How's The Weather By You?

Great day here in Paradise ..... we got some rain at last: 21mm. Yippee. We'll be able to use the tanks for a while instead of the council (costly) water. :)
 

I hope all the seniors here from Europe are surviving the storms okay.Looks like a big one covering a lot of area.

We are expecting some stormy weather in this area for the next couple of days. Right now the storms are west of us. The say the will be here late today or in the morning. We need rain but I could do without the wind and hail.
 
Yup, Rkunsaw..looks like we're in for it also today and tomorrow. Just hope it's not a creek rising, thunderbooming frog strangler. Guess I'd better get the Gangsta's thunder shirts out.
 
Yesterday the temps dropped 20 F degrees from the 60 to the 40s, was drizzly and dismal all day...but I liked it, nice once in awhile. Today is a bit warmer, but lookin' the same.
 
On the trek home, last night, coming down out of the mountains, the road was wet meaning either it had rained or the fog was really thick and moving around. As I finally got to the coast, drizzle turned into showers and sudden down pour. Then, after a couple of miles, it stopped and was dry when I arrived home. Haven't checked the rain gauge. As my dad used to say, it was just enough to give the flowers a drink. Long way to go getting out of this drought.

Here in South Carolina, well right now it's cloudy, and cool. Supposed to reach the mid 70's today but i'm not sure it will, it's in the 50's right now. We didn't have much of a spring or summer this year it seemed. Spring was unusually chilly which really was bad for our garden, and summer never got that hot like it normally does. Last summer we reached 113* one day, but most of that week it was close to that, it was miserable! Makes me wonder what winter will bring.

So sorry to hear of that terrible weather in the U.K....saw it on the news, hold on to your hats everyone! And stay safe!

I appreciated the Carolina's summer so much more this year, Seabreezy, consecutive mid-90's are hot enough for me....how 'bout you? Last summer was ungodly and hotter than I can ever remember, with 100+ temps that went on forever. It was a much more pleasant this year and I miss it already, tho it's still low 70's here mid-day. Get ready tho, it's dropping quickly, as it usually does around Halloween. Monday's high is 57 and you know it's going to be very chilly in the morning/evening. With Mother Nature being so unpredictable, we may be in for a much colder winter. Last year my med-weight long sweater was all I needed.
 
How's the weather in the southern UK? I haven't been here long enough to remember our members from there. Knowing power is a huge issue, is everyone present and accounted for? I know it's a miserable time there.

I've just finished watching a Rugby League World Cup match in St Helens between Australia and Fiji and the weather was appalling.

Beautiful day here in SE Queensland ... no sign of rain ..... again. :(
 
Yesterday was very windy...I hung sheets out on the line, and they were literally three sheets to the wind. They were blowing so hard I was afraid they were going to end up in the creek. Today, we're looking for a high of 59 and hopefully less windy.
 
A windstorm sprung up here out of nowhere an hour ago and hit the house like a Mack truck!
Must have been a front or something, nothing on the radar to show storms around. It's a fairly howling Southerly gale, but dry, as usual!
 
in SC today, COLD! it was 38 when I got up at 6 this morning. gonna be about 62 for the high today. not to mention it's really windy, but it's sunny so i'm happy about that!
 
It is absolutely gorgeous today, unfortunately I know this because I am looking out a window here at work.

It did freeze last night, but it's beautiful out right now.
