Windy all day today, made for an interesting highway trip out of town :yikes:
Yep, I can definitely relate. This afternoon I was out on the highway and needed to use my wipers after a semi passing the other direction sprayed me. I decided to use the washer fluid and the wind was blowing so damn hard that the fluid that should have hit the windshield in front of me landed on the passenger's side of the windshield instead. :nod:

59F under partly cloudy skies. Expected to reach 62F today with a small chance of some rain. Come Saturday, the high is only expected to be 39F with rain and snow. :(

Today's weather was quite scary, tornado warnings all over the midstate, & typically for a Friday, I was out in it. When I decided to call it a day & was heading home on the interstate (hoping to beat the worst of it), the rain came down so hard & fast wipers were of no use at all, visibilty was approximately my windshield + 1 ft.

Today it was about 80F and sunny, with a nice breeze. We also had the most gorgeous sunset - it looked like Sedona in the sky. :) I really wish I had my camera with me....was the most gorgeous thing I've seen in a very long time.

32F right now but expected to get up to 63F today and almost 70F tomorrow. Problem is that it's going to be very windy ... 20-35 mph over the two day with gusts over 40. :( Then rain on Thursday. :(

61F and raining. Actually didn't get much rain until this afternoon, so it didn't affect my going for a walk this morning. Glad for that.

scotzoidman
04-19-2008, 12:51 AM
Nice partly cloudy day, with a little wind, but as the sun went down turned to a driving rain (that I had to go out in, & got soaked)...

And then, of course, there was this little earthquake in the early hours that I managed to sleep thru, but I did hear & feel an aftershock late morning...didn't realize what it was until the wife told me about the trembler later...

IowaMan
04-25-2008, 07:53 AM
Lots of rain, and a little bit of hail, here right now. Looks like we've got a severe thunderstorm warning out for my county right now.

We've had over two inches of rain here since yesterday afternoon. :yikes:

http://bestsmileys.com/storms/10.gif It hasn't started raining yet, but I can hear thunder in the distance. I think it's only a matter of time.


(I just heard on the news that up to a foot of snow is expected in part of Arizona!!! :yikes: )

IowaMan
05-25-2008, 06:34 PM
79F and very muggy here right now. :(

There are tornadoes flying around a little bit to the north of here. Apparently there is one that has been on the ground near Waterloo for quite some time. They are reporting that it is at least a half mile wide with winds in excess of 150 mph. Looks like it is going to stay north of here though.

The bad news is that there's a storm forming in the south central part of Iowa now that apparently is going to produce tornadoes as well and it should be on path to be in this part of the state in a few hours. :mad:

dicksbro
05-26-2008, 04:23 AM
66F with thunderstorms in the area. We had a pretty good one within the hour, but, it's calmed down for now. Expecting more today with highs in the upper 70s. Kind of makes our picnic plans a bit tenuous.

dicksbro
05-30-2008, 03:08 PM
http://bestsmileys.com/storms/2.gif Rain, Rain, and more Rain. http://bestsmileys.com/storms/4.gif My guess is that we easily exceeded two inches in the last hour and half and probably more than three. http://bestsmileys.com/storms/2.gif We're still under a tornado watch until 10PM our time (about seven more hours). http://bestsmileys.com/storms/4.gif

Scarecrow

Just got a tornado warning for the next 45min. One was spotted on the ground 25 miles to the west of me. Tornado sirens are just now going off.

Scarecrow

OK just got the all clear from that tornado warning, so we are just under a thunderstrom warning until 9pm local

dicksbro
05-31-2008, 05:24 AM
Fortunately,things went pretty well here. Lots of rain (2-3" is my guess) but the worst concerns (hail and tornados) passed us by. This morning its 64F under fair skies with sunshine and a high of 84F predicted. Bit warm for me, but still a good looking day ahead of us.

dicksbro
06-01-2008, 05:41 AM
Another warm one in store for us. 60F now with 83% humidity and expecting it to reach 85F later in the day. At least a remote chance we'll pick up a thunderstorm this afternoon, but otherwise, a good day for sweating. :)

70F and cloudy this morning and a rain shower just passed through. Humidity is at 82%. There's a 70% chance of strong thunderstorms today (although I hope they're wrong :wish: ) Only good thing is that the high isexpected to stay below 80F.

79F under fair skies at 10 minutes to 4 this morning.

Suppose to be windy today with strong thunderstorms a possibility this afternoon. High of 86F expected. Too much like summer too early in the year. :(

Scarecrow
06-08-2008, 10:12 PM
And now more rain tonight and tomorrow.

How highs the water ... 12 inch and rising. Temp today was 92f with the humidity so thick you could cut it with a knife. what happened to spring????

