Cold Front Will Produce Rain in the East, Heavy Rain Deep South & Areas of Severe Storms

Added: 2026-05-09

[00:00:13]Well, the warmest day of the week has come and gone. And now we look ahead to a cold front and some showers moving through the Northeast. There's some severe weather risks for parts of uh northern Pennsylvania and upstate New York and into northern New England overnight. and an even higher chance for severe weather from northeast Texas to uh the uh middle lower Mississippi River Valley. Much needed rain coming for the deep south and southeast and a spring snowstorm underway in the central Rockies. So, we've got much to talk about tonight on the Joe and Joe Weather Show podcast.

[00:02:19]So, how warm did you get today?

[00:02:22]>> Uh 83 was the high I think here in Butland Valley. So, yeah, we we we did pretty well by ourselves. Had a lovely afternoon. puffy fair weather clouds, a little haze, but lots of bright sunshine and a gusty wind. Joe, I that wind was really roaring. I mean, at times I think it was where I am, I guess it was over 30 or 35 miles hour. So, it was But you know what? Unlike, you know, several years ago, Rena and I, we went to Las Vegas and it was like 105 and the winds were blowing at about 30 miles an hour and it felt like walking into an 18,800 watt hair dryer. It wasn't like that today. We had very strong winds, but we had temperatures in the low 80s and the Dupoint levels, I'm going to assume, were on the comfortable side, maybe somewhere in the upper 50s. So, it was it was very nice, lovely, lovely afternoon.

[00:03:16]And I got to 80 degrees as well. I'm 69 now. It's actually raining out, believe it or not. And uh folks here in North Georgia are somewhat excited because uh looks like we could wind up with a couple of inches of rain. Uh flood watches are up uh for most of uh North Georgia, which we'll take a look at uh momentarily. Uh severe weather is uh also a possibility. So uh I am all set.

[00:03:45]I planted some more plants today and put down a little more mulch. So now I my yard can just absorb all the moisture. I don't have to stand out there uh with the hose. So meanwhile, I was just looking at the weather forecast for Denver. It's raining right now in Denver. Uh well, at least at the airport. It could be snowing in some of the areas around it. It's forecast to change over to snow and up to they're forecasting 8 to 12 inches out of this.

[00:04:15]This would be the biggest snowstorm of the whole winter spring cycle for them.

[00:04:21]>> It's amazing, isn't it? They couldn't do this in January or February or even March, but here it is mid May. By the way, a little while ago, not just a little while ago, literally a minute or two ago, we crossed over the midpoint of spring. We're halfway between the vernal equinox and summer solstice. So from here on it's going to be uh more and more toward summer. And yet here we are talking about a snowstorm on this fifth day of May, this Cinco de Mayo day in Denver and surrounding areas in Colorado. Mets canled. Met snowed out with the Rockies today. And uh I'm not sure what they're planning tomorrow or even on Thursday, but uh there you go.

[00:05:04]>> All right, let's uh let's get started here tonight. Welcome to everybody on the chat board and those of you lurking in the background. We love you too on the Joe and Joe Weather Show podcast.

[00:05:14]We're here Sunday through Thursday at 7:35 p.m. No schedule changes lie ahead.

[00:05:19]If there are, we'll let you know.

Of course, if you like the show, we like it. if you'd hit the like button and if you really like the show and you're watching this on a replay, hit the like button because then more people get to see the Joe and Joe Weather Show podcast and that can't be a bad thing.

[00:05:39]Uh meanwhile, on the watches and warnings map, uh you can see uh the green that's in uh uh north and western Georgia uh with a ton of fl of flood watches that erupt. The ground is like cement, so any rain is going to run right off at least for a while. And out in the west, uh, in the central Rockies, uh, that pinkish color, those are winter storm warnings that are up, uh, for Colorado, nor along I25, including Denver. Uh, and this would be the biggest snowfall of the well, the season goes from July 1st to to June 30th, so last July 1st.

