Hang in there Signet, we are all adjusting to the change . The good news is you found us!
Yesterday was 40F in the am and just under 60 by noon, chilly day. Forgot to look for the temp this morning before heading out. DH just said it was cloudy with a high of 59 today (I asked).
Humidity at 40% doesn't sound that bad, that would be considered low for us. Yes, humidity makes a huge difference when it is hot out. 80's with high humidity...a sweaty mess.
With the high temps and no rain to speak of the past few months we had to switch our dug well over to the drilled one last night. There's only 4 ft of water in the dug well. Last time it was that low was 14 years ago the middle of Oct. A month without water, we hauled water in for 3 people, 3 horses, 2 cows, 6 dogs, cooking, cleaning, drinking, flushing...they finished the 400 ft $8000 drilled well the day before Thanksgiving. We were one of the lucky ones many people were still waiting for them to come. Funny thing is I like the water in the dug well better...we normally have an $8000 car washer in the front yard.
Have to say it is nice to know at a flip of a handle the water will go on!