Beautiful day here. Went for a walk this morning with temperatures in the mid-60s. It's in the 70's now with bright sunshine. I could take this year round. :)

dicksbro
06-15-2008, 05:29 AM
Mid-60s right now rising to 86F later. This afternoon ... you guessed it, a 70% chance of "strong" thunderstorms. :(

Next several days look pretty good, though, with the highs only in the 70s. :)

Oldfart

Just another boring dry season day, perfect.

dicksbro
06-16-2008, 04:18 AM
62F under fair skies. Only suppose to get up to 76F today so the heat is easing off a bit. That's okay, 70s are my favorite temperatures. :thumbs:

PS - It's getting near 8:30AM now. Went out to the park for a walk, but the mosquitos and gnats were especially bad. I've noticed that a lot when the grass is extremely wet. We had a violent storm pass through yesterday and the park showed the effects with LOTS of downed branches and at least on large tree covering half the park road. Didn't stay long but did see one deer and got a couple of long-distance pictures. Have dumped them off yet but will share when I do get that done a bit later.

Just heard on radio that tomorrow we will be under a flash flood watch starting in the afternoon thru sunday afternoon, we will get 2-4inches with some spots getting up to 8 inches of rain. It will be the remnants of Ike. We had 2inches of rain today so the ground is already wet.

It actually snowed pretty good all day yesterday ... but the streets and grounds were still warm enough that a lot of the snow melted. Maybe had 3 or so inches when I went to bed last night. Another inch or so was expected today. First snows are always kind of pretty.

A sudden (& unpredicted) snowstorm hit us here last night, & I got caught out in it. What should have been a 2 1/2 hr trip (at most) instead took four terrifying hours off of my life. :car: :eek: I'm afraid I may have snapped at the asst to the driver supe that made the mistake of calling me about my schedule tomorrow while I was desperately trying to survive tonight. :ranting: I may owe someone an apology.

The weirdest part is that there's a clearly visible line dividing those who got heavy snow from those who got none, & the line runs right thru Metro Nashville, SW to NE...& this time it's us to the south of the line that got dumped on...

I think the supermarkets are the most upset about the lack of warning; in these parts, people flock to the Kroger store to stock up on bread & milk if there's even a whisper about "snow"...

Scotz, I think the main problem you had was you were in Nashville. I drove to Murfreesboro and back and didn't that many problems. Only two in fact, and it was the first time I drove in the snow. You're right though, people around here buy the oddest things for bad weather. They should be stocking up on lamp oil/candles, can soups, bread is fine, just about any kind of food that doesn't need to be kept cool. That way if the power goes out, you're not opening the fridge and freezer all that much. Also, you have no way of cooking it in the first place really. Unless you have a wood stove.

Scotz, I think the main problem you had was you were in Nashville. I drove to Murfreesboro and back and didn't that many problems. Only two in fact, and it was the first time I drove in the snow.
The initial part of my trip started at home on the south side, to the I-24/Harding area, then to Murfreesboro Rd (Edge-o-Lake area), which was where I saw the worst of the weather. My journey went thru downtown to the west side, where it was "Snow? What snow?!?" Weirdest weather I've ever seen, & after five decades in Gnashville, that's sayin' sumpin'.

The main source of terror was the other drivers...I got front-wheel drive, and lots of experience with the worst this town has to offer, but getting stuck behind some yucklehead that thinks if he just guns the engine harder, the wheels will stop slipping....great googlymoogly, that's scary...

Well, looks like everything is covered with at least 1/4" of ice this morning. Pretty soon (when it gets light out) I'll have to get some salt spread on the sidewalks and maybe do some work to get the cars "de-iced" so the doors will open. Probably won't want to really drive anywhere for a while. :(

At least it doesn't look like limbs have broken or that power has failed (knock on wood).

Looks like I was more fortunate than you, dicksbro. My part of Iowa got missed by the ice, but we got plenty of snow. Enough that, currently, school is two hours late (and on the one day my son really really wanted school to be on time, since today is the last day before Christmas vacation and they were planning a party) and getting out of my parking lot is going to be interesting, to say the least.

Just went out (had a haircut appointment). Ice is reasonably thin and I was able to chip it off the windows and doors of the car with no problem. Streets were more slush than ice and so weren't hard to drive on. Thank heavens.

3F under clear skies with a high today of only 16F expected. Might get a few snow showers, but it looks like those have pretty much already passed through the area.

Snow lying about 5 inches deep here, starting to thaw, but I don't think we've seen the last of it.

I will second that one!! We need it although it's a nice 19.0 degrees however no breeze so the fans are going AND it's 2:10am here at the moment.... i guess after a :licker: then it's hard not to be hot lol
