Seeing some crazy bright lightning strikes to the north of me (I'm in the SW) yet not hearing any thunder whatsoever. Weird.

I have all the thunder over here in the NE. Massive booms and rolling peals.

After driving, noticed flames shooting up from the metal recycler in the SE, as usual, so probably was that.

Lightning just lit up my entire living room. Watching out the window for another strike now.

I'm dreading my August water bill...I'm not sure these tomatoes are going to cover their production cost.

It can rain for the next week in BC, then needs to stop. It can rain here M-W next week, hold off Th-Sat, then rain for the next week.

Our Tomatoes are going nuts, we have already frozen a tonne of them and they keep producing.

The other things that had loved this heat is our Kale, seems like every few days we can harvest more.

Ya, a lot of stuff is going off this year. Going to be a good harvest. I need to clear out some freezer space...We've already been having some giant delicious beets, never done that in August before.

Looks like we might get some rain mid week. Hopefully we get a decent soak so that it can be hot the rest of August and early September.
