Heat-Wave Monday

United States
May 18, 2026 11:40am CST
Happy Monday Everyone! it's a sunny and hot day here today. Looks like we're in for a few days of very warm weather and then it will go back to cooler temperatures and days of some rain., With the upcoming holiday weekend (next weekend) it looks like we'll be dealing with rain. A big for those who have plans. I had a busy weekend and not much time to be here. My daughter took today off from work so we're doing some organizing of the kitchen pantry. Right now she's upstairs looking for something so I figured it would be a good time to pop on and say hi. With the weather being so warm it might be a good time to fire up the grill and make some bbq chicken to have with a nice, big salad for dinner. Nothing new and exciting going on here. Fine with me...I'm happy for days without drama

It is cloudy and looks nasty outside but no rain yet even though it looks like it could storm any time. It's supposed to rain/storm all week long. We shall see what happens. I'm working on a pork loin with potatoes, carrots and green beans for late lunch/dinner tonight.

@Marilynda1225 Thanks. I'm not looking forward to more storms but we can always use the rain. I changed my mind about the pork loin with potatoes, carrots and green beans... I cut the pork up into 1 inch squares and fried it with seasonings and onions and then fixed a bag of Green Giant broccoli and cheese sauce to go with it.

It is a warm day here today also. We did have a nice breeze, but that breeze has graduated to a wind. It helps keep us cool, with the windows open.

@Marilynda1225 We considered turning the a/c on, but it was breezy this morning, and now straight up windy. Tomorrow will be alot the same, but they are calling for afternoon storms, so maybe it won't get quite so hot.

@Juliaacv Hope you can hold off having to put on your a/c. Hope you don't get bad storms but enough rain for it to help

Its too hot here for open windows. My a/c is running full blast with room fans keeping the air circulating. I'm sure my electric meter is spinning like crazy

It sounds like everybody is having a really good day today if they like heat. Today is hot, muggy, and quite frankly, yucky. Tomorrow will be very cool though, and I cannot wait!

I'm sure it's unbearable for you with no a/c. We won't be getting cooler until after Wednesday. Then rain

I finally broke down and turned on the AC, but it was never totally oppressive in here.

It is warm here, and also quite windy. I am "breaking in" the speakers I just restored.

When you think of what could be happening, boring and ordinary suddenly become very desirable!!
