WOW!,
Only 80 degrees and your grass is brown? What kind of grass do ya'll have
up there? I do remember working at Midwest Airlines in Milwaukee and they'd
turn the AC on in the hangars when it was 70 degrees in June! Bout froze
this Georgia boy to death! They were all sweating and complaining about the
massive heat wave and I had a sweatshirt on !
You guys going to OSH be sure and check out the sport plane section for
me!

I'm 60 miles straight west of OSH, no real difference in the weather from
here to there. I'm looking at partly cloudy skies, winds from the south,
south-west at around 15mph, 80 degrees (10:45am local). The area around
OSH
does have more clay in it's soil than we do, so the grass is a little
greener, but we nor they have had any rain since July 4th. Any greenness
around here is either irrigated or weeds. My lawn is absolutely dried and
fried, totally brown.

I noticed that they've combined a lot of wheat, rye, and oats around OSH,
nothing ready yet here, so that means they've been dryer and hoter than
us.
It's about 2 weeks earlier for them than last year.

is the long range model for this week, you'll have to de-code it, but
that
storm that's headed this way is primarily wind, no moisture, best chance
is
61% for Thursday at OSH, and that's a 50% chance of a thunderstorm, so it
could be spotty, sky cover either clear or partly cloudy, lows in the
60's,
highs in the mid to high 80s.
