What's the Weather Like?

Use this thread to post any weather related stuff. (I love weather)

I just checked out the path of newly formed Tropical Storm Fay. They are saying it will be a hurricane soon. If it follows the projected path on this chart the eye will be directly over us next Friday. We sure need the rain but I don't want to ever see anything like Hurricane Ivan again.

Well, Fay didn't follow that path and unfortunately the folks in Florida were stuck with her for way too long. Finally though she has moved up here and we are getting our first substantial rainfall in about two years. We really need it, a lot of crops have died and now many of our trees are dying.

Finally gettin' some of Fay

We're having a normal weather for this time of year, sun and a wonderful blue sky
...it's only a bit windy than usual.

So you live right on the coast Z? Do you get many big storms there?

[zenobia]

Yes it's near the coast, but I don't have the beach at my door, unfortunately, let's say it takes about 30/45 minutes driving to get there.

We don't have big storms here, sometimes it rains a lot in winter and there are places who flood very quickly, low villages around the rivers, but it usually only causes material damage, it's no big deal.
But we do have a lot of wind around here...

Today is sunny and 84 degrees. Quite warm but we have actually had a mild summer so I can not complain.

Rainy here this evening...

[Man in Black]

Yes, we are finally getting some rain here too. All of these tropical systems have changed our weather patterns.

I sure hope hurricane Ike doesn't hit Texas too hard, but it is looking bad.

[Man in Black]

Wow! Hurricane Ike is really hammering Texas. Those people are in my prayers... I really feel for them. Looks like it's going to be another Katrina, damage wise. I sure hope the people are safer than in Katrina.
