How is the weather?

Tornado warning for southern Manitoba! 

Umm, hate to see tornado warnings that far north. It's like in Minnesota; they don't get a lot of tornadoes, but by and large they are serious ass-kickers. Hope it gives you a wide berth, Ray. Manitoba is huge though, it could easily miss by 200 miles....

Party cloudy today with a little cool breeze which is a welcome relief from the usual Southern heat of summer. BTW, Ray, a tornado warning in Manitoba? That's interesting. I hope nothing comes of it, though.

Fortunately, nothing did come of it.  It did look ominous out there yesterday afternoon.

Visiting Colorado, John?   
77 Fahrenheit here in Oulu.

We don't get a lot of tornadoes in Manitoba, Gurn.  However, they do occur every now and then, but usually nothing really catastrophic.

Do a google search for tornado in Elie, Manitoba (about 1/2 hour west of Winnipeg), back in early-mid 2000s.  That was a corker!

It appears that a tornado touched down in Revere, Mass., a scant seven miles from the office.  Here in Boston, we only enjoyed the rumble of thunder and the occasional lightning flash.

Similar weather during the weekend here, with a good deal of rain. No tornados anywhere near, though.  0:)

Yeah, I saw that on the local news here! We just drove through Revere not even a month ago. The pictures looked pretty bad, but they said that surprisingly no one was seriously injured. It was very windy here yesterday, but beautiful.

I cannot remember a wetter July here in the Denver area. Beginning to remind me of last fall when many areas had to deal with flooding. 

Just a day after tornadoes touched down in the Denver metro area, another wave of dangerous weather swept into northern Colorado, this time, hitting close to areas swamped in what was described as "biblical flooding" last fall.

Cities north of Denver were already dealing with major flooding by Tuesday evening.

The National Weather Service in Boulder estimates between 3-5 inches of rain fell across eastern Larimer and western Weld counties in just a few hours. Interstate 25 in the Loveland/Fort Collins was at a standstill in several places, according to 9 News in Denver. In Harvard Gulch Park, two girls were stranded and one had to be rescued by rope.

Today in South Wales a comfortable 7° with a hint of spring in the air, getting me out into the garden for the first serious bit of tidying-up of the year.  And in the NE USA?...

We're out for tidying, too!

My street today.

Braved the elements and went for a walk through what would usually be a traffic-filled downtown (driving ban was in effect.)

This  inconsequential-looking snow covered roadway heading south to Boston is the bridge that goes "Over the River and Through the Woods to Grandfather's House."

Arghhh! Your pictures make me want to go back to Mass!

Mostly sunny and 22º C here in Southern California.  But despite a bit of rain lately, we're still in a severe drought.

Send me your address and I can ship you several tons of solid water by U.P.S. (c.o.d. of course).