[00:06:22]2025 to June 30th, 2026. So, so that's the season and this would be bigger than any snowfall that they had through all the winter months uh and the early part of the spring and the latter part of the autumn. So, it's kind of it is kind of crazy frost and freezes around the Great Lakes and to the northern plains. Also some frosts and freezes in the central Rockies. And as we check out the satellite loop, uh there are showers well to the north and west jaw, but there's a and no nothing severe at the moment, but there is a lead front that is pushing eastward and that's setting them off, but that's that's not going to make it uh to the coast. You're going to have to wait till later tomorrow. 6:30 this morning uh got a report or saw a report that there was a a thunderstorm over Gan which is not too far from where I am. Uh much of last night was clear but as we moved on toward dayb breakak I guess kind of an offshoot of the uh wet weather that was to the west and north of us uh one or two cells managed to make it as far south and east as part of the Hudson Valley, the western and northern part of the Hudson Valley. And as a result, there was indeed a few uh scattered showers and a rumble or two of thunder again in and around the ocean area, Wingers Falls, too. That never made it to my house. And in fact, by 8:30 or 9:00, it was blue sky and bright sunshine. And that set the stage for again a very uh summerlike day. I know it's spring, but uh felt more like summer by midday today.

[00:08:00]And in the meantime, you can see a lot of moisture gathered uh in the central plains uh into the northern Ohio Valley and then it's streaming up northeastward to the St. Lawrence River Valley. Uh the southeast had a beautiful day today, although clouds have rolled in by me and I just had a little bit of rain, not barely enough to make the ground wet.

[00:08:20]But this is also like you just described as sort of an offshoot of uh what's starting to develop out uh to uh the west. And you can see the concentration of clouds in the eastern half of Colorado as they deal with their um I don't know what to call it really. I mean it's kind of silly to call it a winter storm in the middle of in in the early part of May, but what else can you call it?

[00:08:45]>> I would be I would be surprised.

[00:08:47]>> I'm not going to ask you to do this, but I would not be surprised. You know, we did touch upon more than once during the winter months the fact that the Rockies and especially around the Wyoming and Colorado were deficit uh in snowfall that they had much below normal snow for uh for the winter season. But I wouldn't be surprised if uh either you or maybe I made the comment just maybe trying to be sarcastic or funny saying, "Well, they're waiting until May for their big for the big snow to hit." And here it is, early May, and we've got, as you just mentioned, the biggest snowfall of the year for uh part of uh Colorado and also for a small part of southeastern Wyoming.

[00:09:31]>> And here's the radar tonight, which, you know, it's pretty busy. We haven't seen the radar this busy uh in a while. And it's in this sort of bizarre kind of west to east u alignment. Uh and here's uh the echoes that are over Colorado. And you can see the concentration sitting right over Denver. Uh there's some bands of moderate snow in the darker greens and that's going to continue tonight into into the daytime tomorrow. Although I imagine given the time of year and the sun angle, they're probably going to have, you know, there's going to be some weird things going on tomorrow with the snow coming down, accumulating, and melting and and all the rest of it because the air is cold, but it's not, you know, we're not talking about teens and single digits here. We're talking temperatures that are going to be down in the mid and upper 20s tonight in the colder spots, but often times if it's snowing hard enough, that could be that could be enough uh to be supportive. Uh in the meantime, uh it would go up into upstate New York and getting into some uh moderate to some areas of heavy rain uh in southwest New York in and around Buffalo uh moving up the St. Lawrence River Valley, also back through parts of Ohio and Indiana and Illinois. Although we do not really see any thunderstorms here showing up at the moment. I'm sure there's a rumble or two of thunder in in in a few spots. In the area where there's severe weather tonight, there's not a whole lot happening yet. Uh but we'll probably see some thunderstorms developing overnight uh in the severe weather risk zone, which I'll show you in a moment. Meanwhile, over me, you can see that light green area in northern Georgia. That's what I'm under now. uh and it's it's probably producing a trace amount or maybe a hundth or two uh at the uh absolute most. And here's the uh risks tonight. Areas a marginal risk uh interior areas of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, upstate New York, uh small portion of northern Pennsylvania, and then you've got this area to the south uh from northeast Texas into western Tennessee, including a good portion of the state of Arkansas. where we have a slight risk and a 5% tornado risk in some areas. But um at least so far there are no severe thunderstorms around and there are no severe thunderstorm watches uh going up. Uh so here's your um here's your look for to for tonight. There's that 5% area. Now tomorrow uh we've got uh they've got general thunderstorms to you and into southern New England. We have an enhanced risk extreme northeast Louisiana to central Alabama. Slight risk goes all the way to the South Carolina line, the South Carolina Georgia line on the west side on the east side. And on the west side, it goes in it covers northeastern Texas.

