Pleasantly cool at the moment, but that's about to change again

The weather
Weather direction has changed now coming  predominantly from the southwest.
Even though there may be minor changes in the daily high temperature between 33 to 35,
the feels like temperatures are getting ready to soar again.
Water in the air, also known as high humidity will make temperatures feel like 40 to 55.

It's algae and fungus season.  My pool will require extra doses of chlorine and soda.
These two ingredients are also great for cleaning fungus and mildew around the house.
Flu viruses don't survive in high humidity according to research.

Scattered Rain and thunderstorms at times.

Another Rat, that's what I thought 

Saw this little creature out on the roof and tried to chase it away with a broom.
Minutes later, while tending to the garden, Joey screamed. He had gotten bit.
He had cornered and caught the pest near the pool.
"I used to have one of those in Bangkok as a pet," Joey mentioned.
We spent over an hour gathering materials and build a temporary cage.
Then he got the talking dictionary and confirmed that wet ball of fur was a squirrel.
We added apple slices and peanuts to the cage.
That squirrel lost all shyness and fear and began feasting like there was no tomorrow.
