Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Steve Shaw Date: 25 Nov 20 - 07:50 PM We've had bad weather for two months. But the sky cleared tonight, and I live in a dark sky zone. At 4.58 the brilliant ISS passed over at sixty degrees, from south-west to east. It passed by sparkling Jupiter, next to dimmer Saturn, then headed close by the gibbous moon with Mars, definitely not to be outdone, Mars being straight above the moon and very close to it. A conjunction, I should say. Then off to the east, via the rising Orion. Castor and Pollux are there too, my sign. If the world looks dim and murky and depressing, you can always look up. The firmament don't care. I'm a member of the Cloud Appreciation Society too, member no 2468, great when the stars have gone in. Join us! |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 21 Nov 20 - 09:42 PM Thanksgiving Day, where I am staying, is forecast to be wet and muggy (for late autumn). Some places, elsewhere, will have snow and ice ... |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 20 Nov 20 - 08:53 PM ... a little warmth today, enough to retire the long-johns temporarily. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 18 Nov 20 - 08:43 PM I can actually say 'snow' without thinking 'the dreaded S-word,' which is how I usually think of the stuff if it is too soon after a long bitter winter. Of course, that's because spring, summer, and fall are behind me now and winter is closing in. We had great fat snowflakes falling in the sunshine yesterday. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 03 Nov 20 - 11:11 AM Saw some cars on the street this morning that still had snow on them, although it has not snowed in this town. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 01 Nov 20 - 04:07 PM Raining the proverbial cats and dogs out there. Most of the leaves are off the trees by now. Many are still on the ground, and all this past week, the teams of maintenance / landscapers in their trucks with their leaf blowers have been all over the local towns, and they still have yet to get ALL of the leaves. We still have lush green grass, from all the rain. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Joe_F Date: 30 Oct 20 - 09:01 PM It snowed here (north of Boston) -- a couple of inches. Lucky I didn't have to go out. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: JennieG Date: 30 Oct 20 - 02:21 AM Stormy! Heavy rain and strong wind is starting as we speak, with the promise of more going into the evening (currently 5.20 p.m.). We had a doozy of a storm on Wednesday afternoon, wind, heavy rain, hail.....everything except sleet and snow. October-April - spring, summer, going into autumn - is storm season in Oz. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 29 Oct 20 - 07:08 PM ... those hurricanes would help if they could sort of turn about-face and head for the wildfires north and west of the Gulf of Mexico. Instead they drift north and east and soak the Atlantic seaboard. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 27 Oct 20 - 07:45 PM I hear that one of the wildfires in the state of Colorado is known as the East Troublesome Fire, and another as the Ice Fire for its proximity to Ice Lakes. I also hear that Colorado has had a bit of snow, which does its modest part to keep the wildfires contained -- don't recall if the snowstorm had winds, which would of course make the wildfires worse. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 19 Oct 20 - 05:15 PM The weather here is light by day followed by ever longer periods of dark. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 17 Oct 20 - 08:16 AM Finally, a break from the rain. Wish some of our rain could be shipped over to the US west of the Rocky Mountains, where they aren't getting enough rain. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 10 Oct 20 - 07:16 PM The remnant high winds of a hurricane knocked out the power earlier this week -- stripping autumn leaves from trees. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 03 Oct 20 - 06:32 PM can you believe all these hurricanes? |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Elmore Date: 02 Oct 20 - 02:40 AM The usual. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 30 Sep 20 - 03:03 PM This season is the counterpart to the German saying about the spring: Im April, thut das Wetter was es will. That's true during the end of September and the beginning of October as well. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: JennieG Date: 29 Sep 20 - 07:32 PM Well, today is quite pleasant, mild and cloudy. It *might* rain later - rain would be welcome - and possibly/probably tomorrow too, before warming up for a sunny Friday. Tomorrow, 1st October, we officially hit "storm season".....our late spring-summer-early autumn months can be very unpredictable. We are staring down the barrel of summer, but hopefully (I say this every year) it won't be too hot. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 29 Sep 20 - 06:46 PM Today it only feels like a steambath inside my facemask. How's the weather in the Southern Hemisphere? |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 11 Sep 20 - 11:57 AM What a hurricane season in the Northern Hemisphere! We're between storms now and enjoying some refreshing dry, and relatively cool, weather today. Yesterday was so muggy and hot that it felt like a steambath outdoors. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 09 Sep 20 - 06:08 AM I've seen fire and I've seen snow I've seen campers with no where left to go I've seen Rap wear a sweater cuz its really so damn cold But I never thought it be on the same 120F day. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 03 Sep 20 - 11:15 AM I cannot account for the FOG that formed yesterday. It didn't last all that long, but it was quite a trip to drive the car on the roads through FOG. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 01 Sep 20 - 06:07 PM Uncommonly beautiful this First of September: dry, clear, sunny ... recent rains leave everything looking healthy and green. