σημερον θερμος εστιν εν τῃ γῃ μου. ἡ δε ηλιος φλεγει. ου πνεουσιν οι ανεμοι. δια τουτο χαιρω δη.

βοήθησον-
«συγνωμην» ου οιος τ` ειμι ευρειν. συ + γνωμη ="together understanding"?
«επιχεειν» ου οιος τ` ειμι ευρειν
«χλωρα» = το χρωμα μηλου?? (ie yellow/green)
Please can I have some hints in English, because at the moment, understanding what you are saying is beyond my current level of Ancient Greek.

{συγγνώμην ἔχε = literally, "have forgiveness=forgive me, I'm sorry"

ἐπιχέω I pour over, sometimes I think the infinite contracts, ἐπιχέειν=ἐπιχεῖν

χλωρά literally "green things"= grass. τέμνω τὰ χλωρά I mow the lawn.}

Don't apologize. It's my fault again, this was typo. I meant κύανος. σήμερον κύανος ὁ οὐρανός. The sky is blue today. I sometimes think that my Greek is as bad as my English.

As long as I'm English, there is a major weather story today here in Denver, Colorado. High of 60 today, tomorrow high of 20, low of 5 with 6-12 inches of snow. April is the cruelest month.

σήμερον μὲν φλἐγει ὁ ἥλιος. ἐπαύριον δὲ οἱ σοφοὶ λέγουσιν ὅτι πολλὴ νιφὰς πεσοῦνται ἐξ οὐρανοῦ.

We keep talking about the weather here, but we don't DO anything about it. λόγοι μὲν, ἔργα δ' οὐ!

The wind that I described as "ο βασιλεος ανεμων" was unknown to the ancient Greeks so it was hard for me to describe in Greek. Let me know if I failed to produce something intelligible and I'll give it to you in English.

It's certainly intelligible. I assume that you are referring to some local meteorological phenomenon, some kind of strong wind.
ελπιζω οτι θερμοτερον εσται ου οικεις τημερον.

I was trying to describe the jet stream. Not at all local but it may be local in the sense that it may be a fad of British weather forecasters to explain everything as down to the position of the jet stream. It was never mentioned until a couple of years back.
