The weather has really become unpredictable.. we usually have abundance of rain this time of the year but this year it is unbearably hot and humid... this dry spell seems to be killing crops and drying up water sources. I have to water my plants twice a day now and even then they seem to wilt by evening. Its so hot inside the house that the fan seem to be whirring all day long.. our cooler went kaput the other day due to constant usage. I hope it rains here.. very soon.. How is the weather in your place?

It is also so hot . I also long that it will rain even just in the evening so it would be cooler .

@sofssu Indeed . Sometimes they say its this but then what happens is that . Well, who can blame them , it's what those weather machines produced for them to read.

In my place, the weather is very hot almost 40 degrees Celsius. This is the hottest weather of the last few years. Almost 6 months there is no rain although only drizzle. My favorite plants and lawns are dying because sometimes I forget to water it ... oh ... so hot ....

It is a very fair weather, sunny but the cool air is all around. I had to water the plants also because the sun has dried up the ground.

@crazyhorseladycx I am glad you are out of drought.. I was watching the crops wilt and die as we drove past field of rice and millets. Just thinking of those farmers was making me sad. Poof adding strong winds to high temperatures is disastrous. And you will soon move on to cold winters... Oh man you have a wide range out there don't you?

In my country, Israel, it is also hot many days, and it gets worse every year. When the weather is hot and there is no air conditioner, the best thing to do is to hide from the sun. If you can make some shadow over your garden, less sun radiation will come on your crops. It will be cooler. Try to stay protected from the sun, close the windows in your house, don't let the sun light getting in.
