Yeah, but Dude, we had 20+" in May alone!!! 

[Karl Henning]

Gosh, suddenly it is pouring.

(And, yes, we do need the rain.)

[Bogey]

Getting walloped with snow.  70 yesterday and out doing spring yard work in short sleeves.  Now, we are looking at 14 inches and it did not kick in until 4 A.M.

[Karl Henning]

Zowie.  We had not much snow at all overnight Sunday into Monday, and the weather has turned milder right away.

     Soon I won't need my heater.

Typical Colorado weather.  Reminds me of the Mind Eraser roller coaster at Elitch Gardens!

[North Star]

15-20 ^oC (59-68 ^oF) and partly cloudy for a good long while.

It's cloudy, overcast and no longer hot - hooray!

This week the weather has been beautiful - apart from today. More exactly...

...I've been on jury service since Monday. I could have got out of it relatively easy due to being self-employed, but that wouldn't sit right with me. So all week I've been at the court. I walked there (two miles) and walked back (different route and so almost two and a half miles) every day apart from this one, because as soon as we'd been discharged and I stepped outside the building it began to rain heavily. It's still raining and if anything heavier than before.

An aside: despite my perhaps somewhat colourful life, this was my first time in a courtroom. When we arrived they put us in a basement area with tables and chairs, but no windows and so everyone was sweating. Ah, "just like in 12 Angry Men". Remember the scene where the fan doesn't work? With that in mind I volunteered to stand on a chair and switched on the air conditioning. It didn't work.

In St. Louis, autumn does not so much "arrive" as summer just exhausts itself.  On our street, dried-up leaves drift along the thorough-fare creating an autumnal scene, but temps remain in the 80s and low 90s. It's Labor Day today and so am being laborious:  the creeping jenny (ground cover) in our rose circle gave-up the ghost several weeks ago and so I'm going low maintenance and covering the area with weed carpet and stone. Prob. look better anyway.

TO all our southeastern US members, stay safe! Hopefully, you'll miss the brunt of things from Hurricane Matthew, but it's looking like some of you might get a sideswipe at a minimum.

Thank you!
I live in the southern edge of the Hurricane Warning area, and will certainly get at least tropical storm conditions even if the core of the storm stays at sea.  I am expecting to lose power at some point Thursday night/Friday early AM.

Availability of bread, water, batteries, and gas for cars this morning was like a scene from Venezuela: bare shelves, gas stations out of gas, etc.  I think a lot of people were panic buying.

Susan & I just returned from a 4-day trip to the NC coast (Atlantic Beach-Morehead City-Beaufort) - tip of the arrow that I put on the map below - Matthew is predicted to come through the area as a Cat 2 hurricane - there are a lot of low-lying properties there - hope for the best, a beautiful area to visit - back home in Winston-Salem and suspect just some rain and wind, hopefully not too bad?

ADDENDUM - just in!  See second pic -    Dave (showed up on my FB page a few minutes ago).

During my run the sky was cloudy and the temperature around 48° F/9° C - not terribly cold, but I think I'll be wearing an extra layer tomorrow morning.

[Turner]

Rather cold and humid, autumnal. And I´ll be off to the South and Madrid tomorrow, and forecasts say rather miserable there too.
Then I´ll be going to the Soria province, and they say cold, but quite dry up there.

[Jaakko Keskinen]

Ï am one of those relatively few people who enjoy rain. It hasn't rained here for quite some time now and it's a bit depressing. It's still cold, though. 

[cilgwyn]

I like it too. It;s quiet. No one hanging around. No open windows with noisy music pumping out of them. No noisy construction work....and definitely less! If it wasn't for the leak in the roof!! Cold weather helps even further.......except for the heating bills!
I wish this mild snap would end!

Just been out for my morning run and the weather is decidedly dreich.
