Been snowing the last few days in the California Sierra-Nevada mountains. Not a lot unfortunately, but every bit helps.

Nearly 90 degree and ungodly humid to day. Reminds me of when we lived in S. FL. Supposed to be in the low 70s next week.

First time we have had 3 days without rain (during the day, or at night) since November.

My grass was 9 inches tall before I mowed it yesterday. First time this year.
A very pleasant 77 degrees currently. St Louis has a heat index of 102.

I will take the rain and 77 degree days.

We went from burner wood in the wood boiler with nights in the twenties to 90+ and nights not falling below 60. Now Im turning the air on due to humidity and my better half not being happy. You know what they say about the better half and being happy
I liked it when we had four seasons not two. Ugh

Initially I thought you lost a 'spring' for a carburetor. Rain last week. Grass here was high also. Last 4 days low 70s high of 80. Rain Sat,Sunday. Lots of trimming to do.

Ssssh! If you listen closely, you can HEAR the grass growing! 4 inches of rain, followed by 3 days of 95 plus temps.

Mowing in the evenings. Air cooled engines do NOT like E-10!
