10/2/2009 7:00 AM 0.17 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Started sprinkling about 10:30 a.m. yesterday and rained slowly all day and evening. Sunny this Fri a.m. The tree leaves are glistening with moisture as the sun shines on them. Enchanting sight.
10/3/2009 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Brisk breeze all night---frost will soon be on the pumpkins
10/5/2009 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 45 degrees--looks as tho the sun will be bright as it comes up

10/7/2009 6:00 AM 0.42 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 48 degrees at 6:00 a.m. Beautiful day
10/8/2009 6:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Is presently raining. Leaves on most trees are still remarkably green, altho several oak leaves are falling. We have many more walnuts on the ground than we've ever had before. Is this a sign of a fruitful growing season or a harsh winter to come and nature is providing amply for the squirrels???
10/9/2009 7:00 AM 2.42 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Has rained all day, since I took the reading this a.m. What a beautiful gentle rain, we've had. Thank goodness no storm with it. Guess, I should make a concerted effort to start transporting the houseplants inside. I'm sure they would appreciate the warmth. A lady in town reminded me this a.m. of the folklore of why Marshall doesn't receive bad storms. INTERESTING---actually, it was the same story I was taught as a child.
10/12/2009 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 46 degrees this a.m., while it was only 38 degrees yesterday.
10/14/2009 6:00 AM 0.64 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No percipitation to record yesterday. Worked outside cutting wood/cleaning up section of woods for forestry program. Repotted some plants & got some muscle in the evening to carry the heavier plants inside. 46 degrees this a.m. -- definitely a damp chill to the air. Have already changed plans for the day--to indoor activities with a second cup of hot tea.

10/22/2009 6:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Mulched leaves yesterday. Beautiful day. No rain until the wee hours of this a.m. Harvested soybeans---still way TOO wet--will need to work some magic in the grain bin, which will be expensive.

10/31/2009 6:00 AM 0.50 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Sure is a bite to the air this a.m. Total percipitation for Oct.--- 7.29" WOW!!
11/2/2009 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No percipitation for 2 days---Heavy frost last two mornings. Yesterday's sun sure felt good. Took a Sunday drive to areas around that we don't usually travel----almost no harvesting started. Persimmons are tasting yummy---have been transplanting asparagus. My upside-down bucket tomatoes are still hanging in there. Not producing much now, tho.
11/3/2009 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 The sun is absolutely brilliant this a.m. Yesterday, was a perfect day for mulching leaves. Apparently, we've had quite a wind storm some time---found a whole section/path in the woods that have the tops blown out of the trees.
11/4/2009 6:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Raining at 3:45 a.m. Looks as tho it will be another beautiful day.

As some bow deer hunters left a couple of days ago, the deer stood out in the middle of the road and sang, "Ha, Ha, Ha, ha you didn't get me!" We are still surrounded with unharvested corn fields. There have been several grain bin fires in our vicinity from drying corn.

2/16/2010 6:00 AM T T T M M Late reporting--computer prob this a.m. Snowed intermittently yesterday--however, the flakes danced & drifted w/the wind---no way to get a true measurement. We were discussing winter last night & the concensus of our memories was that it has been a lot of years since we had had such a length of time with continuous snow coverage. Apparently, our bodies are becoming acclimated to the cold---because 16 or 20 degrees no longer feels cold.

Everywhere there is ponding in the fields, ditches are full, & gravel roads are a real mess. Corn & beans alike are standing in water. Saw two fields in distant areas where they had harvested soybeans in the fields the last day or two and had made some pretty seirous ruts. Tearing up the fields damages the yields the next year. Hopefully, have some of the internet problems corrected.
