What's the weather like where you are? (8)

mjmcmillan · Jul 20, 2013

Today and tomorrow are a bit cooler than it has been being. We hit 88F today, tomorrow is supposed to be low 80s F. Clear skies today and tomorrow.

We had blistering heat here, highs in the mid 90s with heat index readings in the low 100s. The "grey lady*" handled the heat well enough even on the long trips, seems the lower thermostat for engine cooling was the right idea.

*Grey lady: Yep, my van is so old I name it. A '98 Chevy cargo van, presently with 372,000 miles on the odometer. Still going strong.

Comfortable
Sun and clouds with a gentle breeze.
High today @ 80, and low tonight @ 60... with low humidity

davedajobauk · Jul 21, 2013

Another Cool day @ 17.C

Chilly breeze

Trailltrader · Jul 21, 2013

Current temp is 59 degrees, cool and overcast just south of Seattle, WA. Nice!

rebornfree · Jul 21, 2013

Many of us seem be having more comfortable temps. A bit cooler here too; overcast, but still dry.

davedajobauk · Jul 22, 2013

Warmer than the past two days, but not, as hot as it has been recently

We are forecast RAIN for tonight /tomorrow
but we'll see if that precipitates

Presently 24.C / 76.F

servant of Merciful Love · Jul 22, 2013

Sunny, breezy, and a bit more humid, but still comfortable with temps @ 80
Showers later today and overnight (much needed!) with a low of 65.

We had a thunderstorm this morning,
it took more than an hour to approach then track over the top of us
and to disappear out of hearing range
While it was nearby, we were treated to torrential rain
which, has now reduced to spits~into the many puddles, it left behind

Forecasters [last night] gave warnings of flooding to many areas
~as the ground is so dry,
surface water would accumulate quickly and, have no way of soaking-in quickly enough

We have yet to hear/see weather reports, of areas that had problems with that

Mary and dave still here

mjmcmillan · Jul 23, 2013

Right now, 70F under clear skies. Forecast calls for partly cloudy, it might get to 80F, lower humidity. A cold front passed through last night so we're looking at cooler temps with less humidity for the next few days.

davedajobauk · Jul 23, 2013

Cool [not cold] 22.C / 74.F
Cloudy Skies, but there is bright sunshine somewhere behnd it

Maybe we are going to have further rainfall .... maybe

This is dave, from the weatherdesk, here, in Umbrella City

Bishop Bob · Jul 23, 2013

Right now about 80. No rain I hope we can dry out.

servant of Merciful Love · Jul 23, 2013

70 and breezy, with much needed tropical downpours.
Some sun later this afternoon, with temps @ 80; t-storms this evening.

davedajobauk · Jul 23, 2013

Mary just told me, that she saw news re: the weather
that we will have more storms this evening, also

That will be 'fun' ~maybe I will snap some lightning
If I get the opportunity, I will set the camera to, SPORTS 'setting'

FFFFFFAST!!!!!!

I have never had the occasion to capture lightening.
Be safe

Norah63 · Jul 23, 2013

Hoping for rain, garden is so very dry. Cooler than yesterday only 80's.

It needs a 'very quick' shutter and low exposure setting
and maybe more-than a 'little' precognition

I will have-to stay inside with the camera ~my having removed the rear porch
so that carpenters can install the new 'composite' back door [in a couple of weeks time]
They have multipoint locking systems /anti 'jemmy' fittings, armoured glass

Apparently the police do not like them,
as they are so very difficult to bypass with their ram equipment

So, I will have-to STAY inside the rear hallway 'safe' and dry

dave

servant of Merciful Love · Jul 23, 2013

Back in the day, I had the equipment...but no more.
Also, the storms here on the lake are bad enough to ring the wall phone some days
I'm happy to leave those images to the crazy 'storm chasers' (not saying you are)
Hope you get lucky

Trailltrader · Jul 23, 2013

We could use some wet weather up here in Seattle. Its been a mite dry here on the western side of the Cascades. Meanwhile, sharpen a few sticks and cook some weenies in Eastern Washington with all the fires that's been reported.

rebornfree · Jul 23, 2013

The thunderstorms never reached us here Dave. I was expecting them so didn't water the plants last night - but not a drop of rain today. Could do with it really.
