NC Mountains - Sunny and warm...  And my bike is stuck in my garage...

Last weekend it was in the 90's and sunny, today it's in the 50's and cloudy. :-\


Portland, OR.

Last Saturday - 110. Today - 68.  I'm FREEZING!   :-\

Rode the bike yesterday in 60 deg weather, today it's snowing off and on......weather in Aspen really sucks!!

98 degrees and above for the past week with 75% humidity and above.

Not a dry heat.



Mmmmmm snow. Want want want.

Raining like a mo fo.  I had to wear my heated liner this morning.  So wrong.  :'(

feels like 97°

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS ISSUED TORNADO WATCH 499 IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EDT THIS AFTERNOON FOR MY COUNTY

should be 92 today

85 tomorrow

47% humidity  :'(

none here.

my panties are dry

dude... you wear panties?  [thumbsup]

It has been raining a lot here all spring - flooding everywhere in Iowa.  I think I am going to volunteer to sandbag this afternoon.

mitt

And if yes, are they fresh?

It's getting warm here, not East Coast hot, but 80's for today.
Cool inside, hot outside. Tonight, the heat starts to soak into my house. Thanks bricks!

a giant pizza oven

Hoooooootttttt!  I'm in the DC metro area and it's been jsut too damn hot.

hot

OH HEY LOOK!!!

it's ALMOST not FREEZING

you'd enjoy it today.

the same pic.... two seconds later

i'd rather go swimming...

Latest snowfall ever today, since they started keeping records in 1880 or so.
Also, coldest June day ever. 46 right now. Beautiful Spokane.

sissy.... ;D

106 and sunny...

call me in January    [evil]

I might come visit!

Hope you do....

I might even shovel.   ;D

 :P

still hot... no rain yet

Kansas- 4.5 inches of rain in the last couple days. All the rivers are cresting and it continues to rain

same here...

I guess I should water the lettuce.

M's watering now.

c'mon rain.... we're waiting...  [roll]

June 10th and it was in the 40's today here in the NW!!   [bang]

3 weeks from today I'll be loading the moving truck!! 

As soon as you leave, the weather's going to get nice. ;D











Can you move any sooner? [laugh]

That, and miraculously, no one in Washington will EVER get a flat from a nail...

Believe me Krustache..I'm leaving ASAP!! 

Get ready for record everything prices.  Besides gas at 4+/gallon, a lot of crop production is flooded out in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.  Corn was at record price already, and now there will be a surge in futures.

I sandbagged yesterday, and it seems overwhelming.  Every town on a medium to large river in Iowa is flooding at record levels this week.  Des Moines, Cedar Falls, Waterloo, Cedar Rapids, Iowa City ...  Mandatory evacuations in those towns.

More rain in the forecast for today and tomorrow  :-\

mitt

that's terrible mitt...
it's nice to read that you pitched in with the sandbagging efforts...
do you have evacuation orders?

i hope the rain stops for you soon!
stay dry!

Rode today, so of course it's raining (only lightly for now)

D*mn..I saw that on CNN!  Are there plans for building an ark in your area?!   :-[ :-[

Here in SA we have had some unseasonal winter rain, global warming is shit :o

Sinister's s/o mentioned the term "Junuary" to describe this months weather here in the NW.  She ain't joking!!  This blows!! 

We should.  The record crest for the cedar river was 20ft (flood stage is 12), that happened 100 years ago.  In 1993, it got to 19.3ft, and did a lot of damage.  Today and tomorrow, it is supposed to hit 24.5 ft, definitely uncharted territory.

Luckily I live a couple miles from the river, so I am fine, but a lot of the town will get wet.  And, we are just the latest emergency after the crest went through all the upriver towns.

 

mitt

128 degrees yesterday, 108 degrees in our "air conditioned" housing.

Funny you mention 1993.  One of the weather people here has said this pattern reminds him of 1993.  The midwest was hammered with severe weather all summer...and the PNW never really got a summer, except for a few short breaks.  :-\

I really hope he's wrong!

you couldn't ask for a finer day than today  8)

beautiful blue sky, sunshine and 75°

Des Moines River they are looking for it to crest above the level of the 1993 floods and above the height of the levees. The DMPD is moving out of their headquarters into a high school a couple of miles away.
The flood resevoir upstream (Saylorville) has already gone over it's emergency spillway and has an outflow of 42,000 cubic feet per second and an inflow above 60,000 cubic feet per second. The Raccoon River that flows into the DSM River in downtown DSM is backing up because the water level in the DSM is higher than the water coming in. Beaver Creek that flows into the DSM River north of DSM is actually flowing the opposite way it normally does for the same reason.

And the city manager is still saying the levees will hold...Glad I live on a hill.

Our company spent most of the last 2 days pulling all of our product out of the downtown bars and restaurants to prevent it from being destroyed.

crap  :-\
i hope your hill is tall enough :)

It is. My parents neighborhood is being asked to evacuate though. They are the last house on their street that shouldn't have to evacuate after that, it's all downhill to about 3 feet above the banks of the river.

Well, it is worse than anyone imagined.

I took the duc out this am and snapped some photos and added them to google maps for reference.

wow  :o

is your residence ok?
let us know if you need anything mitt  :-\

get paddle tires



102 in town today

+1 on that!

That is incredible!!!

Mid 80's here.  Hitting canyons this afternoon.

Cedar Rapids (Where Mitt lives): Approximately 100 blocks are flooded in downtown Cedar Rapids. The waters are nearing the tops of of the stop signs. Insane as it currently looks like Venice waterways and not an Iowa city of approximately 124,000 people.

Waterloo/Cedar Falls: Downtown flooded...

Iowa City: Levels are supposed to exceed the flooding of 1993. There are several areas of the University of Iowa that are or will be under water.

Des Moines: The city just asked for voluntary evacuations of an area called the 500 year flood plane. When it flooded in 1993, they were calling it a 100 year flood. They are predicting the waters will crest at the top of the levees in many areas of the city and the area near my parents house will be topped by about a foot of water which is going to greatly increase the chances of levee breaches.

I have been to pretty much all of those areas in Chad's pictures. It's amazing to see.

The State Hwy 17 bridge at the north end of Saylorville Lake is usually 60 to 70 feet above the surface of the water. The waters are currently about a foot below the bottom of the bridge.

Our house is fine, but the city is running out of water.

mitt

Ironically, While Mitt and others are drowning, we're under a fire watch here in southeastern VA.
There are two fires in N.E. North Carolina, one in the Great Dismal Swamp, that are sending clouds of smoke over our area.
Not that I would trade places, but we could really use some of that rain.

Nice.... :P...hot...low humidity.

Beautiful sunny day..of course, after all my guests are here and gone these past few weeks.   :-\

Oh well..I had a good time riding through downtown Seattle Hooligan-style.  That exhaust note sounds SO good in the building-lined streets!!   [evil]

Levee broke in my parents neighborhood on Saturday morning.

But out of the state, Cedar Rapids got it the worst. While our flood levels were higher than what we saw in 1993, this time our levees held and we didn't lose water and power for 12+ days.

It's hot and dry. 109 here in Glendale...

It is now over 111!

75* here and you would think it was 111* with the Lake Washington bikini-boobie-babe-fest over in Kirkland!!
 [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap]

 [moto] [moto] [moto]
It was a perfect day to ride!

Lucky bastage! I'm just north of Seattle, so I -might- have seen ya, if my bike was running. . . she was dead until about 8 PM  [bang] Know any good riding territory out here?

The desmo northwest site/riders will have a lot of info for you!   [thumbsup]

high 90s, low 100s here in north hollywood.  temps have cooled to about 71 as of now.

It's still 100 degrees right now, at 2345!

I find it a little hard to believe that it's 100 degrees in Glendale at 12am when I live only 15 minutes away and it's 71 here.

Glendale AZ

oooh, hahaha.  that makes more sense then.  i was just in scottsdale last year and it was about 97 degrees at about this time.  i dunno how you guys do it.

I won't for much longer, moving to CT!

you'll need to get some rain gear and a winter jacket  [cheeky]

9.2 square miles, 25,000 people displaced, a lot of local and national business ruined.  Look for food prices to soar, the grainbelt is hurting.

damn... the aerial photos are alarming... the hwy off ramps head into the river  :o

you ok mitt?

I have done some more google map work

I am fine, but the community isn't.

Damn, that sucks.  Reminds me of Reno in 1997 when the Truckee flooded downtown Reno/Sparks as well as Ferneley...but a little worse.  Hang in there!

I was there when that happened. Right around New Years...

95 degrees at 3am...

