was anticipating warmer temperatures but I wasn’t expecting the 80’s to be honest. The warmer temperatures will definitely bring the trees to life….and…

Outside My Window ~ 4.1.2013
Outside my window…is the closing hours of a beautiful day on this the first day of April, 2013. Our high today was 73°F…partly cloudy but I can deal with that when the temperature is so warm. Unfortunately I was inside for a better part of the day at work but I was able to enjoy the nice weather while walking the dog this morning and this evening. This past weekend was half and half….Saturday was beautiful ~ not as warm as today, but very nice still the same….Sunday was cloudy and rainy. This was typical spring weather…not the cold that is coming back Tuesday and Wednesday evening. Daytime temps won’t…

Outside My Window ~ 3.17.2013
Outside my window…is a fairly damp and chilly night. Currently at 8:30 this evening the temperature is hovering at around 40°F, but feels like 34°F. It is damp, wet and still feels very much like winter outside right now. I had taken some of the plants out for what I thought would be for a long while but instead I was dragging them back inside this evening. Just wishful thinking on my part I suppose. These temps are too cold for a few of them. We will have a few more of these chilly evening in the week ahead…. and of course, more rain. Sigh. Did you know…that it will…
