       I know,I haven’t been posting daily.  See what happens.  With the things I have wanted to get done, and I can’t clone myself, I have had help in doing it.  Slowly things are getting completed.  Watering takes a lot of time, as I give the wagon a good soaking every day.  I know you have been watering also.  We do need that rain.  Maybe Saturday it will come. HOPE so and we will see.  Now what is the weather going to be like in July according to the Old Farmers’ Almanac.  It reads that we are going to have below normal temperatures and with moisture in July for Upper Midwest and northern Plains.

As you make your vacation plans, you’ll want to keep an eye on the forecast for the month of July. We’ll let you in on what type of weather you can expect for July 2023—as well as predictions for your Fourth of July celebrations!
Fourth of July fireworks will be on full display from Boston to Washington, D.C., where mainly dry weather is expected. There will be isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms across much of the rest of the eastern U.S., although many of those typically diminish by the time the fireworks will be lighting up the sky. Temperatures will be near or slightly below normal across much of the East, although on the warmer side across the Southeast. Isolated thunderstorms may interrupt a few holiday barbecues across the Plains as well as the Intermountain West, while the Southwest will be mostly dry. A few showers are also possible across the Pacific Northwest.
July Forecast 2023
It looks like the rest of July will be a cooler-than-average month from the northern Plains to the Upper Midwest. From the Great Lakes to the mid–East Coast, temperatures will generally be near or below average. On the flip side, above-average temperatures are likely across the Northeast, Ohio Valley, southern Plains, and much of the western U.S. and western Alaska, with near-average temperatures in Hawaii. In Canada, temperatures will be near or above average, although Northwest Territories will be on the cooler side.
July rainfall will be above average across much of the East Coast of the U.S., although Florida will likely see below-average rainfall for the month. Even so, summertime downpours will still bring some heavy rain at times. We’re also anticipating near- or above-average rainfall from the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley back through the Upper Midwest and into the Plains and Desert Southwest, as well as in the Pacific Northwest—which will likely mean increased thunderstorm activity in these areas..