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             WOW...now that's a change. Work ?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   70,000 square acres under water.....with all that's going on w/ the economy I can't imagine how we are going to be living in the next 5-10 years. I know my net worth has dropped 15% in the last 10 months and I think this is just the 1st Act of an ugly 3 act event at least. I don't know what I would do if I lived in the flooded areas. So sad.I'm glad I'm not in my 20s . I don't think life as we know it is going to exist. Sorry to be a downer ...just telling it the way I see it.

Navy...

Wow..it's been pretty hot up here in the NW these past couple days..especially today!! 

No AC here and packing all weekend isn't much fun though. 

Actually, it's probably cooler outside with the breeze.

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              I saw on the news today that 10% of the Grain crop was estimated to be lost in Iowa alone .Although as bad as the flooding is in the Mid West , it's still not as bad as '93s flooding. Hard to believe. This has been the wettest June on record in Ohio and the 4th wettest month on record in Ohio. The records go back into the 1800s.

Southern New England
77°
75% humidity
and scattered thunderstorms

I thought I lived in Ohio not Seattle.  Wettest June on record Yesterday and Today are beautiful and then Thunderstorsm in the forcast for the next week.  Awesome.   :'(

What's the weather like?



I'll tell ya!



At 1600 EST it was 36 make the beast with two backsing degrees!!!!!!!!!

Bright blue sunny sky, 86 degrees  8).

70, but the wind has picked up - @ 20 mph.

and yes, it really is November.

Nothing like global warming to extend my riding season.

80 sumthin and clear skies.

BEAUTIFUL 70*+ day.

Yup, 80 something here in So-Cal. Mornings are still cold enough to give me the shivers if I don't throw on my overpants and evenings are just a bit on the cold side. Can't wait for the local Revit dealer to get their winter gloves in stock. I'm a bit fickle about temperature and was actually almost sweating when I went out to get lunch.  [roll]

It snowed today. Dammit  >:( >:(

It's supposed to be in the 20's tonight, but clear. In fact, in the next few days, it is supposed to rain, but those days the low is above freezing. I swear the temp here can't make up it's mind.
Forecasted high tomorrow, 39, but next Tuesday, it's supposed to get up to 48!

Welcome to New England.  ;D

You'll learn to appreciate any day it's not snowing. ;)

Snowed here last night into the early morning.

Uhhh, I have a little one that's almost 3 that's never seen snow before. I'm looking forward to snow!

28 degrees right now @ 6:30 central in Madison WI....and yes, it snowed yesterday   [drink]

You'll tire of it quickly.

She won't!

We're not trying to torture her.   ;D

went for a test ride today - in snow flurries!!!!

(thank god for heated grips! ;D)

friggin cold'  :-\

Beemer snob!  ;)

Well, it's a whopping 33 right now and was 24 when I got up for work....

You haven't seen anything yet...

70,  partly cloudy, about the same thru the weekend. Northern Cali.     [moto]

25^o F right now.

Supposed to get down to 18^o F tonight.

Glad I got the bike to the storage unit Monday when it was 45.

20 degrees now

thats down from a high of about 30 most of today

hate it...

how does it go?

live give, freeze, and die?

Fack... had to revive this thread...


-7F here with 35+ mph winds and heavy snow.

I wonder if morning will look like it did in '66:

(http://nsidc.org/snow/gallery/blizzard_1966b.jpg)

70 F, cloudy, 20% chance of rain in south Louisiana. Radar- no rain for 1 1/2 hrs ride from here. Going riding!

Cool here in Austin with some crazy wind blowing for the last 2 days!! 

We're on the top floor with a loose eavestrough above the deck!!

I don't think we slept more than 2 hours last night from the noise it's making! 

This is irritating as h*ll!!   [bang]

45F and cloudy.  Snow's all gone.  [thumbsup]

Above freezing today, no snow. Ice on the ground is melting...

Don't worry, it's just a tease.

Snowed last night. It's not supposed to get above freezing at all this week.  :'(

Seattle isn't supposed to have weather like this.  [cheeky]

It does that so it can run onto the freshly cleaned walk, then refreeze overnight, thus allowing you to crack a rib on it.

 DIARY OF A DEMENTED SNOW SHOVELER
DECEMBER 8
It started to snow. The first snow of the season and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window watching the huge soft flakes  drift down from heaven. It looked like a Grandma Moses print. So Romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love snow!
DECEMBER 9
We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic Sight! Can there be a lovelier place in the whole world? Moving here was the best idea I've ever had! Shoveled for the first time in years and felt like a Boy again. I did both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snowplow came along and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I got to shovel again. What a perfect life!
DECEMBER 12
The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a Disappointment! My neighbor tells me not to worry - we'll definitely have a white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll have so much Snow by the end of winter, that I'll never want to see snow again. I don't think that's possible. Bob is such A nice man, I'm glad he's our neighbor.
DECEMBER 14
Snow, lovely snow! 8 inches last night. The Temperature dropped to -20. The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath away, but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is the life! The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything again. I didn't realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling, but I'll certainly get back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff and puff so.
DECEMBER 15
20 inches  forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer. Bought snow tires for the wife's car and 2 extra shovels. Stocked the freezer. The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out. I think that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.
DECEMBER 16
Ice storm this morning. Fell on my ass on the ice in the driveway putting down salt. Hurt like hell. The Wife laughed for an hour, which I think was very cruel.
DECEMBER 17
Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go anywhere. Electricity was off for 5 hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay warm. Nothing to do but Stare at the wife and try not to irritate her. Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. God I hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my own living room.
DECEMBER 20
Electricity is back on, but had another 14 inches of the damn stuff last night. More shoveling! Took all day. The damn snowplow came by twice. Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're too busy playing hockey. I think they're lying. Called the only hardware store around to see about buying a snow blower and they're out. Might have another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob Says I have to shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's lying.
DECEMBER 22
Bob was right about a white Christmas because 13 more inches of the white shit  fell today, and it's so cold, it probably won't melt till August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out to shovel and then I had to piss. By the time I got undressed, pissed and dressed again. I was too tired to shovel. Tried to hire Bob who has a plough on his truck for the rest of the winter, but he says he's too busy. I think the asshole is lying.
DECEMBER 23
Only 2 inches of snow today. And it warmed up to 0. The wife wanted me to decorate the front of the house this morning. What is she, nuts?!! Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says she did but I think she's lying.
DECEMBER 24
6 inches - snow packed so hard by snowplow, I broke the shovel. Thought I was having a heart attack. If I ever catch the son of a pregnant dog who drives that snow plough, I'll drag him through the snow by his balls and beat him to death with my broken shovel. I know he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling and then he comes down the street at a 100 Miles an hour and throws snow all over where I've just been! Tonight the wife wanted me to sing Christmas carols with her and open our presents, but I was too busy watching for the damn snowplow.
DECEMBER 25
Merry make the beast with two backsing Christmas! 20 more inches of the damn slop tonight - snowed in the idea of shoveling makes my blood boil. God, I hate the snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a donation and I hit him over the head with my shovel. The wife says I have a bad attitude. I think she's a frickin' idiot. If I have to watch "It's A Wonderful Life" one more time, I'm going to stuff her into the microwave.
DECEMBER 26
Still snowed in. Why the hell did I ever move here? It was all HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.
DECEMBER 27
Temperature dropped to -30 and the pipes froze; plumber came after 14 hours of waiting for him, he only charged me $1,400 to replace all my pipes.
DECEMBER 28
Warmed up to above -20. Still snowed in. The pregnant dog is driving me crazy!!!
DECEMBER 29
10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or it could cave in. That's the silliest thing I ever heard. How dumb does he think I am?
DECEMBER 30
Roof caved in. I beat up the snow plough driver, and now he is suing me for a million dollars, not only for the beating I gave him, but also for trying to shove the broken snow shovel up his ass. The wife went home to her mother. Nine more inches predicted.
DECEMBER 31
I set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling.
JANUARY 8
Feel so good. I just love those little white pills they keep giving me. Why am I tied to the bed?

We are ;D it's been warming up to about 5 gets down to -10 to -15 at night.

Please excuse the following grammar.



FUUUUUCK that

Damn dude... it's warm there.

Today's High: -7F

Tomorrows forecasted high:  -17F

Oh, did i mention the steady 30+ mph winds all day today?   20+ mph tomorrow?

Wow, where is that?  I was inclined to pregnant dog about it not getting above about 40 degrees here today, and raining to top it off!  It was cold!

edit: nevermind, checked the profile.  Wow, that's @#$# cold.

done my time on the slope ( Pudhoe bay) (mostly at Alpine and Kuparuk) I've seen -55 with 30 mph winds. Too cold for me you can have it. 8)

It`s a cool 27 degrees C over here 8)

 [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [clap]

1/2 mile of this til clean roads...
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3184/3112344938_debfc6243a.jpg?v=0)
-3F (-20 wind chill)

But I will still take it over what The Reverend has.

Cold here today!  I rode the bike to work..exactly 300 yards and my knees froze. 

