53ºF (11C) this morning, but with the wind factored in, it feels like 45ºF (7C)! Not suppose to reach the low 60's until late this afternoon. What a change from the last several days!
 
After 2 weeks of very hot days, with nights more comfortable, and cool enough to want a blanket after midnight. We finally had rain last night and more predicted. Much needed our Village is crrently restricting outdoor watering. Farmer neighbors get the water for their fields from our Acquifer Co-op which is independent of city supplies, but likely it's getting low now too.
 
Thunder , lightening and torrential rain.....🌩️⛈️⛈️☔..and of course it's pitch dark at 10.45pm.. the lightening has frozen the screen on my TV.. fortunately my computer is still working.. so I've come up here to sit with my cuppa tea, and see what yer all up to tonight..😜
 
The past few days it has been hazy, looked to me like smoke, but no fires I know of.

Now it seems its a fine alkaline dust coming from newly exposed Salt Lake bottom.

The drought has greatly shrunken the lake leaving lots of newly exposed salt flats. We have had a lot of wind from the lake and the dust is the result.

First time I have seen this, we do often get dust from the desert, but this is different.
 
The weather here has been absolutely delightful lately. Enough rain to keep things green and cool. High of 67 today, and looks like mostly mid to high 70's the rest of the week. Last year this time everything was bone dry and fires everywhere. We are already getting smoke, but not from local fires, so far as I can tell.