[00:12:21]And we have a 10% tornado risk tomorrow in parts of central Mississippi and central Alabama, although they are of the intensity of EF1s. EF1s or less is what they're indicating. That doesn't mean there can't be an EF2. And here's your surface map tonight that you got a squiggly front there running from upstate New York between Erie and Pittsburgh cutting across Ohio and then running down into a low in eastern Oklahoma. That's the one that's going to get going as a wave on this cold front.

[00:12:55]And you know, I don't think you're you're going to see some rain out of this, Joe, but I don't think you're you're going to see a lot of My uh my guess from uh from looking at the maps today, I'm I'm thinking that uh we'll we'll see the first showers, scattered showers sometime tomorrow in the tri-state area between about 9:00 a.m., maybe as early as 9:00 a.m. to about noon time. After the 12:00 hour, that's when the showers will begin to get more uh intense or more frequent or more widespread. I'd say that first half of the day tomorrow, anywhere from a trace or a little bit of uh precipitation to maybe a quarter of an inch and then maybe uh uh another quarter of an inch for the second half of the day tomorrow into tomorrow evening. So the total amount of precipitation locally, Joe, I would think would be just shy of maybe a a half an inch, maybe a quarter to a half an inch. Nothing really to write home about. Certainly not enough to uh put up any flood advisories or uh uh warnings.

[00:14:01]Uh it's it's it's it's just going to be a rather cloudy wet afternoon.

[00:14:07]Especially I I mentioned the possibility of a I didn't even say a thunderstorm or a thunder shower. I said maybe a rumble of thunder uh tomorrow in the afternoon as the rains or the showers become uh more widespread. It really doesn't look again like anything uh significant or substantial. One thing that does appear to be possible the temperatures which were so very warm today. Tomorrow well first half of the day we might get up as high as 64 65 but then during the afternoon with all the wet weather and cloud cover and areas of fog I think we may actually drop a few degrees. So, we may go from low to mid60s in the morning to maybe mid to low 60s or near 60 by the end of the afternoon tomorrow.

[00:14:55]>> All right. And meanwhile, for me, get the total precept up. The digital forecast for you is pretty much on the order of a quarter to a half an inch, maybe let's go call it a third a third to 5/8 of an inch of liquid is what it's on the digital cross forecast. some higher amounts. When you go into upstate New York, we're looking at an inch and a quarter, inch and a half, even some amounts approaching 2 in in some places.

[00:15:22]Same goes for northern Vermont and New Hampshire. Uh about an inch to an inch and a quarter, although there's an odd 2.64 that stands out there right in the middle of Maine. Uh we'll see how that plays. Meanwhile, the rain amounts also on the order of generally a third of an inch to 2/3 of an inch heading down into Virginia. And then you get into North Carolina, and then you start to see the, you know, one inch plus amounts, and then two inch plus amounts in uh southern Tennessee, back through Alabama, uh northern Georgia, uh an inch and a half to an inch and 3/4 in the middle of the state of Georgia, and then South Georgia where they probably could use the the higher amounts, but still uh on the order of an inch to an inch and a half, which I don't think they'll they'll project that. they'll they'll certainly take it because this is really the driest part of the state is the southern part um because they're under exceptional drought and these uh solid rainfall amounts extend back uh into Mississippi and parts of um Louisiana.

