Free For All Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 I'm in Sacramento for the week. Supposed to be 110 tomorrow. WTF? I left Florida for this?? Quote
Larry Kart Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Just took a look at the weather radar. There's a block of heavy rain heading toward the Chicago area that's as wide as one-third of Iowa. Right now it's about to drench Davenport. Quote
kinuta Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Torrential rain has stopped, currently witheringly humid and unpleasant. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 Bright morning, but it won't last. Black clouds gathering to the SW. MG Quote
sidewinder Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) Bright morning, but it won't last. Black clouds gathering to the SW. MG According to the news UK and most of Europe is having a 'mini monsoon' this Summer so that's the rest of the season written off I guess. Some very heavy rain yesterday (I need to de-clog my gutters). Anyone see that video of the washing being sucked into a tornado up in Lancashire? Crazy ! Eeee bah gum me washing's sucked up....

MG According to the news UK and most of Europe is having a 'mini monsoon' this Summer so that's the rest of the season written off I guess. Some very heavy rain yesterday (I need to de-clog my gutters). Raining well now. Hardly monsoon weather, 'cos it's bloody cold here Anyone see that video of the washing being sucked into a tornado up in Lancashire? Crazy ! Eeee bah gum me washing's sucked up.... Very dramatic. Can imagine a Gracie Fields song about that. Or George Formby - "Ladies' nighties, I have spied, I've often seen what goes inside..." MG Quote
Tim McG Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 I'm in Sacramento for the week. Supposed to be 110 tomorrow. WTF? I left Florida for this?? Welcome to the legendary heat of the Central Valley. It won't be near as muggy, though. BTW, drink tons of H2O.....this type of heat will wick away water from your body so fast you'll be dehydrated before you even know what hit you. Trust me on this.

Trust me on this. You're not kidding! I've been drinking water like crazy this week. Yeah, I carry a water bottle around about the size of a small kid. Its been an obnoxious week here so far, with screaming heat and humidity. Its been raining like clockwork every afternoon and through the next morning, which does nothing to alleviate the heat. Quote
sidewinder Posted July 9, 2008 Report Posted July 9, 2008 More rain today. Don't think I'll water the garden. MG If it carries on this rate we'll get floods again ! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 More rain today. Don't think I'll water the garden. MG If it carries on this rate we'll get floods again ! Indeed. The area abot thirty miles north of here usually gets about ten feet a year. Dread to think what it'll be like this year. Rained all day yesterday until 10pm. Didn't start again until I went out for a ciggie this morning! MG Quote

kinuta Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 Humid and cloudy. The crows outside are going berserk, does anyone have any idea why crows sometimes erupt into total bedlam ?? Quote
