yeah I've seen those fires on the news!!....that's crazy!!
it's unusual for us to go this long without rain...but there's a big 'ole High Pressure sitting right over New England, that's been making all the good rain making storms deflect to the north and south of us....but on the plus side, it's also keeping the high humidity away....we've been lucky to be in the mid 70's to low 80's here on the immediate coast, with dew points in the low 50's.
though Mon & Tues the dew points are supposed to climb into the low 70's...might as well just breath water at that point.