[00:16:26]Uh the uh there's also let me just bring this up too because I didn't think to do it but I'll do it now. Uh we do have of on the standpoint of flooding.

[00:16:39]Uh so for tonight there's a small slight risk area in western Tennessee and eastern Arkansas and this general area of a marginal risk of um 5 to 15% uh of a possibility that there could be uh some flash flooding. And then when we look at tomorrow, it's a little more uh robust where we have a 15 to 40% chance for flash flooding across central Mississippi, uh much of Alabama, northern Georgia, western, south into North Car, western North Carolina, and southeastern Tennessee. So, uh there's that. Obviously, you don't see anything in the northeast. And as we move on to day three, so this is now for Thursday into Friday, there's a marginal risk from southern Louisiana uh into central Georgia and into South Carolina. So there is, you know, flood risks are there for sure. And again, the ground, you know, there's been so little rain here over the past three or four months.

[00:17:41]I mean, the ground is is is still, even though we had about an inch to an inch and a half just a week or so ago, a lot of that just ran off. So, the ground is still, trust me when I tell you that the ground is still um like concrete. Here's the 7-day rainfall totals.

[00:17:58]The WPC in its wisdom has a green area of a quarter of an inch over the over central and south Jersey. And then it's got a half an inch on either side. And then you get higher amounts of 3/4 of an inch to an inch and a half in upstate New York and northern New England. Uh there's another area of less than a quarter of an inch in western southwest PA. It's hard to say because it's sort of between west and south central and south southwest. Uh northeastern West Virginia and northwestern Virginia in a quarter of an inch, but everybody around that is in the half 3/4 zone. And then you see across the south, we're looking at a big area of an inch and a half plus. And then another uh area inside of that that's fairly large. uh and uh that's forecasting uh 2 to 2 and 1/2 in of liquid. Meanwhile, the melted preip in Colorado is going to be on the order of about a half to 3/4 of an inch. A few places a little bit more. Not much going on out in the west. So, here's our surface map on the European tonight.

[00:19:04]Nothing going until we get to tomorrow morning. In comes some shower activity.

[00:19:09]Yeah, this thing splits in two, Joe. you get u you know there's a sort of solid area of rain tomorrow morning. The northern half splits away from the southern half and and goes out to the northeast and then the southern half gets energized and you see all that yellow and red uh in Mississippi and Alabama that passes well to your south.

[00:19:31]So it's quite possible that the risk for showers after tomorrow evening is done for you.

[00:19:37]>> Yeah. I in my forecast I said in my forecast I said that after midnight tomorrow night uh diminishing and ending and I even have clearing working in by uh daybreak Thursday and Thursday should kick right off with sunshine for much of the day and while it will not be as warm as what we had today. We're certainly not going to see the 80s but temperatures should make it back up into the 60s on Thursday again with lots of bright sunshine. I agree.

[00:20:07]It looks like the the bulk of whatever falls precipitation wise in the tri-state area tomorrow will probably be during the daylight hours after dark tomorrow night. They'll peter out and probably be over said and done by or soon after midnight.

[00:20:24]>> Once this goes out and this will go out uh offshore and you will have some improvement on Thursday.

[00:20:33]Friday's got the upper trough nearby and there's instability with some showers developing in inland areas. So, I think you have to toss in the chance that there could be a rain shower or two. And then there's another upper trough that comes through on Saturday and that has a you know that has an area of rain that comes in Saturday morning and moves out by later Saturday afternoon. But if everything moves along, it should uh Sunday, Mother's Day, actually looks like to looks to be a mostly dry day until maybe uh later in the evening when another weather front passes by with uh some showers and then it's cool, chilly, and dry behind that. It's actually quite chilly uh for the first part of next week.

