Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 08 Jan 20 - 12:25 PM A nice day to stay indoors and admire the blue sky and the sunshine through the window, away from that winter wind. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 06 Jan 20 - 01:41 PM North Texas is sunny and bright, slightly crisp, and the air is jam-packed full of "mountain cedar" (juniper) pollen that drifts in from Central Texas every December and January and makes allergy sufferers miserable. It's just dry enough also that the sinuses are already unhappy. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 30 Dec 19 - 10:43 AM It's wet, wet, wet -- and above freezing, thank heavens. Yes, Jeri, I'm sure that Maine is going to bear the brunt. And just think of Gnu in New Brunswick. Thinking of all you guys to my north. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 29 Dec 19 - 10:55 AM Post 2200! A storm system is headed for the northeastern US with snow, freezing rain, and rain where it is warmest. But hopefully DC won't get the stuff below freezing. Massachusetts, with my luck, probably will. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 29 Dec 19 - 10:50 AM It was 60 and sunny yesterday and tommorrow will be mid seventies in DC. It almost makes me think of this thing called global warming. However we can still get 5 ft snowstorms or 105 heat. Extremes have become the norm recently. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 18 Dec 19 - 08:45 PM I posted this on the Australian bushfires thread, but it is weather related! Cloud-surfing at 3,000ft captures the perfect perfect morning glory clouds Like a surfer on a wave, Mike Zupanc balances high in the sky on a glider while taking photos of cloud formations that many of us can only ever imagine seeing. The gliding enthusiast-turned-photographer's image of a morning glory cloud titled On Cloud Nine, will feature in the Bureau of Meteorology's (BOM) 2020 calendar. "People surf waves and for hang gliders we do the same thing," he said. "We use an engine to help us launch off with power then we get to where the wave is and switch the engine off and just ride the waves of the cloud." (read on) google image search on "morning glory clouds" sandra in hot & smoky Sydney Sydney temperature, measured at Observatory Hill on the harbour, was 21.1 at midnight & 37 at noon (40 mins ago) Penrith, 60 km west of the CBD was 21.5 at midnight & 39 at noon. Forecasts for today - Sydney 41, Penrith 45 & only 33 at Sydney best known beach Bondi. Greater Sydney facing oppressive heatwave, extreme smoke, fire danger I'm not far from the harbour so am "only" expecting 41, but my place is cool as long as I stay near the fan. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 12 Dec 19 - 11:44 AM The New England region should ship some of the moisture towards Australia -- there is risk of flooding here from the rain and the melting of snow and ice, and all this BEFORE New Year's. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 04 Dec 19 - 12:23 AM well, I started out in New England and ended up in Arizona, and the weather is one heck of a lot better in Arizona than it is in New England. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 01 Dec 19 - 01:22 PM ... the snowstorm should be any minute now. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Mooh Date: 01 Dec 19 - 06:46 AM Freezing rain, wind. Looks like a skating rink our there, no snow, just a coating of ice. I'm about to leave for my volunteer job opening the local Anglican church for worshipers. Not much to it, just checking the heat, unlocking doors, minor tidying, etc. Someone else attends to snow and ice. I might need my skates. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Steve Shaw Date: 30 Nov 19 - 03:56 PM It's the end of November and here in Bude we have yet to have an air frost. I don't think that's happened since we moved here 33 years ago. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: ChanteyLass Date: 28 Nov 19 - 08:04 PM Here in RI and as far north into MA as I went (more than halfway to NH, I think), it was cold and windy enough that I had to hold the steering wheel tightly to stay in my lane. But there's a beautiful thing crescent moon tonight! |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: mg Date: 28 Nov 19 - 04:17 PM absolutely gorgeous. probably mid fifties and sunny with some clouds. i will go on a walk soon as soon as i get unlazy, a condition that has plagued me since retirement. Camellias are blooming, likewise rhododendruns. missed the cyclone bomb..too far north for it but i have been in a couple of cyclones here and not fun. somehow all the bad weather we used to have..days of torrential rains this time of year..has moved elsewhere and we are at least for now in paradise. