Forecast For Monday: Unsettled, probably improving. If your into hot warm weather enjoy as it will be with us for most of the week.  After that things will cool down considerably with a new trend entering into the picture.

Bug Report: Few Mosquitoes and deerflies annoying folks.  Seems they pick on the young more than the old.  But not so bad for this time of year.

Highway Report: Highway 522 is actually pretty quiet these days.  Folks are enjoying nature to its fullest by not moving around too much.  With prices of things today I can’t say I blame them.  Big going back to school sales too is taking up a bit of folks reserves I suspect.  Travelling will be good today.

Not much one can do either as the plants get stressed.  When that happens they stop producing.  So with that enjoy your day, don’t get to hot and stay safe.  Inquiries: [email protected]
