Good morning!!!!

65 going to mid eighties today. Summer is here, and great growing weather, with fog every morning.

20 kids died in that school, words cannot describe that loss. Hard to prepare for a Cat 4 or 5 but those folks in Tornado Alley
or anywhere near by sure need to find a better way. Forget the bathtub, maybe building codes should require a safe room.
Hard to be safe anywhere when the wind goes over 200 mph. And it's only May.

We all send our prayers and frankly I wonder how a group like us could help.
Have any of our members been affected?

66 headed to the mid eighties with a chance of afternoon thunder showers. Finally broke out the Tee shirts and put away the smart wool but who knows what next week will bring.

Got the farm mowed yesterday. The grass is in a 5 day cycle but my life works better in a 7 day cycle, oh well.

Had the first local strawberrys of the year yesterday. I ate the whole box. So good!!! Last year they started picking May 2.

My wife is away on Vacation. I have so many projects lined up that I will never get them done. I will be glad when she gets back so I will have to ease up a little.

My desk is covered with to do lists, project reminders and shopping lists. I have so many interesting projects that the trip to the JD dealer will have to wait till mid week. If you guys who moan about the high cost of JD parts just take a trip to the boat store you will see high.

My situation is not improving... Such is life... Not much I can do.

Chance of T-Storms, hot and humid.

55*F, fog and rain, more rain expected all day.

My heart goes out to the folks hit by the tornadoes. It is very sad, lots of lives lost and changed forever in the space of a few minutes.

Good Morning! I know a lot of people are thinking about storm shelters today seeing the aftermath of Oklahoma. The devastation is so complete and inescapable above ground. Our prayers go out to them.

75˚ and a chance of rain this evening as that front line approaches.

edit - Blueriver from SE Oklahoma just posted on the Texas thread, he's OK.

I have several friends in OK, have heard from one so far and he's fine but he lives in NW Oklahoma. God be with them all.:weepy:
Low 70's now, 80's later. Got my deck joists all in yesterday afternoon, still need to install a few joist hangers to complete, then on to decking and rails and steps and whatever else my wife decides we need on this deck...:D

Terrible news from OK. I was surprised that a school, especially a elementary school, did not have some sort of shelter? Going to be warm here, maybe more T storms like we had last night.

Rain overnight and looks like it will continue all day with a high of 16C/61F.
Watched a bit of CNN last night, those twisters cause so much damage and death, so sad to hear of the chldren killed.

52 degrees now and a high of 84 predicted. Like yesterday, we have a possibility of thunderstorms and rain.
I'm down two folks at work, which means I have to pick up the slack. In a foundry, that means getting out there checking castings on the line...hot, dirty work. Boy, by the end of the day (I work 10-11 hours per day), I'm am beat...getting too old for this stuff!

54 going to 84! Had a cool front yesterday! Some got a good rain, but I think I just got spit on. I'll take the temps and be thankful no severe weather came with the front. There are a few small showers somewhat close, maybe one of them will drop a little moisture on me!

Y'all have a good day!
 
   / Good morning!!!! #10,838  
48*F and raining. We finally are getting our usual spring rains.

Roy, take it easy in the heat. I know what you mean about getting older, I don't bounce back from those long days like I used to.

Hope any nasty storms miss everyone today!

Got the coffee brewing. 66° with rain this morning. Heading to 75° with thunderstorms throughout the day. I was going to wash the 50 windows in our house today. Looks like rain is going to keep me from doing that. We need the rain. Grass looks like mid July with brown spots all over the place.
Good Morning All.
