With all this rain we have gotten the last 10 days, there is not a drop in the basement and I’m not sure I have heard the sump pump going at all.

Please make it so. Was using my inhaler more than ever this summer, so started gardening with an N-94. Getting some strange looks but really don’t care that much. **** Canada.

Rain and hail swaths in southwest Iowa this morning. Drove in nickel sized hail on way to dr. appointment. Ping pong size and bigger in spots.

Blame your in-laws. F the Canadians.

Is this Canada wildfire smoke going to be an issue all summer?

Dang! Canada needs to get their sh*t together.

 

[tman24]

tell canada to get raking their forests!

Agree. Second summer of solar panels and production is way down and it seems to be a logical reason.

 

[BoxsterCy]

It's never going to rain again. Looks hotter than normal and mo' dry in the short term.

Guessing at this rate, they’ll run out of trees to burn by September

I’m so sick of it. I’ve been coughing up a lung.

Ugh

Ugh

Plenty of "corn sweat" coming. Being in Wisconsin I keep hearing this term, especially from weather people on the local stations.

Growing up I remember this time of year when the humidity and heat would have the corn making noise in the night. "You can hear it growing!"

But never heard of corn sweat in Iowa. What is it?
