I was at the cart and a friend came by. She has an outside temp gauge in her Jeep and she told me it was reading 99 degrees. Maybe it was the sweat dripping off my chin that brought her to mention that, who knows? All I know is that it is very, very hot and humid here. When I first moved to the islands (St. Croix) I was told it had NEVER broken 100 degrees before. I think that might be history sooner than later....
On the plus side of life here, the sky is postcard blue, as is the water. And mid-afternoon, we got a breeze going on, another good thing. Right now my weather radio temp says 89 - it feels cooler than that and I'm not sweating (maybe the fan on high is helping?). Afternoon cool down, wonderful!
The last sand screw is being put down for my houseboat, I'm sorting and sifting, making things *just in case* big storm ready while I'm away from mid-August to mid-September in the states, and all is well. I love when I get the Tropical Weather Outlook and it's only 3 lines long...nothing happening for the next 48 hours (sorry, I shouldn't actually write that but...). May it continue!
The wind must be a bit stronger out at the mouth of the bay...and maybe that high cloud will give us some rain. Hope springs eternal.Attachment: OutThere.jpg (Downloaded 18 times)
