What meteorological phenomenon (phenomena) affects you this day ? - Page 338

poohbear_nc · 07-11-2010, 06:38 PM

Thanks for your kind thoughts (and offers of solar cooking!) but I am stuck here for now - job & family obligations. Besides, Canada isn't looking much better these days.

I am careful.

But something really down about the next 7 days having the same forecast : high of 97 F - 100, lows of 73 F -- that ain't low!

Don't roast yourself. (as much as that sounds tasty) I'm just back from my second 3 miler and got almost blown away and rained (well sprinkled) on for about a mile or so.

I'm currently grilling "the other white meat" so chickens are spared tonight...

It is hard to keep all three of them covered.

How's about under the deck !?

15C this morning - sunny and dry, but hundreds of d*** flies around.

Showers promised - and where have I heard that before ...

No idea about temps, but it's raining and there's lightning and thunder and this morning I also saw some hail stones. They put out a weather warning, code orange, for today... Heavy rain and heavy winds. Our national rain radar site is completely overwhelmed (but they know how to handle that, by going into overdrive mode, which means stripping everything from the site, and only showing the radar images

). Luckily, I can use the German variety as well and there's a lot more coming our way!

Most of France appears to be under orange warning too, because of the thunderstorms. Not too bad here though, there was a thunderstorm this morning but I think it wasn't right above me. It did rain, and now the weather is still overcast and cool (but still clammy, yuck).

Wow. You guys have color-coded weather in Europe!
