That’s not a lot of rain but if the systems come in a bit south it could be good. Does feel like we are in warm dry pattern lock

Happening now..
TStorm in the Similkameeeens..producing heavy downpours, thunder and lightning. Depending on perspective..run of the mill for up here. For Coastal standards this would be epic

No mosquitoes yet, so this is good. Perhaps this hot weather will harm their population growth.

Anyone notice how big the bees are this year. Seems unusual. I've seen some massive Hornet looking bees.

Stink bugs are still around as well.

Prolly the Asian Killer Hornets

Yep. We're stuck in this for better or for worse. Generally the precipitation either stays out in the long range or becomes insignificant by the time it gets here.