[00:21:21]>> Yes. In fact, uh, Climate Prediction Center is indicating that there could be, uh, some rather, uh, chilly, if not cold temperatures for the early part of next week for a broad area of not only the Northeast, but also parts of the Ohio Valley. But yeah, Saturday looks like to be a very nice day with, excuse me, Mother's Day looks to be a very nice day with a fair amount of sunshine and temperatures that should make it up into the 70s. And that would be very nice for all of the moms out there. I do I have one other thing I I we have a gentleman on the chat board, Raul Raul Perez. And I have to, you know, tell you Raul, I can't speak for Joe, but I was terrible in Spanish in high school. So I really I I I recognize some words like Pacificico and Huracanas and uh esta simana. But, uh, basically, unless I take what you're writing and put it into one of those Google translators, I really don't know what you're what you're saying.

[00:22:25]>> I'm doing that right now.

[00:22:27]>> Okay.

[00:22:28]>> Um, I'm going to use chat GPT.

[00:22:32]Let's see.

[00:22:36]Um, so on the I'll tell you how bad I was in Spanish.

[00:22:44]my high school, my my average in high school could have been at least five points or seven points higher if it weren't for Spanish. I was terrible in SP. In fact, one of my one of my best friends uh sadly he passed away last year uh PhD astronomer Glenn Schneider when we wrote in each other's uh uh autograph books, he wrote in my book, "Roses are red, violets are blue. Don't feel bad. I failed Spanish, too.

[00:23:14]>> Okay. Um All right. Come on. You know, it can't be that difficult.

[00:23:22]Um in the Eastern Pacific, hurricanes are going to form this week. We want to know if hurricanes are going to form since we talk a lot about hurricanes. If they're in the Eastern Pacific, Raul, uh you're not it's not a problem for you. They're in the Eastern Pacific.

[00:23:38]They don't they they they don't go from the Eastern Pacific into the Atlantic and head to head toward Puerto Rico. It doesn't work that way.

[00:23:47]>> Okay. So, um you've got nothing to worry about right now. Yeah. With the El Nino, uh it would stand to reason that the Eastern Pacific will have a very active hurricane season and it might be one that starts pretty early, uh probably during this month. In fact, let's just see.

[00:24:08]I'm going to see.

[00:24:10]I know they start the tropical weather outlooks in the Pacific a little earlier than they start ours on the 15th, which is only 10 days away.

[00:24:20]Uh in the Eastern Pacific, let's see.

[00:24:22]Nope, they haven't started the uh outlooks there. So then there's nothing going on that's uh that that's that certainly there's nothing that goes on in the Eastern Pacific that will have any impact on you. So, we can say that pretty safely. Oh, he's got something else here. Let's see. Let me >> Chrisedia has translated using Google.

[00:24:45]How is the Atlantic basin? How are the tropical waves? These tropical waves are going to bring a lot of rain to Puerto Rico. We want to know if the tropical waves we want to know if the tropical waves at this time of year.

[00:24:59]>> Thank you, Christina Pedy. Appreciate that. Well, um All right. Well, let's let me see. Hold on a second. Let's see what's going on out there. Let's get a satellite book. Uh satellite imagery.

[00:25:16]We'll get the Where's that big Atlantic wide view?

[00:25:22]Okay. So, I'll put it up on the screen for you, Raul, because you know, we're that you know, we're very cooperative here on the Joe and Joe Weather Show podcast. We aim to please. So, this is what it looks like now. And you'll notice, by the way, that um the the the cloud cover in the tropical Atlantic, what little there is, is moving southwest to northeast. Uh there's some low clouds that are moving east to west.

[00:25:47]There's nothing around. I mean, there's absolutely nothing around in the short, I would say, probably for the next four or five days, you don't have any issues.

