The Weather Thread

[ranhammerR34]

Do the words Hell-bent mean anything to you? We have had now two severe thunderstorms and a ton of rain. Guess what? Its not going to end. And that is my 1000th post. ---- Randy

 

[Ru-fus]

About 16 °C currently, sunny skies and partial cloudy, gives it to remain sunny and warm for the rest of this week and should hopefully reach around 20 °C very good weather considering its Ireland after all.

 

[Mr. S]

That's a pretty sweet view, Mr. S!

Weather here is about what Joey has.

Not mine, tho. I have to cope with living around 200m from the Versailles castle.

Weather today is awesome, clear and sunny - 24° C.

 

[E28]

Well the weather is shockingly nice here in the UK...

 

[Unibob]

32 F here, light snow after getting almost 8 inches of it last night. Most of my town is still without power right now.

Going to snow for the next couple of days before jumping back up into the 50's F over the weekend and then the 60's next week, or at least that's what the forecast models are predicting.

 

[turboash78]

I feel you Unibob... it snowed 5 cm here last night. *slow-clap*

 

[TJ13]

Now for your Local on the 8s...
Currently its 45 under cloudy skies.
Tonight: Cloudy becoming clear after midnight low 31
Tomorrow: Sunny in the morning becoming cloudy with a slight chance of rain (30%) High 47 (My Bday and I gotta work)

Basically fall has arrived...

 

[TB]

Two soccer games slated for tomorrow, the fields were already wet and now it's raining again. Hopefully the forecast of sunny and 45 holds out otherwise this soccer season is never going to get started...

 

[TheCracker]

It was 22 degrees here this morning, warm and very sunny. About half an hour ago there was a sudden massive clap of thunder followed by a heavy hail storm. It's sunny again now but the ground is totally white, covered by hail stones the size of hazelnuts. Now the suns out the hail is melting fast so the ground is steaming everywhere. Weirdest weather i've ever experienced.

 

[itsbenjibrand]

Apparently its going to be 20 degrees Celsius, 68 degrees Farenheit, and sunny. Hopefully it rids the 3 inches of water accumalation on our driveway so I can play street hockey later.

 

[Sureboss]

26C atm. Damn warm, though there is a bit of a breeze coming off the channel, so it's not too humid. Might be beer o'clock soon.

 

[Philly]

Yesterday was 65 and sunny. Pretty awesome day. I got to drive a bit with the windows down.

 

[McLaren]

There's been projected thunderstorms all week, but being that it's Texas, they only last 1-2 hours & then go away all whilst the temperature remains in the 70's-80's.

 

[Crash]

Yesterday was 65 and sunny. Pretty awesome day. I got to drive a bit with the windows down.

Was it 65 and sunny over in Michigan? Because oddly enough, that was the exact weather here in Seattle yesterday. Best weather day of the year so far.

 

[Solid Lifters]

Cold, cloudy and gray. The entire day, so far. Too cold. In two days the temperature will be in the mid to high 80's.

 

[heinz57]

Its in the 60s here (fahrenheit) with rain. Lots of rain. We've had record setting rainfall recently. Of the past 7 days, its rained 6 of them. I enjoy going outside, usually at minimum an hour or two a day after school, so its kind of a bummer. What really stinks is that, normally when it rains, I just go inside and play video games (I already play to begin with but I play more when it rains). Well with the PSN down I cant go outside or play video games. Right during my four day holiday.

 

[bradford]

There were severe hailstorms in southern Poland yesterday. Check out some photos I've taken:

I have never seen anything like it. There were people in cars hiding under bus stops, petrol stations.

Dear Nature,

What you haven't blown away or pelted with hail you have successfully covered in water. We are not sure what your demands are, but we are open to negotiations.

Sincerely, the entire Ohio River Valley region.

PS. That lightning bolt across the street from my house at 4:30 AM...not cool. We spent the rest of the night trying to calm a baby and a dog. And must we have monsoon-like deluges every time I walk across a parking lot?

 

[Northstar]

This is a small picture of weather in Minnesota.

Nothing like having snow and nearly hitting 70F in a 48 hour span.

 

[Joey D]

We are supposed to get some epic storms tonight with wind gusts near 70mph and hail. There are also possibilities for tornadoes, but since I don't live in a trailer park I'm not worried. Seriously tornadoes in Michigan pretty much only hit trailer parks and I have no idea why.

At least it's going to be nice this weekend.

 

[Joel]

We had 3 separate thunderstorms today, All separated by periods of clear sunny skies. Odd weather..

 

[Alex p.]

Right now thunder and all here in Hanover, Germany, multiple car-alarms going off.

 

[IceMan PJN]

Today: thunderstorms. Yesterday: thunderstorms. The day before yesterday: thunderstorms. The day before the day before yesterday: thunderstorms. Every single day of April: thunderstorms. The bulk of March: thunderstorms. How's May going to run? Probably thunderstorms. The Flying Spaghetti Monster is doing his best to put the whole region under water. Somehow we have incurred his noodly wrath.

 

[Unibob]

Rain, rain, and more rain. This is the wettest April on record for: Alpena, MI (6.17 inches) as well as the Sault. (5.49 inches), both old records set in 1954.

Rain today, high of 46 F, rain tonight, low around 35 F, then mostly clear through Sat., with lows in the mid 30's, with highs in the upper 50's to mid 60's before the rain returns to start the Month of May in Northern Lower Michigan. :/

The barometer has been below 1000 millibars for the past 2 days and probably will remain that way at least through today. As of 04:54 EDT, it's at 993.0 mb/29.31" and I've got one massive headache.

 

[turboash78]

Supposed to snow on Saturday... but then again, you can't trust a weatherman's prediction more than 6 hours in advance.

 

[Philly]

This is the best spring of all time. I'm surprised Holland hasn't flooded yet though. Wacky weather can be pretty fun.

I hope everyone is okay down in the south with all those tornadoes.

 

[Solid Lifters]

It's been hot as hell the past few days. Around 95-97 and today it was a bit cooler. 91. Tomorrow, it's going to be a bit more cooler and then the temps drop much further. Mid to low 70's. A nice break from this heat wave.

 

[Wiegert]

For the first time in about 3 weeks, it actually rained. It may only be 16 degrees C here but it's still dry as hell, although rain is forecast for the next 3-4 at least.

 

[Crumpet]

We've had excessive sun for the past 6 days, it's starting to get a little annoying.

KMGY 111353Z AUTO 15006KT 7SM FEW032 22/19 A2993 RMK AO2 SLP129 T02170189

This METAR was taken at Wright Brothers Airport (KMGY) on the 11th day of the month at 1353 Zulu time, which is 1:53 pm Greenwich time, which is 9:53 am here (111353Z). The computer (AUTO) recorded a southeasterly wind from 1-5-0 degrees at 6 knots (15006KT), with ground-level visibility at 7 statute miles (7SM) and hardly any cloud cover at 3,200 feet above ground (FEW032). The temperature and dewpoint are 22 C and 19 C respectively (22/19), which means it's pretty darn humid and probably hazy out there. The barometric pressure setting a pilot at Wright Brothers should input into his altimeter is 29.93 inches of mercury (A2993). Some secondary remarks on this report (RMK) are that the detection computer is able to discriminate different types of precipitation (A02), that the would-be sea level barometric pressure at our location is 1012.9 millibars (SLP129, after adding a 10 or 9 to the front based on local pressure), and that the exact temperature and dewpoint is 21.7 C and 18.9 C.

Temp and dew point are 3 degrees apart, and it shows. Humid as hell, and hazy. Forecast to be 83 today, dang.
