Humid

The excessive Texas heat and humidity here in North Texas area have kept me pretty well out of my workshop. I can spend a few hours there with the fans blowing but then I want to escape to the air conditioning. The heat ~100 degrees is not too bad when the humidity is low, but we have been getting Houston like weather for a few weeks. Year 2010’s first hurricane Alex was a big part of the moisture problem.  No wind here, but a lot of spin-off rain. The yard is doing fine!

Another problem is the CNC computers are not cooling well when shop temperatures are 100 -105 degrees drybulb. The computers are just not designed to run in these eleveated temperature environments. I did get some glitches in the HB2 computer after a 2 hour cutting run. I was already finished, thank goodness. I hadn’t realized how hot it was in the shop.

Today is Friday July 9th and the humidity is still up. I am hoping we get a little break so I can spend the weekend in the shop. I have a lot of clean up I want to do and also map out a few projects to get back on the front burner.

Gloria is in Oregon for a few weeks so I want to take advantage of the “my time” I have available!
