What is your weather like ... today

[MitchM]

I cannot imagine what it would be like to get 6 inches or more of rain in a 24 hour period.

 

[Meyer Jordan]

How about 20 inches in 24 hours, April 2014. and then another time,1979 I think, over 16 inches.

Hot, humid & clouds rolling in again. Only thing loving this weather is the berries! 18 pints of jam so far and pulling a quart of blackberries every other day off 2 bushes. Dreading next month when blueberries start. Today's harvest -

Cobbler time!

I'm actually tired of blueberries! We get 40-60 pounds a year. I'm the only one who picks them. Last year I let most of them go to birds and deer. I was going to cut back the bushes this spring but....... now their 8 feet high and loaded. Please feel free to come and pick as many as you would like!

It looks like I'm going to get over 100 quarts of red raspberries this year.
.
70 degrees here today.

 

[mrsclem]

Wow, Mike. Are they wild or did you plant them? I have a red ras berry plant on my deck and it puts out a couple of quarts every year.

I have today and tomorrow and the whole weekend off. Next to catch up around the house and garden. Rain and cold today so I am laying around with warm blanket. Need to get coffee going. Wish it was warmer...

 

[sissy]

Stopped to have coffee also colleen .great minds drink coffee together

 

[callingcolleen1]

Coffee is a daily ritual for me. I am more addicted to coffee than anything else. First thing is coffee. I could live without alcohol or anything else, but not my morning coffee, perked in my very old GE coffee maker, made in Canada like back in the 60's.
Going to see my mom at the hospital today and spend quality time with her. My mother means the world to me and I just want to be with her as much as possible.

 

[sissy]

wish her well from me and sure from all your fellow ponders .

Wow, Mike. Are they wild or did you plant them? I have a red ras berry plant on my deck and it puts out a couple of quarts every year.

I planted them. I'll post pics when they start to turn red.

I planted some raspberry then got rid of them, the pain in picking was not worth the reward. Then I found out you can get thornless, but have not done that.

It is raining, hot and humid here

 

[Mike in Vermont]

I have thornless. No slivers for me last year. They can be planted for easy picking. I will start a thread soon about growing raspberries.

It's raining cats, dogs and pine needles here.