Of course, it's not East coast cold but low 30's is cold enough.  Plus, the windchill put it in the 20's. 

Freezing rain tonight.  Wahoo!! 

That's great.  ;D


Colder than a witch's t!t here in Iowa today and tomorrow.

mitt

18 Below this morning and warming up to 0 here today

 Trout Out

It @#$# snowed and hailed at my house today (right near San Francisco, CA).  It's not supposed to SNOW here!

Proof (taken nearby by a friend):

(http://jtoomim.org/album/photos/2008-12-16%20Snow%20on%20Grizzly%20Peak/Picture%20013.jpg)

d*mn global cooling! 

Why do you think they changed it from Global Warming to Climate Change.... now they can spin it for heavy snowfall too.

Great!   >:(


5-8 inches in the forecast for tonight with 30-40 mph winds tomorrow.

At least it's supposed to warm up to -3 for a high tomorrow!  :-\

That should make work fun!

That's weird, we're forecasted for the same thing except our wind is only about 20mph and we're down to low 20's..

It's only in the 60's here (http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u178/shemonster_01/coldsmilie.gif)

I just went outside to brush the 5-6" of snow off the car so I don't have to do it tomorrow when I go into work to shovel snow...

you mean so there is only 8 -12" on your windshield when you come out to warm up the car in the morning,.........right?
 [laugh]

we got a foot last night, with another 6" forecast for tomorrow.

think im gonna buy a plow.
(one more thing my big 4x4 is good for)

Nope, there was no more than a dusting on the car this morning...

at first i was all excited...then i realized what i was being excited about and i got sad again

what i was excited about is that the forecast high for tomorrow is 38

at least it's above freezing. :(

Nearly 80* here!  just got home..changing and riding to the gym!!   [thumbsup]

Close to 80 here too.  :)

Got all the way up to 34F today!! Wish I was working inside.

Anybody in the icestorm?
(This, of course, assumes you have power and an internet connection.)

NEarly 80* a couple days ago..then we got hit by the ice rain last night.  Didn't shut down  work today but there was a lot of ice going down the 3 flights of stairs!!   They even salted yesterday before 3pm!!  Supped to be back up to 70* by Friday.

Wow!  That is really pretty actually.  We are setting record hi temps here, over 90 the past couple of days.  I got sunburned through 50 spf sunblock out at the track yesterday.  :-\

So what's not to like about New England

6 inches of snow here in the NC mountains ~

M

So who else got hit with a foot of snow over night? 

*raises hand*

well over a foot here.... and still coming down  :-\

hmm...

School is still open and jobs are still requiring workers to come in, but no mail is being delivered.

Double standard. I want my mail.  >:(

i only had 6 inches of snow this morning. nothing is plowed.

if i hadn't lost my debit card in the snow at the pump i would have made it into work around 9:30.

instead i ran out of gas and had to walk the XR down the hill.

kath's car couldn't make it up the same hills 30 min later.

i got a call from my boss telling me i had to come in.

i'm not what many would call a happy camper.

sorry to hear that travis  :-\

can't believe you actually ride in 6 inches of snow  [bow_down]

i hate penndot.
i just went out for lunch, and the roads are plowed and salted now.

they couldn't make the beast with two backsing plow them when i needed to go somewhere, but they plow them in the middle of the day after everyone has gone to work.



i took my bitter pills today, can you tell?

<hides>

tiiiiniiiiiiiiii, come out to plaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy......

[/warriors]

 [laugh]

I thought rain, sleet or snow didn't stop the mail from going through.

UPDATE!!!!

we just got an e-mail


so in order to make up for us risking ourselves to get in here sliding through the snow we get to leave 30 whole min early! [thumbsup]

i'm so glad that they care about us and want to make sure we are safe.

How about extra time to get to work by allowing you to come in late....

i did get a little flak for getting in so late.

guess i better buckle down and be a good worker bee from now on. they were so generous for not firing me for being late today. forget the fact that the last week of this month i will be working until 10 each night and still be there at normal time.
the last 2 days i'll be lucky to get out before midnight. and we won't get much besides a "thanks" for that either.

Currently it's a sweltering 12 degrees. Last night I went out with the Dog and it was about 3 am . The temperature was 10 and the wind was blowing about 20 mph which made the wind chill -9. The Dog didn't mind ,  he jumped a Rabbit and disappeared further back in the woods. I decided he could do his thing with out my presense.

I split.    Dolph

ha, we have you beat!

15 degrees this morning with 10-15mph gusts. it's a beautiful sunny day! [puke]

its a warm 62 with a high today of 73 ;D

Here in South Central , Ohio we set an all time record high ( since 1886) .

It was ........79 degrees today .Totally awesome.

I couldn't ride because I have a Head cold and my eyes  were watering constantly and my nose won't stop running either.

Downside to 79 degrees, ....the weather is to go the other way to the tune of .....55 degrees ....in the next .....36 hours !

JM

HOT: +100 out here in AZ.

That translates to nice high 80's in the morning which is awesome, but very dry and hot in the evenings.

(http://gemsngifts.com/sitebuilder/images/GrandCanyon_0005-758x450.jpg)

Nice view, where is that taken from?

JM

Somewhere in northern AZ I think. I snatched it from a website, I don't have easy access to my own images from work. Awesome view though isn't it!!

wow that really blows.......

Wow man, that really sucks...

It'll be cold and most likely snowy for game three of the Rockies/Phillies game here in Denver tomorrow.

Arapahoe Basin will open for skiing tomorrow as well...their earliest opening ever.  Loveland Ski Area opened for bidness the other day.

Damn it!  I could be up there right now enjoying the snow!

Instead..I'm suffering with high 80's/low 90's this weekend in AZ.   :-\




 [cheeky]

It was a little chilly after work tonight/this morning....

Yep, a balmy -26 here also.  :P

More 70's today.

Overnight ow was 14. It's snowing off and on. My oldest daughter's flight is delayed going back to Phoenix. Good times...

Your decision to leave!  [cheeky]

-26 on my way to town this morning.  :P

tomorrow the high will be 53 with a low of 28 overnight tonight. it is 47 right now.


too cold for flip flops.  :-[

Military Orders...

A bit like here, only convert fahrenheit to celsius,
and not allowed to wear flip flops, full protective gear only.

Drove home from VT to DC last night - cold + snow + high winds = a tough trip.  CT was a nightmare.  Do they not plow their roads?  It was snowing lightly, but it didn't look like they had salted or plowed on I-84 and everyone was going like 35mph.  Spent some time sideways on that leg.   

That said, I went around NYC via the Tappanzee and still made it in just over 7 hours.

Ok, woke up this morning in the north of Sweden, to a mild -28 degree Celsius = -18.4 degree Fahrenheit and it´s getting colder.

Where you at, and whats your temperature reading?


Conversion page -->http://www.onlineconversion.com/temperature.htm (http://www.onlineconversion.com/temperature.htm)

Johannesburg, South Africa forecast for today min 13 degree C, max 29 degree C ;D


and only getting hotter [thumbsup]

Djibouti, Djibouti.

Balmy 88*F (32*C). I'm glad it's the chilly season.

maybe in the 70s? I've got the fan on right now, and it's after midnight

70 F in lovely downtown Baghdad, Iraq.

Madrid, Spain

0 degrees C - 32 degrees F

Snowing since early but it just won't settle

 :-\

Its been cold and tonight and tomorrow night a big freeze is forecast.  WTF, I didn't move from Alaska to Texas for this.  We put in a little orchard last fall which includes small citrus trees.  Tonight could be their last. :'( :'(

^^^ unlucky year for you. Just wait until you spend your first Christmas in shorts and it'll be worth the move.  [thumbsup]

wait 5 minutes, it'll change.  [thumbsup]

75 and nothin but sun here yesterday. 8)

It's so cold I saw a democrat with their own hands in their own pockets.

 [laugh]

It is frigid here too.

mitt

Getting pretty feed up, today a mild -30 degree Celsius = -22 degree Fahrenheit  :(

Northern Sweden.

[laugh]

Dude...isn't north Sweden like 2 blocks from the north pole? What do you expect?!  ;D

48F and drizzle this morning in Seattle. The ride into work wasn't too bad.  [thumbsup]

He's probably also getting something like 2 hours of daylight too.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKa68kWkP48 (http://)

What do weather people do?  Seriously.  They're inept.

Forecast for today - Winter Storm Warning: rain & mountain snow from 11am Tuesday to 11am Wednesday. 

Right now (12:25pm) there's hardly a cloud in the sky (note that it was raining a bit this morning but it actually cleared by about 10-11am.)  Sometime between 11am and noon the forecast was changed so now the storm is coming in about 5-6pm instead. 

Who says it never rains in California?

