You're welcome!
The temperature is 59 right now and it feels great. It's quite breezy, though - 19mph.

Yeah, a little breezy today thats for sure. But hey, I havent had to run the heat OR A/C in over a month now, this'll do! lol
Just got back in from outside, I enjoyed watching the few puffy cumulus clouds against that deep blue sky. Looks great!

Chilly again today (60 degrees), but not a cloud to be seen. Im debating between playing inline hockey or soccer, perfect weather for both. Hmmmm.

Been absolutely gorgeous the last few days. Yesterday got a bit toasty with decently high humidities, but cooled off nicely at night (64 degrees) as well as a drop in humidities. Right now its a perfect 72 degrees under cloudless skies with 34% humidity.

Steve-o, I see your posts and pictures a lot. I really appreciate them.
My husband and I are moving to the Alton area. The only concern I have is the thunderstorms because I have 3 cats that run for cover when we get a little distant rumble here (Northern CA). How do you deal with pets and thunderstorms? Is there some way to get them used to it?

If your animals dont like Northern CA thunder, theyll definitely despise IL.  Not only are our thunderstorms more intense, but theyre more frequent than in CA, too.
Today is nice and cool, mostly cloudy with peaks of sunshine, low humidities. Rain tonight and tomorrow, which is much needed. Our grass is getting crunchy and a little brown.
