Hi neighbor! Southeast Iowa here! Definitely feeling like summer around here! How are you getting along with all the hazey skies? Puts such a strange feeling into the atmosphere I think.

Trying to avoid spending too much time outside when it's super smoky! So far everyone's managing alright. The birds and kids have been fine.

Did anyone else get a "surprise" downpour this morning? The sky was bright and sunny, suddenly there was a deafening thunder clap, the open living room window blew shut and the heavens opened. For about 10 minutes. Then, it was again a bright and sunny day.

No, but the weatherman said to expect some frequent storms today. All i’ve been getting is 98 degree weather and lots of humidity

Not here, but there was a small but intense looking cell that went just north of me.

Hi all, I'm cross-posting this in a couple of spots so apologies if you see it twice! I have a 10 month old Partridge Rock (McMurray Hatchery, August 2024) cockerel/rooster who needs a new home. Preferably in north central Iowa, though I'm willing to transport him within a few hours' drive. He's a beautiful bird, but we didn't want roosters, and our setup (chicken tractor) doesn't allow our hens the space to avoid him which is causing them stress. Please let me know if you're interested or have any questions!