Two days in a row now!  [bang]

Partly cloudy and breezy, high of 72 today in Naples Florida. We're headed to Key West today for a week in the sun. Got out of Virginia in the nick of time.

15" of snow so far.

wind gusts up to 50mph.


pics will be posted later.

MN still sucks.

Will for the next two months for sure.

Maybe more.

More snow coming over the next three days.  :P

Must continue to resist temptation to go on homicidal rampage.....

It must amuse you that I got zero, nothing, nada.
I willed it all south of me.  ;D

a bit further south and east of us got nailed pretty hard.
we were forecast 12-18" they were forecasr 18-24"

Nor Cal, coast:

We're getting our annual freakishly early Spring fake out.
It's blindingly sunny and about 60F. Magnolias, poppies, daffodils, and fruit trees are blooming like mad, bikes are out everywhere.

Usually in a couple of weeks it gets really rainy again.
But today, it's heaven.  ;D

We received a lot of wet, heavy snow in the northern tip of VA on Friday & Saturday.  One neighbor said about 30 inches.  Someone else said 24 inches.

Still hot n humid here, had a wee bit of rain along my fave riding road on sunday, have a look at this.
http://www.weatherzone.com.au/station.jsp?lt=site&lc=40042&list=rb (http://www.weatherzone.com.au/station.jsp?lt=site&lc=40042&list=rb)

Yep 305mm!! that's 12 inches in 24 hours, no wonder I got wet.

Well, we had a Winter Storm Watch scheduled for late tonight through Thursday morning. Now it's a Winter Storm Warning tonight through Thursday morning.
Expected accumulation of 6-12" with near blizzard like conditions due to winds of 35-45mph...

^^^ Same here in Columbus.  This is on top of the 8-10 inches we got Friday/Saturday. 




SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No snow on the ground here. Hasn't snowed in 2 weeks, and even then, it was 1/2" that lasted 4 hours before melting...

We are waiting for an additional 10-20" to fall on top of the 2+ feet we already have.  Currently pre-heating the house for the inevitable loss of power.  Maybe after this winter the power company will start doing some long overdue line maintenance.......

It's gotten a bit chilly here. Mid 70s right now. Mosquitos are loving it. Rained about 1/2 an inch the past couple days (cumulative). Might have to dig out a long sleeve shirt if this keeps up. I did turn the A/C down a bit as my room is getting chilly.

Slowpoke where are you?

Here is Amish country PA, we have around 20 inches of snow from saturday and we are currently getting another 15-18. I did see some of the amish out in their buggies, enjoying the winter weather. I hope they didn't mind me sliding past them on my way home from work. I'm done with the cold. Bring on summertime!

Djibouti...

Gesundheit!  ;D

it's snowing here... supposed to get up to 12"
we'll see

Thanks to google map, I now know where that is [thumbsup]

Damn near a white out at my house right now......waiting to loose power again.

Comin down pretty good huh?! It's getting really windy now too. We haven't even hit the worst of it yet and there's already a couple inches on the ground. It started here around 630...

it's snowpocalypse part 2: snowmageddon here.

expecting 12-18 by the time it's all done. there's about 8 on the ground now since last night and it's still coming down pretty heavy. we are under a blizzard warning until midnight.
there is a nice heavy band coming up towards us. WOO HOO!

time to get to a bar!


*giggle*
you're getting up to 12"?
lucky girl  ;)

But can she take 18" like a champ as well as you can?  [cheeky]

simmer down boys  [roll]
they downgraded it to 5-8"  ;)

It's not the depth that counts, it's the ..   um    ...   density

I'm speechless

So that makes the plowing go faster?

77° with partly cloudy skies...gotta love Hawaii... ;D

driving rain all day
30 mph winds with gusts to 50
4 inches of water in the basement

toss up if the power will go out first or the furnace shorts out from the water.

at least its almost 50 out... [thumbsup]

Kinda breezy here too. ;)

Still sucks here.

-2F out right now, might see 20 if we're lucky this afternoon, snow everywhere.

 :P

lost power around 1am. woke up to a chilly house. power came on around 10am (impressive.)

furnace promptly died....gotta be something to do with how damp it got last night.

we lost power...twice last night, but very briefly...seconds.

Good luck on getting warm

79 degrees and sunny in the So CAL desert. It will soon be 115 in the shade in July.
If our power goes out in the summer we cook to death.   [evil] [evil]

looking forward to 40's next week, bike may emerge from hibernation in the next month or so

70's today.  Expecting more rain this weekend.  Yes, we need it but..why not during the week?!

Rio Salado is running like crazy right now!!!

Should be afer tonight too.  Getting some more rain tonight..along with thunder & lightning!   [thumbsup]

Glad we got the moving truck all packed up and ready to go this morning!! 

If you were to connect the dots of everywhere you've lived, would it make a design by now?

105* at 9:40pm

Yeah, but it's a dry heat.  :D

downpours beginning of the week....did not break the humidity....increased it

now 90's hot with near-liquid air....

I am waiting for Colonel Kurtz to wander out of the bushes in the back yard

Usually.  Riding on the highways to get home now though..it's hard to breath with all the heat coming off the surface.  It has to be at least 150* on the asphalt!

We've had some humidity in the air this past week. 

missing Tanya on the boards....

but I am hardly one to complain about disappearing acts

Its very cold here in Melbourne Australia at the moment...brrrr!! bring on summer l say [bow_down]..lol

I was make the beast with two backsing with you.  :D  Hot is hot.  8)

The forecast in the SO CAL desert for today is a balmy high of 113  [evil] and a frigid low of 88  [coffee]

make the beast with two backsing hot, make the beast with two backsing humid, make the beast with two backsing sucks.

Here in the beautiful U.P. it's a perfect 77ºF

Mid-70's, sunny, not humid :)

Really hot and humid here in Southern New Mexico / Western Texas this week.

Temps have been in the high 90s / low 100s with ungodly humidity levels.  They've had a higher than normal amount of rain lately, with storms all around the area currently.

Currently at the airport in El Paso on my way home (thankfully).

In the U.P.  Where you at?  My mom lives on Drummond Island.




BTW..115* today, I believe.  The hot air on the highway felt like it was burning my nostrils!   

100 and raining. >:(

Au Train township, (between Munising and Marquette) quite a ways from Drummond Island

100 without heat index.  need summer home FAST

It's 12:03 pm.  98 & climbing along the front range in CO.   :P

and again 8)

54 and gray.  In Seattle....

114 degrees - hotter-n- hell  [evil]  [drink]

103

..and I was just saying to the s/o we could move back up there if she wanted.

It is now 70 and  sunny  8)   [thumbsup]

 :'(

and what's it like now?!  BTW..the definition of "sunny" to a PNW'erner is not the same definition the rest of the world shares.   [cheeky]



BTW..I went for a short ride to Ducati Scottsdale..105* on one display..111* on another. 

IZ, Why does anyone live in AZ in the summer?  

Here in East TX it is 98 with 100% humdidity.  
AK, why did you move to Texas?

its make the beast with two backsing HOT

We took our daughter down to the Phoenix Airport yesterday and remembered once again one of my favorite Robert Earl Keen lines, about a show he played in Scottsdale a few years back: "I understand why lizards live in sunny Arizona. Why people do and call it home, I'll never understand."

Here in Prescott, we're about 100 miles and 3,000 feet in elevation above you there in Phoenix -- and a steady 15 degrees or more cooler. This morning was full of black clouds, lightning, blustery winds -- and barely a drop of rain. Monsoon season so far has been a complete bust -- lots of teasing & flirting, but no putting out with any of the precipitation we need.

In El Centro, CA, it's 112 degrees, but it will be makethebeastwithtwobacksing hot until mid September.

El Centro = AKA Hell Centro

Forecast for tomorrow in Las Vegas, NV is 105*.

Lucky me.

I get to stand in a parking lot most of the day.  [roll]

 ;D  It's good for your pasty white skin!


110* riding down Camelback Rd at 5pm


AK..98* and 100% humidity sounds like Michigan!   :P

Try Austin.  MUCH better weather in the TX Hill COuntry!!

Triangle..I have yet to get up to Prescott/Flagstaff since I moved back in PHX last year.  The bike's ready to go now though!!

Mid-80s and bright sun here in Seattle today. It's been in the mid 70's since Tuesday.  [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

Supposed to be mid-80's to mid-90's and sunny thru at least next Wednesday. Kinda hot, but  [beer] overall.  :)

Seattle summers are great overall. The winters...not so much. But they do beat all you guy's feet of snow reports.

95-100 here in middle america all week

Low 90s all week in S.C., Ohio.

May be mid 80s next week.

Dolph

Tied the record in Concord...93.

93 is winter where I come from

HOT! 

F'ING HOT!!

I know we had some bad weather here in PHX yesterday but tornados in N. AZ.   Yikes!!   

