With heat index?

No.
Our temperatures are almost always higher, up to 10 degrees higher in the summer and down to 5 degrees lower in the winter than what the local forecast says. It seems to be in this very specific area. It's the same at my brother's farm as well, not sure why, it's just always been that way.

Cindy and I want to be at CS. My daughter’s flying in from Boston but should not be a show stopper. One of our friends backed out. I’ll put some Staple Maple Syrup or my Staple Blackberry wine on the table for a swap raffle.

Troyer. I have a weather you need to take.

I will not be there, can not get off work. Wish I could, it's been a few years. Hope you all have fun!

It was 92 degrees even up here in Pellston (just south of the Bridge) on Tuesday. A much cooler 86 at my house.

I miss Randy. He always kept this everywhere to be found. Had to go back to May to find it.

Keep bumping it so it can be seen and updated. Still unsure if I would be able to go.

I live in Battle Creek and I have a Mille Fleur d'Uccle rooster I am looking to give away to a good home.

He's a little over a year old, and growing in his spurs.

He is nasty towards humans, but good to his girls. He is currently in a flock with three standard hens and he is good about not over mating. He is in an enclosed run, but I think he would do well in a free range flock as he is very protective of his girls and watchful for predators. He's a beautiful boy and I'm hoping to find a good home for him!

There is a lady out this way who takes in Roosters at her sanctuary. DM me and I can pass along her number to you.
