What kind of weather are you having?


Silent

Recommended Posts

Past couple of days, we've had some really wonky weather. Partly cloudy one minute, the next, dealing with rain and hail. Was cool on those days, too...including me birthday, which was April 21. But today, its going to be sunny all day, and around 60 degrees. For the weekend? Partly cloudy and 79 degrees! And what am I bloody well doing this weekend? No, not fishing, flintknapping, or getting that mighty ship of war, the Henry Crun (my inflatable pontoon boat) out on the water...nay, me 'earties...I'm bloody well stuck *workin'* this bloody weekend!

Still, good enuff weather to be getting me three cornered hat back out of the closet...

Damn, thats sharp!

Yup... it's spring!

Weather alerts from the weather radios, the radio, TV... all of the severe storms and some producing tornadoes. Yup, had the first tornado of the season in Eastern Iowa. Confirmed with images just north of Cedar Rapids all the way up to north of Dubuque, off and on, skipping and jumping, restarting, etc.

So... yup! It's Spring! The storms have arrived!

I flew home to see my Spouse, planning on taking her for a ride in the convertible to see the last of the blue bonnets but it's been raining all week. :lol:

It's good weather if you're mold.... :D

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help....

Back in Florida, 80-something and humid. Molds and sea vegetation along the waterline are happy, :lol: although I attacked the waterline with a scrubbing pad this morning so the sea scum may not be all that happy. :lol:

I am working on making a forward hatch air conditioner housing for when it really heats up here.

VERY, VERY windy right now after a wickedly severe thunderstorm rolled through earlier this evening.

This has been a very strange Spring. The temps have been from one extreme to another and we are not seeing any true pattern for it.

Today, cloudy with rain..temps in the mid 50s. The norm should be about 65 to 70s!

In the Minneapolis/St. Paul area: Saturday, high about 50, with 30 mph winds. Tuesday, high of 93, still windy. Today, high near 100, windier still. Yesterday, it was 100 in southern MN, and 35 in Grand Marais MN, on Lake Superior near the Canadian border. And we have yet to have a weekend in May when the temp was 70 or higher. All this sun and warmth has come mid-week. This is one of the few benefits of being unemployed!

Been raining for most of the week with winds to around 25kn. Suppose to be one more day of this then a bit of sun. Have to bail out the dinghy at least once per day. Amazing how much fresh water it collects.

What a weekend! Unbelievable weather here in IA, IL, and WI on Friday night until Saturday morning.

High winds, incredible amounts of rains and several tornados deterred me from going to a wild west event this weekend. Large amounts of rain flooded highways and swelled rivers. Trees down, along with washed out roads. Oh, the joys of summer.
