Outside My Window ~ 4.8.2012
Outside my window…is the closing hours for Easter. Doesn’t seem possible…Easter….April…already. Where have the days gone this year? I try to avoid wishing time away {I wish it was summer…I wish it was cooler}…it goes much too quickly all by itself. Right now {9:15 p.m.} it is 57°F with calm winds and relatively low humidity. So low in fact we are under a “fire danger” tomorrow due to low humidity and wind. Our low tonight will dip down to 45°F. Tomorrow the forecast calls for sunny skies and a high of 73°F…a low of only 50°F. The rest of the week won’t be as warm with a forecast high of…

Relaxing time of course! 🙂

Outside My Window ~ 8.14.11
Outside my window…is what appears to be a foggy afternoon. I say “appears” is because it is not fog but smoke from the Great Dismal Swamp fire in Suffolk, Virginia. The fire continues to burn despite our rain yesterday afternoon and evening. We will need quite a bit more rainfall to help this fire…some firefighters say it may take a tropical storm to put it out. The fire is not fully contained but currently the smoldering peat moss is creating the obvious problems. Peat moss causes the smoke and is near to impossible to put out. The fire is smoldering in approximately 6 feet of organic soil in some areas near the…

Outside My Window ~ 4.10.2011
Outside My Window…is the sun setting on another Sunday and the end of my vacation. At 7:42 p.m., we are at 60°F ~ a few degrees warmer than what our low will be for the evening. Today was amazing after a very chilly return from vacation. We arrived home Friday evening to rain and quite chilly temperatures…a huge difference from where we had departed from. Saturday was also quite cool and overcast….I felt like I drove back in time to winter again. 🙂 I am thinking…I could get use to relaxing time and being away from work. Of course, I probably would miss eating, a roof over my head and other…

Outside My Window ~ 12.27.09
Outside My Window…is a beautiful morning. Blue skies, sunshine a bit chilly at 42F with a 38F wind chill. The forecast for today doesn’t change much….a high of 56 with some clouds coming in this afternoon. We had a lot of rain with a high of 56 on Christmas Day. It didn’t begin to rain until around 2:00, but it continued throughout the night. Yesterday we woke up to cloudy skies and fog, but still relatively mild temps. For the coming week the temps will hover in the low to mid 40’s. I am thinking…about what I want to do today. Now is the time to get rolling on my list of things…

Outside My Window ~ 12.13.09
Outside My Window…is rain! Yes, rain……cause everyone knows we could sure use it. We were actually in danger of some of the larger puddles drying out! 🙂 Seriously though…….it is raining, again. The forecast for today is to receive about a half an inch today. In normal conditions, a half an inch wouldn’t really mean all that much…..in our current condition, it just adds to the saturation. Right now at 9:30 a.m. we are at 56F, which is a great improvement over the 33F mornings we have been experiencing these last few days. We won’t get much warmer today, only a high of 59F. This temperature high will only last a couple of…