We did have one in Flagstaff when I was living there so it does happen.

a chilly 80 degrees in the So CAL desert  8)

It's been 60s at night, low 80s during the day, and sunny for a week and a half now. This is the annual tease we get, where we pretend we're in Socal  :D

68 when I woke up this morning. 77 now at lunch time. Fall in Florida is a pregnant dog.

Major storms for a few days but sunny 80s-90s now.

Fekken Awesome!

 :D



 [bacon]

going to be a beautiful day here in Portland Oregon. They are forecastingrain....... bacon and eggs at the beginning of the day, and then  BLT in all its glory at  luncheon. Bacon wrapped chicken for the homeward bound commute so all in all a wonderful day.
 63 for a high and sunshine. Awesome!!!! [thumbsup]

Bacon makes every day sunny and bright!  :D



 [bacon]

COLD!!  Snow this past weekend in the mtns surrounding the valley and even in North Scottsdale!

Just put plastic over the sliding glass door.  It had to be about 10* cooler on this floor.  That thing is a huge waste for heating and cooling this place!   Toasty warm in here now.  [thumbsup]

32'F on the dash of my 848 tonight.  Engine temp read about 140'F...

Another part of the dash read 131 at one point.   [evil]

 [thumbsup]

I figured I'd resurrect this since we're having another weird winter in the great white north.

Low 30's...sleet...freezing rain...high winds.

No school.

...and it started like winter. :-\

Yeah, it's been 30s to 40 and rain here and there for about a week. Like mid-March weather. Weird.

Winter will return tonight, it's cooling off and they're saying 3-8" of snow.  :P

We get a January thaw here every year.

This year it's been almost the whole month of warmer than normal with plenty of rain/ice.

Glad I didn't buy that sled. :P

Glad I don't have one anymore, although I miss it.

Winters in southern MN have been sparse for several years...

Well, it is our " summer ", dry season, but, most days, we are having cloudy overcast days and hotter than usual temps, been seeing high 30s to low 40s, this in Celcius . . . Also, humidity for this time of year has been relatively high at an avg of about 60%~70% . . .

Gonna try to purchase a " sweat proof " SPF lotion for my rides . . .

I think '08 was the last 'good' one we had.

Keep in mind I made a vow in 1973 or 4 to never own a sled.

T is trying to get me to cave on what has worked for a long time. :P

a couple inches of white almost solid concrete fell from the sky here.
Dense enough to almost stand on.

I don't think I've ever seen sleet lying on the ground blown by the wind before.

it would take a tornado to move this super dense stuff here

Raining now...that'll keep the dust down. ;D

Well, if the wife unit is all for it, you can hardly refuse a new toy.  ;)

They're a lot like boats.

Another place to watch money disappear. ;D

That they are....probably worse, because boats don't depend on certain weather events occurring before you're even able to use them.

Not exactly true...the ice has to melt. ;D

 [laugh]

Around here the lakes hardly freeze anymore.

Last year they had to move the pond hockey tourney from Winnipesaukee to a smaller lake because the big lake wasn't frozen...quite enough.

Bah, open water just makes it more challenging.

Pussies.  ;D

One word...

actuary. [thumbsup]

I keep meaning to take a picture of the frozen lake with snow on it. It just looks like a vast field of snow.

It sunny today, therefore it will be in the low teens again tonight.

Meanwhile I'm planning some camping trips.

60 in NW PA right now.  I didn't even wear a coat today.

It was in the mid 50's earlier here. Cooling down now.

There are these weird white flakes floating around in the air.

It has been spring here for the last couple of weeks.

This will change tonight through Saturday morning, forecasts ranging from 3-12" of snow and blizzard conditions. Back to winter. :P

Supposed to be 70° today.

I'm not even sure what to think.

The big megastorm turned out to be about a half inch at best. Woohoo!

Was 72.

Now it's snowing one day later.

It's all messed up.

In the high 70's-80's year round at 3,500' in Boquete Panama.

This was Saturday. 8)

It's a lot warmer today. 8) 8) ;D

it's chilly here. only 68.

unless I get in the sun. then I need shorts.

Back to 18°F

oh lucky, you have it nicer out  [laugh]

supposed to be a foot plus of snow here on Tuesday...yay  >:(

Only a couple inches here.

For a change.

3⁰...-6 with the wind chill.

It's only March

They're saying 5-8" of snow starting at noon here....hope they're wrong again.  :P

Sunny and 26 C in Melbourne, 32  and 33 for the next few days.
Ole, ole, ole ole.....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eurI5JoCPBc

They weren't wrong.  :P :P :P

8-12 on the agenda for the next two days.

here's the quote for here taken out of the blizzard warning

* Accumulations... snow accumulations of 14 to 20 inches in valley
  locations and up around 2 feet at higher elevations.

so yay 2ft  :P, enough to be annoying

Hanging around 80-95 of yours for weeks now irrespective of sunny dry days, rain and high humidity or dry baking heat depending on what Melb serves up to us. The best riding weather is yet to come over the next two months into our Autumn.

just measured 13 inches out there so far and still coming down really hard

Weather so bad, it may not be appropriate for work or youngins...

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B8P3j_XIcAAG1s-.jpg

seems to be winding down now, total is around 30-ish inches

(http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa91/chiflado/C4ED2536-17A1-4BAE-B7D6-B79A600A1445.jpg) (http://s201.photobucket.com/user/chiflado/media/C4ED2536-17A1-4BAE-B7D6-B79A600A1445.jpg.html)

Good thing it got dark.

Maybe it's not snowing. ;D

if you can't see it, it doesn't exist

85f here today.  8)

20 inches of rain in the new year. I know this is Seattle, but it is even excessive for us! We should be at about 12 or 13 by the end of the month. 

I could use some sun.

Windy

Yeah Los Angeles is at 12.5 for the year so far (only Jan and Feb numbers) compared to an average of about 8.

It rained yesterday and is forecasted to rain all day today as well.

Sunny and mid 70's through Thursday.  

6" of snow in the forecast for Friday   [thumbsup]

Sunny and mid 60's on Saturday.

Inch of snow...my ass. [bang]

I forgot what 70° feels like. So nice.

74 and sunny!!!

1752h and still 34°C/93°F

PTY is still more comfortable at those temps than Santiago or David. I lived in Santiago for 6 months and really hated it. Take a cold shower, towel off and be dripping sweat. David, lo mismo.

Spring in the NC mountains...

It was in the teens a couple mornings ago, today it was in the high 70s,,,  It's "keep a heavy coat and a t-shirt" in the truck season.

JM

It's April.

Enough already.

it's fine here, just a bit moist  ;D

NSFW-language...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej5zViu0xb0

We ended up with about 10-11" of heavy wet snow...so wet it's actually blue.

Really glad the snow blower decided to shit the sheets in the last storm.  [roll]

Been raining...raining hard right now...flood watches till tomorrow night...

'bout time we got rid of this make the beast with two backsing snow. ;D

86F....an hour of heavy rain at 3pm....typical Invierno weather (wet season, winter) here in Boquete Panama. Verano (dry season, summer) no mas. Humidity is up a bit in the coffee highlands. 72f at 7:47pm now.

I was at the track yesterday, perched in my tree house. It was 50 degrees...raining sideways with 30 mph gusts. I was wearing my woolies...and shivering. I wasn't any colder at 0 with the same wind and no rain.

Supposed to be 91 on Thursday.

I'll be back to whine about the heat. ;D

[laugh]

 ;D
I wouldn't have lived through that. [laugh]


Gonna be 70 today, but the mornings are crisp. Autumn is hanging on. This winter we should get to 30 at times out here. Local wet lands drop the temps lower than in town.

it was 89 here today.

A little warmer tomorrow.

Don't like the weather?...just wait. It will change.

Sure you dont live in Melbourne? Same five seasons in a day thing. I have a jacket and hat on the back seat. T shirt and fleecy top in the work bag, sunglasses and cap. (Thermal gloves in the glove box).

55F and raining like a cow pissing on a Missouri flat rock.

We had that yesterday.

I see it's made its way over to you.

has been cloudy all day . ..  NO sunshine, NO breeze . . .

My boiler is running.  >:(

Just shut the gas off to the heaters.

No heaters here Dave. I have 1 unit that heats the water in the floor, and the domestic water.

If I wanted to be cold I'd turn it off.

I didn't build this place to be cold.

Thanks guys. Your snow snuck over here. I guess the snow bunnies are happy.

wouldnt mind having some here

We're from the gubmint...we're here to help. ;D

 ;D

After 4 days of heat, it cooled down today and there was thunder and rain!

A pretty decent rain over night. Watering the lawn today will not be necessary.

The cow is back.

...and left again.

flashy things going on...with sound effects.

Yea? You throwing a Rave at the Casa?

