85 today.85 Thurs., Fri., sat., Sun. and Mon. With high humidity. It's too damn hot. Man I wish it would snow.NOT!
The only good thing about lack of snow is, we are going to gorge on asparagus this evening.
Admittedly it is a humbling profession. Just when you think you have her figured out, Mother Nature throws you a curve ball.(like snow at 40 degrees see my post above) As for the criticism, it comes with the territory. I tell all of our interns and Journeyman Forecasters, if you take it personally, you are going to have a miserable career.
I built a retaining wall on Sunday, for an older guy from work that couldn't have done it himself. It was mid 80's and just wall to wall sun. I'm paying for it now, sitting in my office feeling like someone rubbed my neck with sandpaper. After an overly long winter, the first sun destroys my vampire-like complexion. Hopefully he waits for a little cooler day for me to come build the stairs.
Tie a bandana around your neck, using the triangular part to cover the back of your neck. Stops that darn sunburned redneck thing.
