By Dorothy Warf, Contributing Writer We are back to having some warmer weather especially during the day but the nights have also not been as cold as they were a few nights ago. We have had a killing frost and almost anything that can’t stand the c...

By Dorothy Warf, Contributing Writer We are having our first taste of winter temperatures and with some rain in the mix the leaves are falling really fast. It is supposed to be really cold for the next few days at least compared to the temperatures...

By Dorothy Warf, Contributing Writer As one of my great-grandchildren described to me the other day as we were going somewhere, the forest is decorated with many colors such as yellow, brown, orange, green and other colors. We all know that now they...

By Dorothy Warf, Contributing Writer Lots of trees are losing their leaves as the fall weather begins to be more prevalent every day. This is a pretty time of year as the leaves are such a varied array of colors but at the same time a sad time for th...

By Dorothy Warf, Contributing Writer Although some have already seen temperatures in the upper forties it was 52 degrees here this morning a little before six. I guess you could say that fall weather is here of course we will have some more warm...

Although the nights have still been cool with temperatures in the fifties and sixties it is supposed to be in the upper eighties and even in the nineties during the days for the next several days. I like the cooler temperatures and know that soon it...

The nights are still cool with temperatures in the fifties and sixties and then in the daytime it gets up in the eighties. We are still having some showers with thunderstorms around the area. Except for the high temperatures during the day it has...

The nights lately have been cooler in the upper sixties, but the days are still in the eighties unless there is a thunderstorm with wind and rain and that has happened a lot lately. We need the rain, so we do not complain. The weather is one thing...

Another week of scattered showers around the area and not much rain in total. The days have been hot and dry for the most part and humidity has been rather high. Hope the high humidity with high temperatures have not caused you much breathing problem...

Not much rain this past week but still some pop-up showers and a few days with thunderstorms and rain. We have been blessed with rain to balance the lack from the early days of summer when it was so dry for days and days. Those I know of who are...

We still had some thundershowers and rain early last week but then the temperatures dropped at night and have been in the sixties during the early morning although during the day it still was in the eighties. The rain that we had has been really good...

We had another week of very hot days and pop-up thundershowers around the area. Sometimes there was no rain and others it was scattered around different areas. We are grateful for any rain we get because we have had a very dry summer. When it rains...

We have had a wet week and that is good although there were lots of thunderstorms around the area but no damage that I know of except lots of twigs and limbs around the area. We are thankful that we did not have the flooding that Kentucky is facing...

Well, the weather is one thing we can talk about but also one thing we can do nothing about. There has been very little change in out weather except it is a little hotter on some days and is still very dry. Those I know of who are sick either at...

Another hot dry week in the middle Tennessee area, I am sure you hear others say that we are drier than they can remember in many years, and this is what I hear also. It our area it is usually hot and dry in late July and August but not as early as...

The weather this past week was very unpredictable of course this could be said of the weather lots of times, but many days would be hot and then out of the clear blue skies a cloud would appear and then it would turn into a thunderstorm with wind, ra...

Hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable fourth of July weekend and remembered those who served and are serving to make this nation the greatest place on earth to live. There is no other nation that enjoys the freedoms that we have in this land and som...

On Sunday afternoon we finally received some much-needed rain arriving during the thunderstorm in the early afternoon. Not sure how much we got but every little bit helps when it has been dry for so long. Gardens have still been producing but it is...

We are really experiencing some high temperatures in the area with most days being in the nineties and nights still in the seventies and with little or no rain. Pastures and gardens and even yards are suffering from lack of rain. Hopefully we will...

I guess you could say Summer is officially here although not yet the calendar date. But with temperatures in the daytime above ninety degrees and even not cooler than the seventies at night, that is summertime temperatures. I guess you could say...

Summertime seems to be here a little early according to the calendar with temperatures in the eighties, and even close to ninety degrees, some days. Many of the children and older children are enjoying the creeks and pools that are already open...

We have had a few days and nights with cooler temperatures, but the days have been nice, even with a little breeze to help keep cool when outside. The yards are growing, especially the weeds, and sometimes it is hard to stay on top of the mowing. Som...

Summer appears to be upon us as the temperature reaches close to ninety degrees some days, we also had a thunderstorm on Saturday evening with fierce lightening and wind with rain. The rain was much needed, and we also got more rain on Sunday...

From the temperatures we have had it looks like summer is here, well maybe. It was in the upper eighties almost every day last week and it really made the children want to get in the creek or pools wherever they could. I would think that the creeks...

I guess ol’man winter is not finished with us yet, it was 45 on Friday and then on Saturday morning it was 55 still cool for spring but the blackberries are really blooming so guess this is blackberry winter. Maybe it will soon be warm and then we c...