Sudden heavy downpour. Further watering the grass.

Went from rainy and cold to...

hot. 90's yesterday and today.

main reason I was like nope, working from home today because I'd otherwise be in the office which gets quite uncomfortable when it is hot out. My little home setup is mostly underground so it stays comfy

Hot, humid, and terrifying thunderstorms periodically. As in the last couple of days.  :P

I ain't skeered, I'll sit outside with a length of pipe and wait to receive my superpowers

62 inches of rain in May in boquete, Panama. It really only rains in the late afternoon for 30 minutes or two hours but when it does, you haven't seen rain and lightening until you've been here. Last year we had 2' feet of water raging across the highway in front of my house. I wanted rum and made the decision to ford it....damn near was swept away.....but rum was my priority and I fought for it.   

To familiar.

I had standing water in my shop. Came up through the cracks in the floor.

It's Hot.  Damn Hot.  Hot like an oven.

Paradise... :-*

Stopped watching after it passed 120 today....

Even though car said 100, official was 97.

Hot, but no red guys with tails & pitchforks dancing around like in Trouble's  neighborhood!   ;D

26 of yours here this morning. Sunny though 8)

Been like this for the better part of 5 weeks.

(http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa91/chiflado/DCD9F135-8A04-4FFD-978B-1AD5C208B4D0.png) (http://s201.photobucket.com/user/chiflado/media/DCD9F135-8A04-4FFD-978B-1AD5C208B4D0.png.html)

Thunder boomers

I thought I'd resurrect this thread because this post isn't about snow.

Sundays' forecast...

Sunday  Sunny, with a high near 25. Wind chill values as low as -6. Northwest wind around 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.

It's March FFS. Let it go Mom.

You forgot the best part of this weekends weather................   3 degrees F Saturday morning.   ;D

I'm not going to be outside, shooting, Saturday morning.

It's not like it will be that cold. We've been shooting all winter...

It's March FFS. ;D

no worries, I'm sure the pendulum will swing directly to 90 soon enough

I'm hoping.

I've got track days to do.

Pouring, and we need the water. ;D

Another hot day here.

Supposed to get rain again tomorrow.  Bring it on!!!  I want it to rain so much (if I can’t have snow) that animals start lining up at my door in pairs & 7’s!

63* and raining in Plano.

It was cold.  :P

The forecasted storm finally rolled in.  Thunder too!   First time to hear that in easily 6 months.   [thumbsup]

A balmy 12 degrees.

Looks like the storm that was forecast for tomorrow is going out to sea. [thumbsup]

It's nice to catch a break [thumbsup]

Maybe March will go out like a lamb. :P

Not here...  Severe storms, hail, heavy rain turning over to snow in the next 24-48 hours... 

JM

Tornado sirens are screaming and it’s raining in 6 directions!

http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2018/03/what_we_know_today_about_storm.html

They're saying 5-10" of snow here tonight into tomorrow.

 :P :P :P

Location...location...location. ;D

50% chance of snow showers tomorrow night. [thumbsup]

First rain of the year . . . OUR summer is officially over

51 and sunny today.

Rain and snow tonight. [roll]

It's a start.

Second Winter in NH? 

Nope...just a typical early Spring day.

Looks like that's the pattern for the upcoming week.

We're gonna get 5-12" of snow tonight into tomorrow. Or so they say, will probably be an inch.

 :P :P :P

Winter, please go away....  >:(

Yeah, snowed here last night. Only an inch or two but I still hate it all.

April showers...

I hate rain, but I have to say..... I was happy when the snow last night changed to rain before it could accumulate.  :P

Don't hate...

no rain, they'll call this Colorado, or California. :P

Box it up and ship it here.  I’ll gladly take all of it!

just let me know and I'll ship some overstock rain . . .

You can come to MN and take all the snow you want.  >:(

More coming this weekend by the sound of it, spring was here last week but it's over.  :P

Snow here today and coming Friday.

I have had enough!

not terrible around ~6,000 feet

(https://i0.wp.com/twoslow.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/IMG_6131.jpg)

Ground is now wet.  A larger percentage of falling water is in white crystal form.

By no means "Winter Storm".

Snowing

Here too :P

We got a couple...maybe 3 inches.

It shouldn't last long.

Same here. Ready for nice weather

I'm tired of seeing white.

The field was bare...except the very back by the trees. Now it's all white again.

I feel your pain brother painter.

I need to see some green leaves sprouting soon.

Soon... ;)

86. Summer is hanging on into Autumn here.

And yet another blast of snow on January 99th.....

 :P :P :P

Snow squalls this morning.

Won't accumulate...just another flip off from Mom.

Been that way here too. I think we got the 200" we needed to beat the records.

We didn't get that much this year.

Just been a really strange winter.

November/December was brutally cold...January thaw lasted a month...been mud season since the middle of February...and it's still snowing on April 20th.

WTF?

I got nothing.

I'm not a weather scientist. I only know how to cut metal.

...and if you don't like it...just wait.

It'll get worse. ;D

;D

Truth

Sooo...

this is make the beast with two backsed up.

There are still piles of snow here and there...

and I just saw a mosquito. [bang]

That's so wrong.

Right?

74F w/ 12% humidity.

Mosquito inside the house or outside?  I hope they are not increasing their temperature range.

Outside.

Oh my.

It snowed two weeks ago...

and it said 89 degrees on the truck display driving home from the track FFS. ???

Summer is here?

It's gonna get down to a daylight 50 later this week, so the warmth must be travelling up your way. Enjoy.
On goes the oil cooler cover.

Currently 78.  Warmth IS here. 8)

91 here right now.

Was 95 at the track today.

This has been my recent project...

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/rBLRLRVldcL2VNKoE-SdkZGg8OqVsQVlo04eH0v0kVAWb0coAbCLuAyLYxwTMLA2i9aKNGFLu8jKQsMndvvJ0jwtqlMLRvUV-owaUJl733C3_Z61x6JlJ_G5iT1SsvzS7_ocwUzDug=w2400)

Almost done.

Nice. Hot here too.

HLAMF

Sooo...

I was just thinking...scary...I know.

It was close to 100 yesterday. Tonight it will be around 50. It's not unheard of for it to be -20 here in the winter.

That's a 120 degree spread. Welcome to NH. :P

What's the spread where you live?

Very rarely gets much below 0 here, though I do remember a stretch of -20's.  105 is about the top of the scale.

We did have this earlier this year...

https://denver.cbslocal.com/2018/02/20/big-temp-swing-in-denver/

The only city they really keep data for that's easy to find is Concord...record low of -37. Record high of 102.

We typically see -20, and highs in the upper 90's.

This 50 degree swing tonight is welcome. I might have to wear a sweatshirt in the morning. ;D

Record H-L in Alabama

110F / -27F

I wouldn't mind some lows in the 50's.

On temp swings, you have Mt. Washington out there.  Factor in wind chill, isn't @ 0° K on top on the winter?  ;)

Mount Washington is a different world.

https://www.mountwashington.org/experience-the-weather/mount-washington-weather-archives/normals-means-and-extremes.aspx

The weather last night and this morning was AWESOME!!!!! Cooled down into the 50's, and sunny and pleasant this AM.

WAY better than the prior week of 90's with 75% humidity!

Today is a sad day.

Start of the heating season. :'(

Live, freeze, die.

One day closer to spring.  ;D

I tried to get T to suck it up... :P

My landlord will not turn on the heat before October 15 and the outside temperature is less than 55.  Bastid!  Wait, I'm the landlord :P

Major flooding here in Lancaster PA a few times this summer. It is still raining and humid with highs in the 70's. Seems like it's been raining since the middle of July. We had a storm park over us a few weeks ago that dumped 8.5" of rain in three hours. Everything is just damp. I'm ready to dry out.

We've been in the 30's and 40's in the morning for a week or more. The slab gets a might chilly.

No where near that cold here.  The landlord also caves and turns on the heat early anyway.

Was that remnants of the hurricane?

That was a few weeks before. We didn’t get much from Florence.

8.5” in three hours was insane. I’ve never seen water run uphill until that day.

Getting pounded right now! ⛈ 🌪

About 12 or so years ago we had 5 inches in an hour. We were stranded because the two brooks that pretty much border our property were both over the road. Several roads washed out. Anymore, and my barn might have been involved. As it was the water was just a couple of feet from it.

It was intense.

Holy crap.

Still in the 50's to 70 here.

70 is less and less. I think 60 is the high on Saturday. The heat will be on soon.

We've been having a ton of rain down here.  Just a little west of me, they got 11" in 36 hours over the weekend.

Had torrential rains this morning.  Then sun, then more pounding rain, then sun again.

Thankfully, it has cooled off.  Low 60s tonight.

We used to play a game called "how long can we go without turning the heat on?"

