westMJim Posted July 29, 2021 Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 Here is my area there we no storms last night or this morning I recorded a total of 0.10" of rain fall. The last few years here in my area there have NOT been much in the way of thunder and lightning. The last two years there were very few and so far this year is even worst. While there have been periods of heavy rain there most have happened with little or no thunder. With the official high so far this month of 89 this will be the first July that it has not reached 90 or better since 2014 and only the 5th time in the last 30 years. It has now became cloudy and the temperature is now at 75 here with the clouds 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there were no storms here last night or this morning. It was a warm night here with the temperature hanging around 78 most of the night before dropping down to 73 during the shower when 0.10" of rain fell here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with you. Today is just as bad as the rest of the week. No breeze at all and dews are mid 70’s at least. My son just asked me why it’s not cooler today as that’s what the forecast said.

james1976 Posted July 30, 2021 Report Share Posted July 30, 2021 Hello from Pascagoula, MS. Right on the gulf. Was in New Orleans last night. Went down to Bourbon Street! Was in TX for a week prior to that. Was in Brownsville right on the border. Actually saw part of the border wall. Anyway, its been sunny and mid to upper 90s everyday. And humid, except Amarillo was more of a dry heat. Looks like you guys are baking back at home as well. Been a hot summer. I return home next Tuesday. Looking forward to fall! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
