:laughing: Good joke, but, no, I don't like those mattress-like red and white football shirts.

By the way, look what heat made yesterday here:

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.

Wow how high does your temperature go? I never came across that just because of heat. Interesting...

Similiar to you, most of Spain hits about 40 degrees at the height of summer.

Garrett 06-28-2012 08:50 AM

It`s going to be another HOT one here today! Weather guessers are callin` for 104°F.

FETCHER. 06-28-2012 11:07 AM

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 :/

Same here about 700 miles north of you. This kinda sums it up:

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!

Mojo 07-01-2012 05:54 AM

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.

FETCHER. 07-02-2012 01:53 AM

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.

I just saw on yahoo news that we are going to get another couple of days torrential rain and again your region the north east is going to be the main target.

Winter Storm Nemo
 
Anyone in the Northeast worried about winter storm Nemo? Sounds like Boston and New England will be pummeled with snow.

Burning Down 02-07-2013 07:07 PM

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.

Bloozcrooz 02-07-2013 07:25 PM

Funny, the last two weeks I've been wearing shorts and a T-Shirt here. Meh

You live in Texas so that is absolutely shocking!

CanwllCorfe 02-07-2013 07:41 PM

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.

Astronomer 08-18-2013 05:26 AM

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.

The Batlord 09-27-2022 10:47 AM

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

Saulaac 09-30-2022 10:46 AM

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

It's only Monopoly money, anyway.

I heard from a friend living in Fort Myers. Thankfully, he escaped the worst of Ian. I hope nobody here was affected down there.

rubber soul 09-30-2022 01:03 PM

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.

What do you think of a current weather guys?

mabres 02-09-2024 05:28 PM

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.

Nefilim 03-25-2024 09:04 AM

Here it's grey. Grey n more grey.

Did I mention grey ?