It's a bad game.   [thumbsdown]  We don't play it anymore. 

Will it ever stop raining? [bang]

I guess it's a good thing for people with dug wells. We won't be going into the winter with ground that's dry.

It's pouring here as well.

Yesterday was my Friday off.

Nothing but rain all day.

50% chance of it tomorrow. 80% for Monday & Tuesday.

 [bang] [bang]

Sunny and 70 today...  20's tonight with snow...  Measurable snow tomorrow...  Sun comes out again Monday and mid 40's...  Back into the 60's by the end of the week. 8)

Raining.

Not raining but cloudy

No rain. No clouds.  Will be cold tonight.  The sun will come out again tomorrow.

Paradise.

More rain.

Same here.

Got soaked today at work.

Rain.  Again.

At least a 50% chance for more next three days.

Solid rain here today.   :'(

Temps are staying low won't be long before measurable accumulation.

I'm guessing you're not referring to rain. ;)

You are a wise man.

This is the time of year I hate. All the fun stuff ends and the snow removal begins.

Once I'm in the thick of winter I'm mostly ok. This is like when I'm riding and it starts raining. I hate the transition from dry to wet. Either dry or wet is ok, but the in between (like fall) is the worst.

I still need to cut my grass one last time, drain the mower, fill the snow blower and make sure it runs and winterize three bikes.

:P

I'm right there with you on the grass cutting, servicing the snowblower, needs belts, and winterizing the bikes.

The rest...I'm OK with just needing a hat instead of three layers. Fall is great. Winter sucks.

I better hurry up with getting the grass cut, and the snow blower serviced...

there's snow on my truck this morning. :o

What the?!?  That was fast.

37° here now. That's the first time in the 30's so far.

I don't think we've had Indian summer yet.

The weather is weird.

This is what the weather looks like for the coming days, I am prepared, I think that humidity is a little too low for my taste

Turned off the gas heater and opened up the ducted cooling vents.

Put all the bikes away yesterday. Since it wasn't raining I took two of them out for a 30 mile run. 43° is cold but I'm glad I got out one more time.

Looking like flurries soon.

It's winter. 3 inches on the ground, and supposed to spit a mix all day.

I should get the snow blower out of the shed. :P

I, also, neglected to wake up the snow blower.

I just winterized the pressure washer on Sunday. ;D

Now it's raining...yay. [bang] [laugh]

Clear here now.  They say snow later.

B got the snow blower ready to go Saturday.

12" or so in Erie last weekend. 35 miles south where I live- dust.

Snow day.

Freezing rain on top of about 3".

We were supposed to get maybe an inch, then rain.  Three to four hit the ground before changing over.

Shit.

I should have woken up the snowblower already.

I did mine yesterday.

I was planning on replacing belts before this winter...I bought them last year.

Never got a round tuit. :-\

A balmy 3 degrees. [roll]

A sunny and tropical 5 degrees over at the coast...  :P

23° here.

A veritable heatwave.

2 inches of snow overnight, and now its raining sideways.. :P

Aaaaannd now it's 60°

Snowed last night...

raining cats and dogs today.

8" of snow over the weekend.

Winter is officially here.  :P :P :P

50 and sunny all day... ???
Back to low 30's for the rest of the week :P

105 today on the outskirts of Melbourne. Cold meats and salad this Christmas I think.
Northeastern state of Queensland has much of the coastal forest on fire with over 130 forest fires.
I note Calfornians now have to endure floods and mudslides after the catastrophic fires.

It's been between 40 and 55 these past couple weeks. This is a full 180° from last December when we had like 6' fall over a few days.

I think this December's total was like 12" or something.

If I had heated gear I could be riding quite a bit right now.

113 expected at my place tomorrow. Early morning ride I think.

113?  Yikes!

107.6 expected at my place.

109.4 expected at the range where I’ll be sighting in my new Howa .223!

Should be fun. Enjoy the early morning ride Bro.
I got the clutch and brake reservoirs changed over on Sunday. Haven’t ridden it yet, but will get out for a spin soon enough!

40s coming this weekend, Sunday might hit almost 50. Gotta love that in MN in January.  [thumbsup]

I think I'm gonna do some outdoor shooting.  8)

Woke up to a hard snow..... Then sunny and 40 by lunchtime???

Total of 4" on the ground, and it's melting fast.

Clear & sunny 38* in Texas.  We've had low 30s and rain/wintry mix the last two days.

27° and sunny now,  but will be knocking on 60° today.

Still no snow here. I'm completely ok with that.

Started out at 11 below this morning...up to 17 as I post this. Supposed to get to the low 20's. [clap]

Stared out in the low 20’s.  Up to 33 now...  will hit mid 40’s.

Sunny day. 8)

At those temps it don't matter, BRRRRRRRRRR

Cool change down to 97.

So far I've not had to put fuel in the snowblower and start it for the first time this season.

Looks like tomorrow will probably break that streak. 

Still snowing.

Radar shows it's not going anywhere soon.

Still snowing here too.

Don't think it will stop anytime soon.

No snow here, but, weird days . . . We're supposed to be in dry season or summer as we call it, but, every day after 1200h, it gets real cloudy and a cool breeze comes with . . . Just too weird

Got a foot or so here. Just got back inside after clearing out.

There's fuel in the blower now.

4°

Beardcicles are a thing.

About the same here.

Finished cleaning up just before dark.

I'll probably have to go back out after the wind blows the shit around.

Wind is good for that.

106 yesterday and 113 today at my place. Ten years ago it hit 122 but it was bone dry then and I felt quite ok, but this summer its very humid and Im feeling it.

Sub-zero here, and will be for days.

 :P :P :P

Its a cold I cant fathom.
A cool change brought 90 here today and 79 tomorrow will feel cold after the recent heat wave.

You keep that right there. ;)

Snow....Lots of snow.

Mercury just hit 60.

Just another day in Paradise. 8)

we had a week of rain and cold, a week of dry, sunny, and cold, and now another week of rain and cold.

friday/saturday were super windy, so yesterday afternoon I was leaving and pulling out into the main street, the storm drain on the main street was backed up, there was water across the entire street, 4 lanes, a foot deep at the center, ~2 feet where the storm drain is.  No city crew or anything on site, it was hard to see the water and people were hitting the water at 40-45mph.

when i returned it was only getting worse, so me and a neighbor went down with shovels and rakes to see what was up.

because of the wind, the debris grate on the drain was completely covered with leaves and hardly any water was getting down.  tools weren't helping so we kneeled down in 2 feet of water and started scooping leaves and trash off the grill to get the water moving.  well we were just scooping the leaves back into the water where they floated right back to the drain.  it was slow moving at first but then suddenly sploosh the water started get in one or two places, fast enough it was bubbling up in a big air column.  once the water started moving we were able to scoop the leaves further away so the storm drain could catch up. 

All this time people were driving by at 40mph with us kneeling down, completely oblivious to the foot of water across the road, splashing water at us, 8-10 feet high.  crazy stuff, but the water finally started flowing.  once it got down all the way then we found a bunch of asphalt chunks and big new potholes in the road.  we cleared those out to the sidewalk also, to keep my neighbors from getting damage.

Another less modern storm drain across the street was still backed up.  Ran across and started the same process, but this time I found a license plate and a bunch of plastic splash guards and wheel well liners - someone must've gotten in a wreck earlier and the rain washed all that shit right to the storm drain blocking it completely.

good news - cool story to tell and a free front license plate.
bad news - people who drive through my town are frigging idiots.

Snowing here in Seattle!

Warmer, drier and sunnier here than at Trouble’s house. ;D

55 and sunny. ;D

Is it May already?!!!

I should go turn on the news to see if it really still snowing.  (Looking out the window may not give accurate intel)

Windy.

Shingles flying off all over the place.  Thankfully not our roof.

Snow later.

Still have power, many don't.

Very windy down this way as well. Power has been blinking on and off all day.

Brrr! Stay warm - it's cold & icy here, but nice and calm.

Power still on here but looks like a lot of folks in pa-oh-mi are in the dark

Headed here today.

I was promised snow this morning.

There is no snow falling here.

Couple tornadoes 🌪 tore through here earlier today, killing 14.

22 dead as of now. 23 confirmed today.

Winds were recorded at 170mph. The folks in that county had an 8-9min warning before it touched down. It was 1 mile wide and stayed on the ground for 24 miles.


Update:

Some call it global warming, some call it climate shift, I call it make the beast with two backsed up.

Tornadoes in 'Bama , and -9 F in NH...in March.

make the beast with two backsed up.

Expecting up to a foot of snow again here this weekend. Wet, heavy stuff too. I'm starting to wonder about roof snow loads....

It's been a record winter for the crap in MN, literally. The amount we got in February was the most we've ever seen. I've had enough.

 :P :P :P

Strange winter here.

