By the way, look what heat made yesterday here: http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/5092/burnedbus.jpg Not directly, of course, but motor's oil got warmer and warmer and then it began to burn. Fortunately, the driver acted quickly, passengers were ordered to vacate the bus and finally nobody got injured. |

It`s going to be another HOT one here today! Weather guessers are callin` for 104°F.
|
The sun is peeping out :D, maybe summer will eventually arrive? Since it's been pissing down for weeks. I literally had to drive flooded roads last night :/

I hate being warm, I can handle about 5mins of it before I retreat to the shade. This is ofcourse not in Scotland.

This week has provided the craziest weather I've ever experienced. We've had some sunny, almost summer-looking days. However we have also had this...

I thought the eastern side of the UK always got far less rain than the eastern side!
|
In the north east we're usually fortunate enough to miss this kind of weather, whenever places further sound get hit. This time, however, I think the north was where it hit the worst. I think it mainly affected parts of the midlands, Wales and the north from what I was reading online.
Newcastle Central rail station was closed as it was flooded, several metro stations were largely under water, the traffic came to a complete halt as it was taking many people between 5 and 7 hours to get home after work. many cars were left abandoned in the streets, there is of course the video I posted which is a great example of the thunder and lightning and there is another doing the rounds of the sheer volume and pressure of the rain blowing a manhole cover and the water flowing out onto the streets. There was also, sadly, a report of a man being swept away who then died. I personally was lucky. I was in the pub after work when the storm hit us, it rained hard for a little while and then stopped. I was able to get home without any disruption at all, bar a small 5 minute de-tour as a road was closed. In the meantime though, not 15 or 20 miles up the road there was people completely stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic between roughly 5pm and 11pm/midnight, if not later. |
Yeah I had to drive through some flooded backroads in my new car, I was ****ing ****ting it. Thankfully Dave is a legend and carried me through :). I hadn't even noticed the heavy rain until someone text me haha, even then I didn't think it was bad until I hit some downhills! :O.

Winter Storm Nemo
Anyone in the Northeast worried about winter storm Nemo? Sounds like Boston and New England will be pummeled with snow.
|
I wonder why they're calling it Nemo? That's hilarious. Well, we're getting that as well AND it's going to merge with another storm here that's coming from out west. Apparently we're even under a blizzard watch. So yeah, we'll have a crap ton of snow by tomorrow night. My dad's excited because he'll finally get to use his new snowblower.
|
Funny, the last two weeks I've been wearing shorts and a T-Shirt here. Meh

It looks like we're supposed to get somewhere between 5 and 12. We haven't had any big storms, and winter is on its way out, so I can take it.

I must say I am rather over this summer. Well officially summer is over here but 37 degrees in March is just crazy.
|
I'm excited about the weather because a teensy bit of snowfall is possible for where I live tomorrow! Never happens! Snow! I'll probably be at work though... (I don't work where I live :()

Fiona just devastated much of eastern Canada. Unreal.

That's what you get for having the Queen on your money.

Now the King, although that's almost definitely much of a muchness.

I heard from a friend living in Fort Myers. Thankfully, he escaped the worst of Ian. I hope nobody here was affected down there. |
My Dad is in Sebring (Central Florida but right in the path). I have a cousin near Tampa and I think my half-brother is in Orlando. Hopefully they are all okay. Guess I'll find out on my brother's Facebook page.

OccultHawk on an inner tube to Cuba as we speak.

What do you think of a current weather guys?
|
This winter weather is so weird. Rain, snow, rain, sun, snow again. I checked this info via the kold customer service as usual. And I don't like these constant temperature swings. Looking forward to spring.

Here it's grey. Grey n more grey.
Did I mention grey ? |