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Joe Offer Date: 28 Nov 19 - 01:04 AM Well, they weather people say that we in California are experiencing a "bombogenesis." The Weather Service says Bombogenesis, a popular term used by meteorologists, occurs when a midlatitude cyclone rapidly intensifies, dropping at least 24 millibars over 24 hours. A millibar measures atmospheric pressure. This can happen when a cold air mass collides with a warm air mass, such as air over warm ocean waters. The formation of this rapidly strengthening weather system is a process called bombogenesis, which creates what is known as a bomb cyclone. And that parts of California may have winds up to 100 miles per hour. We got about two inches of snow last night, and the temperatures are in the thirties. We may get more snow tomorrow. I'm glad our electric power is working. Cheers! -Joe- |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 26 Nov 19 - 07:14 AM bushfires are raging around the country, we also are in the midst of severe drought affecting large parts of the country & today parts of Sydney are suffering from a wild storm. Sydney storm cuts power to 47,000 homes as 90km/h winds bring down trees Tho not in my part of Sydney, we just had leaves & twigs around street trees & in gardens. Tomorrow's forecast 23C (approx 76F) Sunny. Winds west to southwesterly 15 to 25 km/h becoming light early in the morning then becoming east to northeasterly 25 to 35 km/h in the early afternoon. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 15 Nov 19 - 12:54 PM Okay, it's still late autumn, but without that bitter wind at least one can draw breath again. The wind is due to return tomorrow, however. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 07 Nov 19 - 07:32 PM Well, according to the Doppler radar on the weather map, the Berkshire mountains are being snowed upon. So is Buffalo (what else is new) and northern New Hampshire. A great blob of Doppler rain storms is all over the northern Atlantic seaboard, however it's likely to turn to snow as the cold air pushes east. Sigh. It was swell while it lasted ... |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 05 Nov 19 - 02:23 PM Pouring down rain here. By week's end, it is supposed to be sn*w. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 03 Nov 19 - 03:34 PM That's sweet of you, Donuel. If I had seen a rain-bar, I would remember it. In New Mexico and Arizona there were a wealth of double rainbows, plainly visible for miles. But I never saw a rain-bar. Here in Massachusetts, the sun is back, after a week of rain and windstorms. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Donuel Date: 23 Oct 19 - 01:09 PM Last night I saw my first rain bar, not rainbow. It was well after dusk/sunset and 2 very wide rain bars were shineing straight up with deep saturated color. Without sun shine the colors were not washed out but were intense so that even the violet was super strong. It appeared to go almost 10 miles up. I was reminded of a black opal. |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Perry_P Date: 21 Oct 19 - 09:24 AM We are on a Europe trip for a month now and our next stop after Spain will be Portugal. Seems like it's not a very good time to visit Portugal, it will be cloudy and kinda cold when we landed according to weather forecast. Or maybe it's the best time for me to visit Portugal since I'm not a big fan of hot weather. Anyway we are planning to buy property in Algarve with my wife soon so I should better get used to the hot weather as soon as possible. |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: keberoxu Date: 19 Oct 19 - 04:05 PM Bright clear sunny skies for the Head of the Regatta event on the Charles River in Boston today. I'm not there. It must be a multitude/mob scene. I just hear about it in the news soundbites as I drive my car and listen to the radio. In the meanwhile, the weather is just starting to get cold enough to dispatch mosquitoes, especially those that carry West Nile/triple-E virus, which has been sickening and killing people again this year... |

Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: JennieG Date: 05 Oct 19 - 07:59 PM Summer is starting early. The drought is biting hard and we are staring down the barrel of another hot dry season. Today and tomorrow will be hot with a lot of dust swirling around (indoor days for those who have any kind of breathing problems) but we should be back to more mild weather on Tuesday, thank goodness. Rain would be nice..... |
Subject: RE: What's the weather like where you are? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 05 Oct 19 - 05:22 PM We (North Texas) have been in the 90s for weeks. We are still in the mid-90s as we enter the second week of October, and it has been weeks since rain so the yard is tinder dry. |
