There is a weather phenomenon known as a singularity. It is something that regularly occurs on a specific ( kind of specific) date. Montana has an August singularity which is a drastic cool down with a windy cold front occurring in the 8/20’s.

So.

August 6/2020. A cold front with whooshy wind and some isolated thunderstorms and thankfully a night of gentle and then downpour kind of rain.

After the front and the rain, it felt like the yard and trees and woods said “Oh, YES!”

I said the same. After several days and nights of A/C’s on nearly 24/7 and fans … lovely cool. AND even better, lovely rain!!

Today, Saturday, 8/8 … after a 2nd night of no A/C or fans and lovely cool, sleeping weather … is it an early singularity?

I dunno, but I am not complaining and all of us are enjoying.

After a cool morning, I headed to town for my Farmer’s Market run … then home to an overcast, but delightfully cool day…

***For the record … Friday and Saturday topped out at 67F. Overnight lows in the upper 40F. Bliss as far as I am concerned!

These boys … my heart :)

Crazy, intense work week.

Crazy weather!!!

But, as always, I am grateful to be in this safe house and property with my dear Emmett and Auggie!

Thursday, almost T.G.I.F. !!!

Lazy days :)

What NOAA calls a dry cold front whooshed through yesterday. Temps were slightly lower yesterday after the front, but the big difference was the humidity dropped from upper 30% (high for here) to the teens. That allowed normal overnight cooling into the 50’s making for a beautiful and cool morning!

Auggie kept me company while I had my coffee … on the chairs, watching Emmett play in the sprinklers.

Tuesday morning.

Monday, August 3, 2020.

I turn 65 on the 16th. Unbelievable.

The good news is that, if I make it to that birthday … GOSH !!! … YEA and I am grateful for every day. So, here we go birthday month :)

Evening cloud beauty:

Emmett’s sprinkler fun…

And, then … Auggie

I am so loved :)

Ok, so the ice cream is so loved … I shared :)

This last is my favorite: Auggie, the plants, the front porch … classic cat on the front porch :) !!!

It is incredible how fast we can go from green and lush to dry and crisp.

AND, this week is to be in the 90’s with Friday forecast to reach 98F. YUCK!

Tomorrow morning, A/C #3 will be set up.

Meanwhile, this morning:

I made red raspberry ice cream!

And we like it!

We like it a LOT!
