Growing up in Pittsburgh, I remember going to Lake Erie. It was about a 2 hr car ride.

tomorrow our temp will be 100 but at least it's not so humid but not as dry as AZ either.

I was in CA when it was 110 degrees in Ontario CA. I remember how hot it got. Good thing for AC.

We live close to a creek. Sunday evening flash floods hit us with a cloudburst and the creek overflowed its banks, sending us about 5 inches in 30 minutes. Then the power went out and my 2 sump pumps couldn't function.

My wife and I spend Sun. evening, with mops, buckets, and towels trying to battle a flooded basement. We lost.
We finally got most of it dry yesterday, but its a mess.

My next investment will be a generator. Now there is a flash flood watch, and behind that we have a hurricane coming.
I hope and pray it misses us.
 
Sorry to hear that exwisehe. It wouldn't surprise me if I get a little water in the basement too, depending on how hard it comes down, because the ground is soaked right now. A wet/dry shop vac works really well.

The news has been full of reports about flooded areas due to this latest storm....and most of the weather reports are saying that this year will be an active hurricane season...so the Gulf and East coasts will probably see more problems.

If you have a Harbor Freight store nearby, you might want to check out their Generators. Their "Predator" brand has a pretty good reputation, and their prices are the best. I would recommend getting one that has at least 7000 "running watts".

oh my, that sounds terrible! I hope it stops!
 
Currently it's partly sunny (am)... but humid. Temps are 74 deg f, but we're supposed to get torrential rain and T-storms from lunch time through into and including tomorrow. We have a whopping 97% humidity at the moment... not nice...
 
Yesterday,here in WNY,we hit 91,which ties the record set in 2006.
When I went on my early morning walk at 6:30 its was 74. Today, chance of rain or maybe a thundershower,highs in the 80's,at least there is a breeze Sue
 
Today,it will be partly sunny,with chance of rain in afternoon temps in mid 70s
The next couple days will be rainy in the 60's,a nice breather from the heat&humidity we had last week Sue
 
Clear, Blue, Sunny and high expected to be in mid to upper 90's today (Sunday, 6-3-18) here in Southern California :cool:. Don...
