Front yard gardens July 2nd 2013

The past couple of days have been beautiful across Northeast Iowa and Southeast Minnesota as high pressure from the north has taken over the weather. We’ve had sunshine, low humidity and high temperatures in the lower 80s. This dry steak will significant help out water logged soils, Unfortunately it came too late for most farmers to get corn crops planted, and estimated 40% of farmlands remains un planted. The currently dry streak will last through the Holiday week and even into the weekend. The only chance for rain will be coming from an isolated storm that map develop during the afternoon across the area.

Todays Almanac: Sunny skies prevailed throughout the day across the area. No rain was reported.

Note to viewers:

I have been thinking about how I can make my blog more self sufficient and better while at the same time being different then most blogs out there. Now that I am graduated from college and working full time, I need to make the blog more able to update it’s self and I will change the way I do things to more adapt to the more limited time I now have. Over the next few days I will continue to think of ideas for my blog.

Thanks,