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: JennieG Date: 30 Aug 20 - 03:24 AM It was a very nice spring day today, except that it's not spring yet! Seems that we are in for a spell of unseasonably warm weather, something not unknown in the tail end of winter. The longer term forecast is for a rainy spring, after a dry start. In this dry land, rain is good. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 29 Aug 20 - 08:33 PM We're getting one heck of a lightning display out of the electrical storm outside. At the very least, it might keep away the bear that has been raiding the residence dumpster. But wow! the flashes of lightning outside the window. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 28 Aug 20 - 07:11 PM North Texas is north of 100. 106o yesterday, 107o today. The heat index (what it feels like with the humidity) is around 112o. The weekend through Monday are supposed to be a little better, around 103o. Thankfully there is a chance of rain early next week. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 27 Aug 20 - 06:04 PM its 100 now |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 25 Aug 20 - 05:44 PM It's behaving like some sort of monsoon season here; there are mountains, so maybe that contributes? It must be awful for the great areas of inhabited land struggling with wildfires now, in the heat. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: JennieG Date: 23 Aug 20 - 08:46 PM Down here in Oz we've just had two of the coldest days ever (last time we were this cold was when we were in Canada, late in 2018) courtesy of an 'Antarctic blob' - isn't that a wonderful technical term? None of your polar vortexes (vortices?) here......we have blobs. Today is currently - 10.45 a.m. - sunny, but cold. Forecast is for 14 deg C but of course it will feel colder, not surprising because it is still winter. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 23 Aug 20 - 06:41 PM Plus .04% chance of an asteroid strike. The Pandemic is also covered like the weather on the news. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 23 Aug 20 - 06:36 PM From wildfires to hurricanes! Heckuva August we're having in the Northern Hemisphere. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 22 Aug 20 - 07:39 AM In Dc it is mostly cold 65-80 and varies from dry to humid with scattered Congressmen returning to hear the Postmaster declare that "people 'should' be able to vote by mail" (with a big grin) |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Joe Offer Date: 21 Aug 20 - 02:12 AM Very hot (100 degrees all week), with lots of smoke and ash. Nearest fire is 30 miles away outside Nevada City California. It took out a favorite hiking trail on the Yuba River, and forced many folkies to evacuate. -Joe- |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 20 Aug 20 - 06:32 PM Another cold rainy day yesterday, and this in the hemisphere in which August is supposed to be one of the hot sunny months -- someone where I am staying got caught in the downpour yesterday, and is home sick today with a hoarse voice and a scratchy throat. In August. Much as though it were autumn already. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 16 Aug 20 - 01:55 PM Rain here has cooled temperatures down strikingly, as it has been a hot muggy August. Other Mudcatters, I see on other threads, are rejoicing in the rain, where they live. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 14 Aug 20 - 03:53 PM ... well ... ? |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 05 Aug 20 - 09:55 AM A tornado elsewhere in the county a few nights ago; and last night the electrical thunderstorm knocked out the power for some time. No fans or refrigerated air most of the night, and it was a really humid sweaty night at that. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Mrrzy Date: 04 Aug 20 - 10:03 AM Aaaah the hurricane going by on our coadt has broken the heat... Sat on my porch this morning and was actually *chilly* and could have used socks. AC off, windows open. Pourvu que ça dure. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 03 Aug 20 - 02:08 PM Ee-za-ee-ahss, I'm used to hearing the prophet Isaiah's name at scripture readings when I attended Spanish Mass on Sundays, albeit a long time ago. A welcome sunny break from the rain today. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 03 Aug 20 - 09:44 AM Try on a Thunder shirt. Hurricane Is-as-is is; bearing down, wolfing down, ottering down, beeteling down and spidering up the East Coast. There is only a low risk of sharknados. |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 02 Aug 20 - 10:02 PM Thunder and lightning! Flash! crash! boom! |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 01 Aug 20 - 10:38 PM Anyone feeling the impact of hurricane season? |
|
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 01 Aug 20 - 01:54 PM I read in the BS section that somebody had Jewish Christmas in July, how nice! Which means: The tradition at Christmas, for New York Jewish-Americans, is to dine at a Chinese restaurant. And go to the cinema. So a Mudcatter in the Southern Hemisphere, where they also have social-distance and beware of COVID-19, dined out at a Chinese restaurant for the first time in lo! these many months. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Ebbie Date: 27 Jul 20 - 03:14 PM Thanks, Donuel. I may not be doing OK but more like fair to middlin'. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 27 Jul 20 - 11:13 AM "Alone in the dark with nothing but your thoughts, time can draw out like a blade. That was the longest night of my life." said Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redemption. Space-time is relative. Talking about the weather used to be an innocuous alternative compared to talking about religion or politics. Get your vitiman D Ebbie and don't fear your socially distanced walks Well fear them if you want but don't forget to enjoy. |
