Warm, Humid - And I can hear the bloody grass rustling as it accelerates upward! Mowed the lawns day before yesterday, and they need another mowing.

We've just had a fairly decent thunder and lightning storm. It came from nowhere!

We must have had at least some rain - dog went out at about 4 am, came back in with a sprinkle of damp on her coat. I guess there's more where that came from. lol. Tremain is so NAUGHTY!

It rained heavily overnight but was still very humid. The garden has been well watered.

Grey and grumpy looking here this morning but a high of 17 reported with no rain in sight today. We have had a good amount of rain over the last week and the country side is looking good right now with plenty of stock feed. Took a run to Temuka on Tuesday and was surprised at the lack of water in the rivers along the way. Cow cockies irrigating probably.  |

If you see a wee grease spot here, that's me. We had drizzly rain helped revive the growth so my sweet peas are doing their best to liven up the bees. Too hot for comfort here at present.

Conversation through Word Feud games with present owner of camp.
(We are accustomed to max temps of 16c to 21c)
P: I've just cleaned camp. Inside now dying a slow hot death lol
Me: Sit in chair; Cuddle a damp cold towel. Xtreme heat? Lie raw on bed covered by a really wet towel
P: Got too many customers around for that lol
Me: Create a group coolathon
P: Now there's an idea
Me: Better perhaps to just Skinnydip down at the beach - but I think most visitors there will be loving the warmth

We have been warned - "...OUTLOOK TO 1200 UTC 14-Feb-2016 Tropical depression TD09F is likely to continue deepening while moving southwards. The potential for it to develop into a tropical cyclone is high from Friday onwards. The depression in the Coral Sea is also likely to deepen further and has a moderate potential for development into a tropical cyclone. ..."

Another hot day in Wairarapa.
It's already 30°C at my place and it isn't even quite lunchtime yet!
Plenty of fans circulating the air inside my place, trying to stop the temperature from rising too high, although it's probably like trying to shovel shit uphill.

I have 32c here: I have sprayed myself with cold water, am wearing next to nothing with a wet facecloth on my head, heat pump auto cooling, lying back in my lazy boy with a oscillating desk fan playing on my bare feet, and a neighbour knocks on the door. V 18c to 20c is my comfort zone so come on in and join the party. |

It's muggy in Upper Hutt. We had overnight rain and it's still a little drizzly.

Yak said "not a cloud to be seen in any direction, the birds are singing and all appears well with the world," Ok he was up early but clouds should be gathering soon to deliver some wet for late afternoon across the ditch in Wolongong. According to the link I gave (Wee laugh: I sort of get the feeling that Yak doesn't open links)  |

The weather was playing “opposites” on opposite sides of the dividing range at the bottom of the North Island this morning.
Clear, starry skies in Wairarapa during the wee hours, followed by grey & drizzly on the western side of the ranges in the Mangaroa Valley, Hutt Valley and Wellington early this morning, then back to blue skies and sunshine in Wairarapa mid-morning and into late-morning.
The temperature is rapidly rising (again) in Wairarapa....it's turning into another hot one!
