Only On The Walters Post
Well, it kinda looks as if this below-normal temperature pattern that’s been affecting much of Canada is going to touch us here in Port Loring too. You know, I still pay attention to the old ways, when it comes to the weather. The feel of the air, the look of the sky, how the birds act in the morning, it all tells you plenty if you’re paying attention.
Tonight, we’ll be dipping down to around 54°F (12°C), with the chance of a passing shower still hanging around, and the sky might stay a bit unsettled, but not enough to keep most of us from sleeping sound.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, June 10, will be a little cooler, about 65°F (18°C) during the day and 50°F (10°C) overnight. We’ll likely get some morning showers, but things should clear up a bit in the afternoon. Something like today.
Wednesday, June 11, looks like the best day of the bunch, sunny to partly cloudy, reaching about 72°F (22°C), then back down to 50°F (10°C) at night. Might be a breeze or two and a passing shower later in the day.
Thursday, June 12, will turn cooler again, 69°F (20°C) for a high and 46°F (8°C) overnight, with mostly cloudy skies.
On Friday, June 13, you’ll really notice the chill, with highs only reaching 62°F (16°C) and down again to 46°F (8°C) at night. It’ll be damp and cloudy, not the kind of day to count on drying laundry outside.
Saturday, June 14, will be partly sunny with a high around 68°F (20°C), overnight near 49°F (9°C). It should feel a touch better than Friday, but still on the cool side.
Then Sunday, June 15, brings good news as the warmer air looks to return. We’re looking at 74°F (24°C) during the day and 55°F (13°C) at night, feeling more like the June we expect.
So what does this mean for us? Mornings and evenings will be crisp, so grab a jacket or sweater if you’re heading out early or sitting by the lake at dusk. Keep the rain gear handy for the first half of the week, as It won’t be a washout, but enough showers will pass through that you’ll want to be prepared. And if you’re gardening, this stretch of cooler, damp weather might slow some of your heat-loving plants. I’d mulch around them to hold in a bit of warmth. I will do that tomorrow.
So that’s the honest lay of the land folks, a cool and somewhat damp week, but not the end of the world.
Come next Sunday, we should be swinging back toward those warm summer days we all look forward to.
