We've had a terrible night. The wind force was fearful, and there was a very loud, shrill whistling (I think it was the wind on the telephone wire attached to our guttering) Neither of us slept a wink. Bangs and crashes - we thought our tiles were off, or our fences down.
So relieved to see no damage this morning (miracle!) but I'm going to need a long nap this afternoon. I feel absolutely rotten!
Sorry about your flooding Steve. We haven't been down to the Wensum yet at our bridge. Bet the water level is high, if not over the banks.

Do we have any United States Mudcatters in what we call
the Deep South,
that's the southeastern US ?

Because the Mississippi is flooding,
and so are the smaller rivers thereabouts,
they have had entirely too much rain
and the weather keeps getting
warm moist airflow from the Gulf of Mexico ...

mudslide city. Houses AND highways collapsing.

walking a fine line, in my region.
The season has been warm and wet:
enough rain for concern about flooding anyway.

The rivers are unusually high for February, however.
Now the weather is cool, clear and dry,
and I see the water line going down gradually.
This bodes well for this region.

I have an absolute horror of flooding or surges.
My blood freezes to hear about the mudslides and floodwaters
in other parts of the country.

I'm in northwest Florida, just south of the Alabama line. We've had some fairly heavy rains, but the real flooding is happening in and around Jackson, Mississippi, which is about 200 miles northwest of us.

Well, we have had rain. Beautiful rain. That which was dry, dead and brown not so long ago is now lush and green.

The big complaint here now is weeds, the unwanted sort. Khaki weed, cat head burrs and that succulent weed which I do not know the name of are running rampart.

Weather is pretty comprehensive today.
Sure there is wind, direction, speed and air pressure, dewpoint, temperature along with sun duration, X ray sun storms and lunar phases.
We also report fires earthquakes and tsunamis along with pollen mold spores arroyos tornados hurricane rain hail snow ice and fog.
I think airborn virus has its own coverge but we have no direct means to measure it. I have yet to see an animation of viral infection but there will be soon.

Today, the weather in New England
reserves the right to change its mind.

Bright sunshine first thing in the morning.
Followed by snow.
Followed by bright sunshine,
and this time, gusty winds.
Followed by small hail, or maybe, large sleet?
All within a period of maybe six hours.
And the month is May ...

"Graupel." I learned a new word.
It describes tiny pellets of ice precipitation
somewhere between sleet and small hail,
with ice and snow mixed together. Or something.
That's what fell out of the sky two days ago ...
in May, in the northern hemisphere.
Today it was just plain rain.
Rain is all right though.
The plant kingdom is greening and growing like gangbusters now,
and the growing green things
need all the rain they can get right now.
Even if there is a chilly wind blowing.

And with our luck,
we will go from early spring
straight into summer ...

be nostalgic for nights
that are cool and dry for sleeping.
