2025 - How's the Weather Where You Are?

It was a real temperature of 78° at 5:30 this morning. That is not normal for southern middle Tennessee. They said we could hit 98° or 99° for a real temperature today and Tuesday.

Some meteorologist have been bold enough to say they think we’re going to hit 100 but they just can’t make themselves put those numbers on the forecast. I don’t blame them

We are supposed to start cooling down by Wednesday. By cooling down the meteorologist mean down to 90°.

I know this is the weather thread, but I’m sorry this is hard on my elder horse and this is hard on all livestock. People that have never farmed don’t think about that, and many don’t even care. I refill the water tubs in the morning, and give my horses fresh water every night in this kind of weather. Last night the outside water tubs were almost too hot for me to stick my arm in them to see how warm they really work🥵🥵

We need rain. The deer have been coming up to one of the outdoor tubs for salt and water because their water sources are slim to none or full of yuck lately. I saw the twins, their mom, and two others. They were standing in the main pasture watching me, waiting for me to go to the house lol lol

I currently don't have any livestock but I sure remember those days and in winter having to keep fresh water during freezing temps available also. My dogs are house dogs but I can see their appetites have fallen, the oldest one is wanting outside to vomit and drinking twice as much water as normal. Being a Jack Russell his energy level has slumped as well. It sounds like where you are and where I am are on the same weather path.
I too will so happy if Wednesday brings the breaker with it. Hang tight, hopefully it's nearly done. ✊
 
The forecast was correct - much, much cooler today and breezy. The front passed late afternoon yesterday with high winds, but no rain. The cellar always seemed much cooler than upstairs the last few weeks, but this morning it actually felt warmer.
