Austin will be getting its 29th day over 100 today.
In early June, the temps were hovering around 103-106 each day but now they are usually at 100-102. We have been spared from anything in the 110 range. We were lucky enough to get 3 inches around 3 weeks ago and that a blessing. Not counting that, I had 3.5 inches since October at my orchard.

I now have a water hookup for my orchard and thank God I got it when I did. My Jujube trees and Asian Pears even have fruit but it is sparce.

At least we are half way though with July. Two more months and the temps will start to drop. The farmers almanac says that Texas and Oklahoma will have significantly low temps for August. I hope they are right.