[00:25:54]There's nothing here. Okay? It's too early. It's way too early uh for you to worry about it. But bear in mind that, you know, when it it comes time to worry, Joe and I will worry and let you know.

[00:26:09]Okay.

[00:26:11]Uh I didn't expect to be doing some tropical stuff today.

[00:26:15]>> No. Um I didn't expect trying to make translations from Spanish to English.

[00:26:20]>> Exactly. All right. Um I guess we can go to Briller Jeopardy now.

[00:26:26]>> I see. What is Wait a minute. What does May mean? May and the months of the May and the months of the month of May. The rainiest months of the year for Puerto Rico. The rainiest months are the months of May. And which would be the rainiest months the month of May?

[00:26:45]>> I'm I'm I'm reading it exactly the way Google translated this. What does May mean? May and the months of the month of May. The rainiest months of the year for Puerto Rico. The rainiest months are the months of May. And which would be the rainiest months? the month of month of month of May.

[00:27:04]>> I think we're I think we should move on now. That is technology >> that that's totally messed up my head.

[00:27:10]>> Yes.

[00:27:11]>> You know, that's sort of along the lines of how much wood does a did a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood.

[00:27:19]>> That's kind of what that that's kind of what that sounds like.

[00:27:23]>> Yes. Something like that.

[00:27:24]>> Yeah.

[00:27:25]>> All right. So, let us go to Briller Jeopardy. And uh tonight on Briller Jeopardy uh uh average highs now we're back to we we we did the extremes yesterday but now we're do talking about average highs again for the month of May for the following cities starting with Atlanta. Average high in the month of May in Atlanta. Joe, >> I will say well by the end of the month I'll I I'll say 78.

[00:28:05]>> 78 is not a bad estimate or guesstimate, but it's a little on the low side.

[00:28:11]>> Well, Frank R is at 81.

[00:28:14]>> Frank R, this is for you.

[00:28:19]There you go. 81 right on the nose.

[00:28:22]Let's go to Boston.

[00:28:26]>> Boston.

[00:28:27]>> Average average high in the month of May in Boston.

[00:28:37]>> I'll say um hold on. I'll say 68.

[00:28:48]Right there, Joe. You were right there.

[00:28:51]Snake country for you.

[00:28:53]>> Okay. Um, well, uh, let's see.

[00:28:56]Everybody, a lot of people said 68.

[00:28:59]>> Marky D hit it with 67.

[00:29:03]>> 67.

[00:29:05]>> 67.

[00:29:07]Let's go to the another B city. Balmer.

[00:29:11]Baltimore.

[00:29:13]>> 67.

[00:29:17]Um, I'll say I'll say 74.

[00:29:25]>> Again, a very good guess. A little on the coolish side, however.

[00:29:30]>> Uh, Le Point is at 75. Roth Mansky's at 76, >> and David Fuller's at 77.

[00:29:40]>> Rich Rothmansky got it with 76 degrees.

[00:29:44]There you go. How about North Carolina?

[00:29:47]Charlotte, North Carolina.

[00:29:50]Average high in the month of May.

[00:29:52]>> What did we say for Atlanta?

[00:29:55]>> 81.

[00:30:00]>> I'll say I'll say 80.

[00:30:05]>> Where's the bell?

[00:30:07]There's the bell.

[00:30:11]Da da da da da. All right.

[00:30:16]And here comes the windy city. Chicago.

[00:30:21]Chicago. Chicago.

[00:30:26]>> Chicago. I'll say um I'll say 71.

[00:30:34]>> Once again, Joe, right there. Snake country for you.

[00:30:39]>> Okay. Uh, Marky Marky D said 72.

[00:30:43]>> And that is it. 72.

[00:30:46]And tonight, for the first time, as I ring the bell for Marky D, first time in a while, we have a bonus city. Montreal.

