Well, let me tell ya ’bout the weather, ya know, like that July 10th stuff. It’s somethin’ folks always jawin’ about, ain’t it? Hotter than a pepper sprout sometimes, or maybe wet like a drowned chicken. Weather, that’s what I’m talkin’ about.
Now, some places, they get real hot in July. Like them furrin’ countries, you know? I heard tell they got places where it’s hotter than a cookstove all day long. Heard it on that talkin’ box, the TV they call it. Said somethin’ ’bout 23 to 30 degrees… Celsius, I think they called it. Sounded mighty hot to me. That’s what them city folks call a heat wave, I reckon.
- Hot weather means ya gotta drink lots of water, ya hear? Don’t wanna dry up like a prune.
- And stay outta the sun when it’s high up in the sky, burns ya somethin’ awful.
- Wear a hat, too. Keeps the sun off yer face.
But then, some other places, they get rain somethin’ fierce. Whole buckets pourin’ down, day in, day out. They said somethin’ ’bout monsoon season. Sounds like a heap of trouble to me. All that rain, gotta keep the chickens cooped up or they’ll float away! And the crops, well, they need water, but not too much, ya see. It’s a tricky business, this weather stuff.
Now, them cities, like that Delhi place or Mumbai, they got their own weather goin’ on. Always talkin’ ’bout temperatures and wind and… atmos… somethin’ or other. Fancy words for hot, cold, or windy, if ya ask me. They got folks who spend all day just watchin’ the weather, makin’ charts and such. Don’t know what they do with ’em all, but I guess it keeps ’em busy.
I remember one time, it was July, just like now, and the rain came down so hard, it washed out the whole road. Couldn’t get to town for nothin’. Had to eat beans and taters for a week straight. That’s what I call a storm. Not like these little sprinkles they call rain in the city.
And the heat, oh Lordy, the heat. Makes ya sweat just thinkin’ about it. Can’t get nothin’ done when it’s that hot. Just gotta sit on the porch, drinkin’ somethin’ cool, and waitin’ for the sun to go down. They say it’s the humidity that gets ya. Air so thick, ya can hardly breathe. Makes the cows lazy and the dogs pant somethin’ fierce. That’s when you know it’s a real scorcher.
So, July 10th, huh? Could be hot, could be rainy, could be both. Just gotta be ready for anythin’, that’s what I say. Keep an eye on the sky, listen to the wind, and if the chickens start lookin’ worried, well, you better batten down the hatches, cause somethin’s comin’. That’s how we do it around here, no fancy weather gadgets needed. Just good ol’ common sense and a feelin’ in yer bones.
Weather predictions ain’t always right, ya know. Them city folks with their machines, they can say it’s gonna be sunny, and then it’ll pour buckets. Or they’ll say it’s gonna rain, and the sun will be beatin’ down like it’s tryin’ to fry an egg on your head. That’s why I don’t put too much stock in them fancy forecasts. I just look outside and see what’s what. That’s the best way, the old-fashioned way.
But if you’re plannin’ on goin’ somewheres, like that Siem Reap place they was talkin’ about, well, you might wanna listen to them forecasts a little bit. Heard it’s hot and sticky there in July. Real hot, they said. So, pack light clothes and drink plenty of water, ya hear? And don’t forget a hat. Sun’s strong everywhere in July, far as I can tell. Whether it’s in France, South Korea, or even here in our parts. July means summer, and summer means heat and sometimes a lot of rain.
Anyway, that’s my two cents on the weather. Just remember to be prepared, stay safe, and don’t let the heat or the rain get ya down. July’s just doin’ what July does, ya know? Bringin’ on the summer, whether we like it or not. And on July 10th? Well, it will be weather, that’s for sure. Just gotta wait and see what kind.
