It should loosen the opposite direction the blade turns I think.... or I may have that backwards

Thanks, amigo . . .
I guess I'll just have to call My LawnCare Expert.
I don't know if he is right...or left...
But for sure he ain't a-gonna leave to mud on the driveway. =)
Apology: Everybody talks about the weather. Or not.
Venture: Thank you for your forbearance and understanding.
(did i spell forbearance rite?)
And thanks a lot for bringing us that [dad-gumm-burned/blaimed] hailstorm a couple of weeks ago. =)
Rain is coming!!! Rain is coming!!!
This
Is it still June? Or is Venture sacking on creating a July thread?
If you look a few posts up, OKCisOK4me, then you'll see that venture had planned on adding July to the June thread since there wasn't enough of a change to warrant a new thread. I guess it just never happened.
Still corrupting young minds
Sorry. We're all guilty of not looking a few posts up from time to time, lol.
Oh yeah, it happens to all of us However, it's not like the weather has changed, anyway. July might as well be June at this point.
Still corrupting young minds
Yeah I put in a request to have one of the mods add July to the title since there wasn't much point in creating a new one. LOL
I'll put in another request and see if they can update it for me.
Good amount of dust being kicked up over Southern Norman by this thing.

It keeps getting hotter at my house... was 96 and I was waiting for it to cool down before I mowed and now it's 99.
Down to 91 so I can mow
OK, its getting close to fall garden planting time. Some of my vegetables won’t survive extreme heat particularly when they are very young. When is this hot high pressure system going to move on?
I need to plant things in the next 10 days or so, or the production will be limited this fall.
We might get into a Northwest flow pattern by early August but right now I wouldn't bet on it. The ridge is firmly entrenched and no indication of it moving. At this point we very well could remain in this setup until the end of August or early September. Of course if we could El Nino going faster that could help bring the jetstream back south sooner.
slightly cooler could be 100 *lol*

Sitting here sipping a large glass of ice tea with a ceiling fan on me and the thermoset set on 73 sure has me nostalgic for my old outdoor hard working days and for my football 2 days. not.....

MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1520
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0345 PM CDT FRI JUL 20 2012
AREAS AFFECTED...SRN/WRN OK...NRN TX...ERN TX PANHANDLE
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 202045Z - 202315Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...5 PERCENT
SUMMARY...A VERY ISOLATED SVR MICROBURST POTENTIAL WILL EXIST THIS
AFTERNOON...AND THE ISSUANCE OF A WW IS UNLIKELY.
DISCUSSION...OKLAHOMA MESONET OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT A SFC
HOT-THERMAL AXIS -- TEMPS FROM 105 TO 109 DEGREES -- ARCS FROM NW OK
THROUGH THE OKC METRO AREA AND FARTHER SE INTO SERN OK. A SFC TROUGH
ALIGNS WITH THERMAL AXIS...WITH A REMNANT/DIFFUSE STATIONARY FRONT
DRAPED NEARLY W-E JUST NORTH OF THE THERMAL AXIS. OVERLAPPING THE
SRN FRINGES OF THE HOTTEST SFC TEMPERATURES...A RIBBON OF ENHANCED
MID-LEVEL MOISTURE PER WATER VAPOR IMAGERY EXTENDS FROM THE ERN TX
PANHANDLE TROUGH SRN OK/NRN TX AND FARTHER EAST ACROSS SRN AR/NRN
LA...WITH 700-MB DEWPOINTS IN EXCESS OF 6C PER 12Z RAOBS. DEEP
BOUNDARY-LAYER CIRCULATIONS AMIDST THIS RELATIVE MAXIMUM IN MOISTURE
HAVE ALLOWED VERY ISOLATED STORMS TO DEVELOP. THIS DEVELOPMENT HAS
BEEN AIDED BY ASCENT ALONG THE TROUGH...AND PERHAPS BY A REMNANT
MID-LEVEL CIRCULATION NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF I-35 AND THE RED
RIVER WHICH HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY ILL-DEFINED THROUGH THE DAY.
WEAK FLOW THROUGH THE LOW/MID LEVELS PER AREA VWP DATA WILL FOSTER A
PULSE CONVECTIVE MODE AND DISORGANIZED CONVECTION...MOVING SLOWLY
SSWWD/SWWD. HOWEVER...VERY STEEP LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES OWING TO THE
HOT SFC TEMPERATURES -- SUPPORTING DCAPE WELL IN EXCESS OF
1000 J/KG -- WILL PROMOTE STRONG MICROBURSTS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
GIVEN THESE THERMODYNAMIC CONDITIONS...VERY ISOLATED INSTANCES OF
SVR WIND GUSTS CANNOT BE RULED OUT WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS.
..COHEN/HART.. 07/20/2012
power flickered here in central OKC.
Slight Risk of severe weather today for Central into Northeast Oklahoma.
...OK THROUGH MID MS VALLEY REGION...
OTHER STORMS WILL REDEVELOP AND INTENSIFY ALONG SWRN EXTENSION OF
FRONT AND PRE-FRONTAL OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM THE MID MS VALLEY INTO
NRN PARTS OF THE SRN PLAINS. MOST OF THIS REGION WILL REMAIN SOUTH
OF THE STRONGER FLOW ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH AMPLIFYING UPPER TROUGH.
HOWEVER...THE THERMODYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT WILL FAVOR A THREAT OF
ISOLATED DAMAGING WIND AND DOWNBURSTS WITH MULTICELL CONVECTION AS
LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES STEEPEN ALONG THERMAL AXIS.
