What meteorological phenomenon (phenomena) affects you this day ? - Page 738

Yup! My gray car is now green every morning!

FlorenceArt · 03-21-2012, 05:54 AM

Green? I thought pollen was yellow!!!

Very nice spring weather here, and if the weather forecast it right (no reason why it should, but I'm hopeful), the week-end should be delicious.

poohbear_nc · 03-21-2012, 08:49 AM

We have both green & yellow pollen here. The tree pollen (which is now burying us) seems to be predominantly green.

Another night of endless storms - we're having pop-up thunder storms that don't move. Continuous thunder & lightning from 9 pm to around midnight, livened up with monsoon rains at 11 pm.
Sigh ... we'll be in this weather pattern for at least the next week.

I just took my lunchtime walk and the pond behind the office is completely filmed over with yellow pine pollen. The air was also pretty electric and I'd wager our storms won't wait until 9pm tonight....

Not riding the treadlie to the gym today!
I have pumped the pool out twice already, the road is so full the backyard drain is under a few inches.
rain rain bugger off!

Your snaky persona will be developing a webbed tail! It does seem to be overdoing it up your way.

We are promised a cold wet day tomorrow, but that's okay - a good day to stay inside and read!

SneakySnake · 03-22-2012, 03:12 AM

now the pool is overflowing and no point in pumping as the street is three feet deep and the drains aren't coping. bugga.

watching the water come up to the back door. Shoes all floated away

Had enough rain now!

Ouch, I hope the rain stops before your house is flooded!

Do you have a boat to get away? How will you paddle?

SneakySnake · 03-22-2012, 07:09 AM

Rain has eased up and back door not under water anymore! Localised flooding caused a few evacuations etc.

But back to my issues. Bloody pool chlorinator computer not happy. - made it difficult to pump out overflowing pool. Circuit board a but stuffed and now can't put time in. Bloke has kinda fixed it so it will run with a bit of help, but really need a new one.

Things always break when it rains.

and poor cat not happy - he spent the whole day on the couch and is now very bored and wants out, but still raining.

poohbear_nc · 03-22-2012, 08:19 AM

Didn't get storms last night - they stayed south of us. Heavy morning fog. Sunny & continued unnaturally warm - it's official - the USA has had the 8th warmest winter ever recorded.

Scientists had predicted another La Nina in the Pacific Ocean would make it a "brutal" winter for the United States in 2012. Things may be worse than we thought. I dread this summer.

poohbear_nc · 03-22-2012, 05:41 PM

Now waiting to see if killer storm, currently bashing the midwest, arrives full force Friday night/Saturday morning to finish us off!

[nipping out to mow the lawn tonight - may be my last chance for a semi-dry lawn for some time!]

Yes. Dread the future for a long while. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/product.../churchill.php

Because of this hideously unnatural warm "winter" the ticks are already a problem now - no frost to kill them. So preparing to mow almost takes longer than mowing the lawn [summer wellies, white cotton clothing all tucked in, lots & lots of Deep Woods Off, etc.]

Clouding up now - very humid.

mirandu85 · 03-23-2012, 05:31 AM

very hot outside...almost to hot for my taste
