Holiday Weekend 🌧🌧

QVCkitty1 — Sat, 29 May 2021 16:51:42 GMT

It rained yesterday, it's raining today, and it will tomorrow. Monday it looks like we'll see some sunshine. I hope your weather is better, but in any case I hope you all have a safe and peaceful weekend. 🇺🇸

Warm, very dry and sunny in Albuquerque but we could get some rain next week, in which case we'd be overjoyed. Our relative humidity has been running about 4% most afternoons.

Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone! We've been busy all morning. It's a bit chilly, but a beautiful day all around so far. DH decided to smoke the brisket today and not on Monday due to the weather the next couple of days.

Smelling the brisket wafting around outside and through the house when the door opens is pure heaven. DH says it will be between 7-9pm before we can enjoy it...can't wait!

Very rainy/windy weekend for us too. It's actually quite chilly again in the northeast.

Crazy time of year, last week we hit 90 and today it's 49! I may have to turn the heat back on tonight!

It's going to be rainy here in Colorado for the next two days. To be honest, I'm actually glad that the weather will be that way b/c frankly people are out of control here with gatherings, parties and crazy traffic. Maybe the thunderstorms will have a calming effect or at least put a damper on some of the craziness around here.

VERY chilly here in CT. Two days ago, our central a/c was on. Today I turned the heat on. It IS crazy! But I can't STAND the heat, so I'm OK with it! {*_*}

It's very cool and rainy here, but I'm loving it....I must be crazy for loving these temps at the end of May, but I really hate hot weather, so I'll take it while it's here. Maybe I should move to the upper northwest??

BRRRRR. Cold, rainy and windy here in east central Pa into Mon. afternoon,then maybe clear up and get into upper 60's. Right now it's only 50. It hadn't rained here for over 2 weeks and was on the warm to hot side. I'm sure this is messing with some people's cookout plans.

The Pacific NW is sunny, blue skies and warm. Heat increasing each day to hit 90 degrees Tuesday. Supposed to stay this way for a week.

@Kachina624

There's 2 things I miss most about living in ABQ.

1). Best Mexican food on the planet

2). The weather; even in the heat swamp cooling is the BEST

@SurferWife I cool with a swamp cooler and have never had any desire to switch to refrigerated air. The cost to run it is nominal. We haven't even hit 90° yet this year. Maybe today.

Wow @Kachina624 I didn't think it could get drier than here in Denver, but you've got us beat.

Will send good raindance juju to you, we have afternoon thunderstorms and showers today through Monday.

We're full blast up here too with traffic, gattherings etc in metro Denver. This moisture is great, I think the whole state is out of the drought now?

65 degrees and sunny here in the Seattle area. I just watered the neighbors yard (they are in Maui) and planted my herb garden in my window box.

@rockygems123

Seems Colorado's drought situ has a split personality. Half the state is in an exceptional drought while the other half has almost no drought. This map is the latest.

The outdoor cooking on everyone's grills around here is choking me. The air is thick with smoke and the smell of burning hotdogs and burgers. I don't eat meat and this is so unpleasant let me tell you.

@QVCkitty1 I put another blanket on my bed at around 4am, then I turned on the heat this morning! We've had over 3 1/2 inches of rain in the past 2 days! We really needed it, so can't complain. It seems to always rain on Memorial Day weekend. But, it is certainly colder than usual. I made chili this afternoon!