Still cold but snow fall this year has been way down. I had one time I had to run the blower. Beyond that I've not even bothered to shovel. I almost wish every winter was like this.

I've been running my snowblower every week both at the house, and the range.

It's also been cold and windy which never makes a snowblower fun.

I know what you mean.

Last time I ran the blower it was like 5° and the snow was dry and powdery which meant that with the wind going it all stuck to my face and made icicles in my beard

Aaaaand after a blizzard on Saturday, we're looking at low 40s and rain for a good chunk of the week.

I have a bad feeling about some serious flooding this spring.....

Nothing to do with the present weather, but this is footage of direct hit. 🌪 He filmed this from the 2nd floor of his house, he thought it was gonna miss him. Wife was downstairs and didn’t survive. I’ll take hurricanes any day. This is the season for them here.

https://youtu.be/Rk5Y2biSpog

“A rapidly intensifying storm will send temperatures plummeting by more than 40°F across the western and Central Plains on Wednesday, spawning an April blizzard that could dump more than 2 feet of snow in some areas.”

Yep, we're looking at a wide range of possibilities for snow accumulation in southern MN, anywhere from 4" to 24".

It's coming down hard now and the grass is covered, so I think it's gonna be bad.....  :P

It’s called “Spring”. ;D

Fall here. Cold nights, crisp mornings and sunny afternoons. Pleasant riding weather but choice of riding gear over a whole day is difficult. Melbourne is very nice this time of the year.

Sun is shining pretty bright for “April Snowpocolyse, part 2.” :-\

Further proof that there are far too many Californians living here.

We got some severe weather coming in tonight. I hate it when they show up at night. 🌪 🌪

“Weather experts continued to urge Alabamians to have not one but several ways to get severe weather alerts -- especially overnight.”

Yeah, tornados in our area yesterday evening.

We were on the way back from Ohio in the Mustang and ended up pulling off the hwy under a bridge for ten minutes to let it get ahead of us. We were down to 25mph and 50 foot visibility. I'm not sure I've ever seen that much rain.

We lucked out and got home safe to a home that was untouched. Not so far north that had 2" hail wrecking cars and houses.

Cold and blizzard conditions which netted nearly a foot of snow one week ago.

Today it's going to be pushing 60 and pouring rain.

Gotta love spring in MN.  :P

Was 30 degrees when I left for work this morning. NOAA said 50 max so I wore longies.

It was 60+...lyin' sacks of shit. :P

Most of the snow is gone at least.

I really hope it doesn't go from winter to August this year.

58 and sunny today. Good working weather!
 [thumbsup]

50% chance of tornadoes and likely "larger than baseball" sized hail in the forecast here.

Of course, that was supposed to start at 4PM.

Thunder is booming nearby now.

Already 80 here.   :P

If it gets above 74 inside the ac is going on.

Windy

Raining...

hard.

Sunny and 76!

66 and wet.

 :'(  60 and mist today :(

Any of our gang in Ohio impacted by the tornadoes last evening?

Not in Ohio or affected by the tornado (thankfully) but we had one touch down locally here in Lancaster, PA

That’s 15 in PA this year so far.

15?!?!

https://youtu.be/mVxXZhcpRfI

Been cold Down Under.
First AFL game in history was played whilst snowing for a spell last night in Canberra!

Chilly one today.

-3⁰ F...wind chills -17⁰ F

Supposed to warm up to 15, but with 20 mph winds with higher gusts

103 yesterday, 108 tomorrow. We're inland and east of the city. My hometown 250 miles NW of Melbourne gets 118 tomorrow.

Maybe 90 with about 100% chance of rain . . .

Hit 113

110-115 around my place and where I ride. We got out early for a breaky ride and home by the time it hit 90, so no worries. Code Red for fire danger with howling winds showing up this afternoon.

 [laugh]

Snow was just about gone yesterday.

Mother nature decided she didn't like that and dumped about 6-7" on us.

It's a goddamned winter make the beast with two backsing wonderland outside. [bang] [laugh]

May 9th...Welcome to NH. ;D

Looks ready for planting :P

I planted lettuce, spinach, and peas 10 days -2 weeks ago.

Nothing has come up. The seed was pretty old, but was kept in good conditions. Probably didn't help that a deer walked through most of it. :P

Soooo...

snow on May 9...

Tornado watch this evening.

WTF is going on?

Don’t forget the black flies are out all of a sudden.   ;D    :(

I saw them a week ago, but they weren't biting, then it snowed.

This must be their way of ensuring survival. ;D

Big temperature drop and high winds...not good signs in Tornado Alley!

lower temps, hi 70s, humid and slight breeze, might rain later on

Soooo...

it did snow May 9th, so it stands to reason it should be 80 degrees on May 21st...

right? [roll]

Just like Melbourne, four seasons in one day.

As much as 15⁰ warmer in New Hampton than the Bronx.

Cooling down a bit...91. [bang]

Perfect summer's day  :)

It's make the beast with two backsing May...

Perfect summer's day.  In May  ;D

 >:( :-*

Phoenix had it's first 110 degree day of the year yesterday (there's a reason I'm not in Phoenix) and northern AZ started in on the dog days of summer a little bit early. The month of June up here is generally marked by widespread whining about the weather, which is painfully hot and humid. You know, mid 80s and 20% humidity.

Yes, it's embarrassing to hear people complain about it, and no,  I'm not an exception.

Around the beginning of July, in a normal year, we'll get a strong shift toward the Southwest Monsoon pattern, with frequent afternoon thunderstorms that cool things down splendidly. Until then, I'll be all  :'( :'( :'(

Nice and rainy here . . . About 70°F . . . As long as is raining, humidity diesn't feel so bad

So much for the tomatoes...frosty this morning. [bang]

make the beast with two backsing hot...

Pretty good range for 3 weeks!

We've been in the 90's for 2 weeks now.

Hasn't rained in...forever.

My lawn looks like it belongs in Cali, as does the grass at the track.

Call it what you will, but definitely an abnormal weather cycle.

Prior to yesterday, we've been in the mid 90's here on the Southern coast of Maine. Way too dry, and way too hot. Finally caught a break with some lasting coastal fog, which has made for temps in the 70's during the day, and around 60 at night..... Perfect. [thumbsup]

80's during the day mid to high 70's at night, avg 90% humidity

Been riding to work in the high 20's- low 30's F.  I'm ok til 30 but got caught out by some colder sections.
Oil cooler is covered and warm up is slow.

Riding home after a night shift when ice formed on my visor. We have a "wet" cold here.

Mountain daytime temps in the 80's
Sleeping temps in the high 40's/50   
Perfect.

Front range:  too hot mid/high 90's with an occasional break of a day in the 80's.  Fires popping up a bit more.

Hot. Humid. Hazy.

Still raining since yesterday or Sunday night, can't remember . .. Very pleasant temps

Beautiful day here in central NH...7 degrees...-15 WC...25 mph winds with gusts around 40 mph.

Zeke has a dentist appointment in Concord. The highway should be fun.  [roll]

Low 40s here today, with 50+ by this upcoming weekend (motos, anyone?) before dropping back to the 30s. Last week (and the week before) were well below zero.  :P

Spring is coming.  :)

82F feels like 85   63% humidtiy

62* and clear blue skies today.  Manic f'n weather.

Autumn is here. Very pleasant weather for riding.

How did the drive to Concord go? Icy roads?

Mostly the secondary roads, and the on/off ramps. Highway was dry.

The wind was fierce.

Supposed to be very close to 60 degrees here today, and slightly cooler tomorrow.

Not looking good for the ski areas.

The Blizzard of 2022 didn't happen here. We got maybe 3 inches. It's hard to tell because the snow is so fine, and it's still blowing around.

I suspect Mr. I will be digging for a while.

Summer here in Melbourne has been strangely tropical. It got to 100F at my place with rain showers the other day. Most days have rain and temps in the 90's. We have had a cool change into the 80's but the humidity is terrible and smashes you after a days work. I normally love the heat when its dry, but this equatorial stuff is stifling. Our normally long suffering and withered baby banana tree has exploded into growth! [laugh]

Maybe 7" here.  Light fluffy stuff.

Banana tree?  Does it bear fruit?

Not yet and probably never. It was a gift and I'm amazed it's still alive but boy has it flourished lately with our tropical weather. I'm wrecked after a day on the workshop.

If the banana tree (technically plant) is one of the smaller species you can bring it in during cooler weather.  Whatever the size winter will kill it.

Yep. It suffers in winter and becomes black and shriveled. It has quite extravagant foliage now.
It's so humid its like the wet season up north with rain, floods and thunderstorms, but no cool change. There is little evaporation with puddles persisting in the heat and then there's that need to wear as little as possible. Up there in the far north they call it the silly season because people go nuts and misbehave.

It's tough tuning motors at present.
