Happy Summer Everyone.

It is so hot today. It is 96* but it feels like 107* with the heat index. We may get some evening storms. We could use the rain but I could do without the strong winds and thunder and lightning.

We can smell the smoke from the fires that are burning on the coast. The fire in Dare county has been burning since May. There is also a fire burning in Pender county.My son who lives in Raleigh called me to see if I knew where the smoke was coming from.I told him about the fires and then got online and looked at DOT cams in Raleigh. You could hardly see the road from some of the webcams. It looked like heavy fog. I hope they get some rain soon.They really need a break.

This has been a bad weather year for a lot of people. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who needs help.
