FIRE - After signifiant precipitation two weeks ago, we have faced sunny skies and slightly above average temperatures this week resulting in our extreme  drying out.  Our grass (St Augustine) has shriveled in response to the heat, which is its protective response to the heat.
ENERGY - Temperatures have averaged slightly above normal in the daytime with the firecracker to possibly sent some records in the coming week.  However, we keep the awnings out, shades and shutters down and keeping the direct sun out, has not sounded the AC unit to work overtime.
GENERAL - Slight chances of precipitation are forecasted for next week, but not significant enough to help reduce our drought.
