I love fixing cracked main drip line tubing and a bad pressure regulator seal in 100°F weather. I took this as an opportunity to remove previous temporary fixes and an unnecessary valve.

Yesterday’s max temperature at my Orland, CA station was 115°F.
Covered up the avocados again in advance of today’s 110°F weather. Every time we do this it gets simpler and better. Wrapping the sheet around a ladder is genius.
No surprise why I spent today processing raw photos. Cool that Carrot Weather can report on my weather station.
40 tomatoes harvested today at just over 7 pounds. During cooler weather a few weeks back they managed to set fruit, so lots more on the way. Our peppers, grown for mainly hot sauce, are ripening nicely.
Ooof. Though I have a suspicion my weather station measures higher than it should. It topped out at 111°F today.

The humble shrub that’s predicting a terrible fire season. I like the rust color of dried out chamise flowers. I don’t like where this fire season is headed.
MeteoBridge Email Weather Alerts & FastMail
MeteoBridge reports my weather station data to all sorts of services. To be rid of IFTTT, I finally set MeteoBridge up to send an email if certain weather conditions happen. And FastMail, to my surprise, has a rule Action for notifications! Yeah, definitely don’t need IFTTT anymore.
We planted all our indoor pepper and tomato starts. The Serranos looked most distressed prior to transplant 🤞🌱
We got some pea-sized hail today!