[00:30:54]>> Oh, I don't care about Montreal for God's sake. I have no idea. Um, I'll say I I'm going to just pick a number. I'll just uh uh What did we say for Boston?

[00:31:08]>> 67. 67. Uh, so for Montreal, I'll say um 60.

[00:31:15]>> Oh, much too cool, Joe.

[00:31:17]>> Yeah, I figure. I have no clue.

[00:31:20]>> Richmany right there at 65.

Um, in fact, let me just see if Hold on a second. Let me just check something here. Um, la.

[00:32:24]Okay. So, I guess I can bore everybody with this. Um, hold on a second.

Here's St. Francis as he's surrounded by flocks and liies and strawberry hydrangeas. And then there's dillies behind them. And I forgot what this yellow thing is, but it's quite pretty. Um, and there's um a view from the the uh top of from just off the front of my house. And those are h red hydrangeas. You can see the pink hydrangeas way in the back next to the propane tank. And this is what it looks like from the top. Um, and there's my Mary on the half shell with um with her impatience surrounding surrounding her. And this is one of my prized roses. Joe, I don't know if you can Can you see it?

[00:33:41]>> Yes, I can.

[00:33:46]>> Wow. I mean, that is really my I'm just like that's my favorite. I I I love that that rose that rose and it's it's it's it's strug This year the last couple of years it's really struggled because of the soil, but this year it seems to have like you know I gave some extra fertilizer and you know some other things and and it's um really done well.

[00:34:09]So I have to say that I'm very proud of that particular rose.

[00:34:16]Looks very nice. Beautiful.

[00:34:18]>> And that's um you know and that's it. So there you go. That's my >> Somebody wrote on the chat boy was Conroy Jet. I love the variety of colors and so do I.

[00:34:31]>> Thank you. I do have a wide view. Let me just show you the wide view. So this is the view. This is what it looks like from the road. I'll bring it up on the screen.

[00:34:45]Sorry to hear Marky D. Marky D4 48 says by me in Florida my plants are all dead.

[00:34:51]Lack of rain.

[00:34:53]>> I'm still not finished with the mulching at the bottom of this shot. But this is what it looks like from the road to my house to my cabin.

[00:35:03]I mean I to I am so proud of this. I really am. I did I've been you know I've been working really hard and it just seemed to all kind of mesh together this year. Um, and these are, by the way, these are japonicas here, Japanese laurels that that uh border all of this at the bottom. And then we switch over to aelas, which have been struggling a little bit, but they've been coming they've been coming in nicely in the last week or so. So anyway, that is that's my house.

[00:35:37]And there you have it. So, on that note, this is why you need to shop on Amazon, our referral link, because with the coin back, I can buy more plants.

[00:35:50]>> See, now the two of us, we we grew up in the Bronx, a very urbanized area. And yet, in the end, where did we end up? In very rural settings.

[00:36:00]I I I have always really appreciated very much u I mean not that I didn't enjoy growing up in the Bronx, but I think I would have I would have thrived better in a in a rural environment.

[00:36:15]Yeah. I just I I just, you know, I just love it being out in the woods and being with trees and the and and the animals and everything else. Thank god the g the deer have stayed away. So I'm I'm happy about that.

[00:36:30]>> Yeah, the deer here, you know, it's one of the reasons why Rada has said often that she really can't plant a real garden. We have we have pots that are right up near the front door. And very rarely do we see the deer even attempt to come, you know, all the way up to the front door. They usually just stay out in the in the woods or out on the lawn somewhere. But uh yeah, it's it's difficult here because of the wildlife.

[00:36:57]I mean, we we have the deer, we have squirrels, we have, you know, the occasional raccoon, chipmunk, skunk, you know, that's what it's what it's like when you live in the country.

[00:37:10]>> Yeah, it's quite true. Quite true. But I like that. So anyway, >> we'll be back tomorrow night, right?

[00:37:21]7:35 the usual time >> we'll be here.
