I did probably 75% of the yard and of that only a fraction actually needed it, just easier to go over it all and get the random summer weeds too. Things are dire ha. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I figure, if it is lower than 3", going over it is not going to hurt it anyway. Makes it easier not to lose track of where one how mowed already. I wonder if we will ever have a mid to late summer mow of thick grass this year. Maybe not. I actually have not had one since 2018. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesy56 Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Has anyone found the temperature records around here for 1432, 586 or 987 BC ? Yes as long as it’s only top 5 in the modern record and not unprecedented on geologic time scales, it feels great! Having this run of disproportionately warm months coincide with my short lifetime on earth is neat! Anytime I’m camping in recent years and find myself tossing and turning I just say, “don’t you remember the low temps of the Paleocene, you clown?! Suck it up!” . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Yesterday was on average our warmest day of the year and we were around 6 degrees cooler than normal for July 19th. Today looks to be our 3rd consecutive below normal temp day across most of Chesco. More clouds than sun today but sunny and hotter tomorrow with temps back in the upper 80's. By Tuesday we start to see some pretty unsettled weather with off and on storm chances through the remainder of the upcoming work week. Chester County records for today: High 104 degrees at Phoenixville (1930) / Low 48 degrees at Coatesville (1965) / Rain 3.83" at Coatesville (1981) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomixwx Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I'm telling you, yesterday I drove through parts of Clearfield, Centre (was in State College in the afternoon), Blair, Huntingdon, Fulton, and Franklin counties and the further SE I went, the browner it got. And I'm pretty goddamned brown and crunchy up here. It's bad. The winter rains on Sadderday have us spared currently from burn bans and water restrictions. But that's coming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
