Received a Second Alert on Severe Thunderstorms to add to the existing one for a Flood Watch. It's really booming loudly with strong winds and heavy rains.

Going up 1 degree at the time

Chamber of commerce weather forecast here for today, with highs a June-like 73 F.....

[ShapeShifter]

Was a sleepless night due to every hour to one and a half hour of repeated thunderous booming, with brilliant flashes of light and extremely heavy downpours. That continuous booming reminded me of the times spent at Grafenwoehr, Germany during Tank Live Fire Training. Unfortunately, this weather pattern is projected to continue through Wednesday.

I currently have no power! The outage happened before daybreak. Power Company estimates restoration by 10am.🤞 Thankfully, my old Uniden Power Pack is keeping the phone charged.

I don't envy you. I remember extended 1" per hour downpours in both Fayetteville and Little Rock. The only other places I've lived with that kind of production were in the tropics.

Some nice spring days ahead. Then maybe a little rain for the weekend.

Same here... Would be a new record if it was the temperature at the airport.

It was beautiful today. 79 and sunny, low humidity.

So very close to ideal. I'd go with 75, but still.

It's the low humidity part that I'll never stop desiring, and I've lived for extended periods in both extremes and in those in-between.

Sunny, 68 at the beach.
Yesterday when I checked at home, in the shade, at 4:30pm it was 79. Expecting increases of a few degrees each next 2 days, then rain/cold on Saturday.

Great, I'll never get this furniture refinishing done.

Fog, drizzle, clouds, sunshine, basically a typical day in paradise

It's raining here most of the week and doing a pretty good job reducing the amount of pollen in the air. We're expecting 1.25" over the next 24 hours.

That was one for the books. Surprised I didn’t flood out my suv today. Turn around don’t drown doesn’t apply to moms trying to get to their babies.

I think the news said we got 9” ?? Definitely do not recommend living here.

Well power was restored midmorning yesterday. An att tech finally arrived this afternoon and had to replace their gateway, apparently due to the surge. I'm also experiencing some other odd little electrical gremlins.

Rain, lots of rain!

Started to expand and build out phase 3 of our deck (19ft x 8ft) this past weekend and dug the footers and poured the concrete. Rest of the wood for it showed up at 7am this morning from Home Depot. I was not about to rent their truck and move over 50 pieces of 10ft long board by myself.

So I bit the bullet and paid the delivery fee and I am happy that I did! Hopefully the rain stops today and dries out a little bit so I can put the remaining joists in and start laying down deck boards.

I swear, this is the biggest deck in the world! lol

Glad to hear you don't have extensive damage. We faired pretty well down here. Only hiccup was I picked up a screw on the way home. Already fixed and on my way. Could have been a lot worse. In hindsight I shouldn't have driven through all those flooded roads and through all the debris. At one point I was driving up the grass through the shoulder to try and access the exit ramps that were completely submerged. You can't reason with a mom trying to get her baby. Through hell or high water

Not a good start of the week-end

Yea, it can be dangerous driving on roads underwater, especially when rushing water has washed over all kinds of hazardous debris. Glad you only had a minor inconvenience....and yes, mom's are very determined!!

Opps, Double Post

It was raining cats & dogs yesterday. Today is sunny with a high of 69°F. Next couple of days are going to be the same.

[JJ 911SC]

We made it to 16.1°C but the ride was a bit cool without the sun.
