I live a 100km inland from the ocean, and we live at this time of year for the seabreeze- called locally the easterly. Today the wind turned from W to E, the dewpoint rose from 9 16C within 2 minutes, and the temp fell from 30C to 21C. The air smells of the sea, and becomes hazy.

a perfectly clear day from sunrise to sunset today - broke my all time record for solar production (92kwH) today as I was able to use all of the production and not ground it (had to fully charge the car!)

Just finished listening to a wonderful concert featuring voice, musette, and 90 minutes of harpsichord. I'm so disappointed @telescoper.bsky.social couldn't be here to enjoy it with me
