Our weather has been very tranquil and extremely nice sunny and warm. We haven’t recorded any rain since March 15. There’s a slight chance toward the end of the week, and a better chance for the end of the month. More on that later. 

I plan to try to get my maximum minimum digital thermometer working. That way as summer approaches i can give you a summary of the high temperatures.
