How's The Weather

Clear skies - low this morning in the low forties - highs to be in the low to mid-eighties - no rain in sight!

highs in the low to mid eighties - oh to be in texas
high winds and rain here again tonight

Just to show you what a difference a few miles can make . . .

We were working at a Boy Scout rummage sale close to home for part of the day, where the temperature probably got to around 85º F and very sunny.

Around 2 PM, I took my son and grandson to a birthday party at the beach, about 10 miles from there. The fog was so thick you could hardly see the waves of the ocean (which was no more than 50 yards from the party tables) and the temperature was no more than 65º F (if it was that!).

This morning, when the day started and we headed out for the rummage sale at 7 AM, it was in the low forties!

For the past week or so, we've had what I consider ideal Texas weather for this time of year.

Brilliant sunshine during the day but temperatures in the 65/85 degree F range. Nights frosty enough that I turn on the electric mattress cover I have to help keep warm. (At my age and with fairly poor circulation, I tend to chill easily).

Hi Guys,

Take a look at this today:-

Further snow forecast overnight
A motorist in North Antrim
Motorists in Northern Ireland faced treacherous conditions

Snow has been forecast for higher ground in Wales overnight after heavy falls caused disruption on Northern Ireland's roads.

Motorists were advised to drive with caution after temperatures dropped to their lowest October level since 1934.

The cold snap has caused sleet and snow showers across the UK since Tuesday.

and around where I live,
but not affecting us

Thursday 30 October
FLOOD WARNING
There are 5 flood warnings in force in the United Kingdom: Southwest

I'm beginning to think the global warming people are off their rocker. For the past year or so, most regions of the world have experienced record cold spells.

Areas not far from us had snow already. Snow in October! We are having temps in the 30's at night and topping in the 40's during the day.

What I heard is that tne snow in London (was there actually snow in London?) was a record-breaking event, having not happened in over 120 years.

Hi

After non stop rain from mid morning yesterday today is for November, quite pleasant, no wind,dry and bright. I think the rain is back tomorrow. The good thing is that this week we're on holiday and might get away for a couple of days to Shakespeare country.

Hi Keith

I feel real sorry for all you folks in UK with all that rain, sleet, snow and cold........

As I cool off from the hot sun in my pool

wall to wall sunshine predicted for at least the next 3 weeks here, so guess who is NOT coming back to UK for a while, if ever!

Settling into balmy, non-rainy stuff! Daytime temps in the 80s and lows in the 60s. Chamber of commerce weather (but we are desperate for rain here).

cold,wet and raining for a change. roll on summer

Quote from Jay J. Foraker

(we are desperate for rain here).

Hey, Jay, notice how our cousins in England keep rubbing it in, always talking about it raining there.

We've been in somewhat drought conditions the past couple of years, in that we've definitely had significantly lower than average rainfall.

However, yesterday, the skies opened up and we had over 3½ inches of rain! The streets were practically running like a small river. It was also very windy, so we had several power outages throughout the day.

Today? Mild and SUNNY, but with beautiful clouds gracing the blue skies!
