One weather app is still saying there’s a high probability of rain today, while the other one predicts clear skies.

I wonder which one will be correct?

Finished my (hopefully) precision outdoor temperature & humidity sensor. I made a small case for the esp32-h2 to mount it outside of the screen to have it far away from the sensor but still protected.

Still have my old unprotected sensor up to be able to compare measurements.

Eagerly watching my sensors.
Yellow is a switchbot bluetooth sensor in the shadow but allegedly with too much influence from the house.
Blue is a ds18b20 that jumps up as soon as it's in direct sunlight.
Red is the new sht45 in a stevenson screen that will also see direct sunlight for the next ~two hours.
Thinking about building active ventilation into the screen.

So the air and sensor inside this screen heats up as bad as the unprotected sensor. 💩

I post a photo like this at least one time each summer, but today is only June 4th. It's going to get much hotter.

Granted, this was inside my car after it's been parked with the sun shining through the windshield, but the ambient temperature is still 105º F at 5:35 PM.

This is a photo taken inside a car that shows the outside temperature of 112 degrees fahrenheit in the sun.

praying for rain

Perhaps the seedlings were better off inside,

Really. She's never sure what's best for them,

All down the years trying peat pots, blocks,

Yanking down flats from storage, penciling markers,

Ingratiating herself with baked soils,

Now trying perlite, vermiculite, moss,

Getting out lamps and heaters, rotating flats,



Fighting intruding snails, mice and rats

Or even knotweed, and bindweed

Running its tendrils up through brick.



Right now, she wishes she hadn't hurried.

All her helpless babies in cracked clay!

If it doesn't rain tonight, she tells herself,

Never again shall I call April May.

waiting for the rain to stop

While watching forests comb those wet bellies,

All grey and louring, of the heartless clouds,

I wondered how the heavy earth breathes

Thus more than dampened, more than drowned

In so much rain. The very snails could gasp,

Nudging toward such daylight as they might,

Grudged them by the endless drops, dropping.



Fear for my crops, standing in chill pools

Or bent, prostrated, shambled, lying left and

Right, I feel, yet not enough to go and see.



There are tree branches, if I go, ready to pull

Hair, poke eyes, and shower me to my skin,

Every direction, along each path and bed.



Running streamlets ease a darkening land

All river-bound, discovering the slightest slope,

Inland being anathema to them,

No place like home, their wide and welcoming sea.



There all streams meet, mingle, and play.

Ocean the lowest place, where rain may end in



Stillness some times, or leap about, yet bounded.

There it may stop awhile, then one day mist forth

Over the waves and shores, plains and mountains

Putting forth life and death again, a cycle.
