Subject: The Weather where You Live

Posted by: Cymruambyth
Date: Aug 23 11

Here on the Canadian prairies we've just gone through the driest June, July and August on record, with minimal (almost non-existent) rainfall that is well below average. This is not a good thing in Canada's bread basket.

What's happening where you live? Do you see any great change in weather patterns?

It's been unusually hot and extremely humid for Colorado. I hate the humidity; it's like a constant layer of water on my skin. I am not used to high humidity, so it's doing all sorts of nasty things. My hair cannot stop looking greasy and my nose keeps bleeding. :-(

It's a hot humidity, and it's not been fun here. Not as bad as elsewhere, but quite out of the norm for Colorado.

Hot and uncomfortable. While it clouds up in the afternoon, there is little rain.

The trees have started their usual shedding so I anticipate fall is not long off.

It has cooled off. I'm glad to have a reprieve from those super-hot, humid, days in July and early August.
We were camping on Lake Huron this past week and left for home (to the South Shore of Erie), on Sunday afternoon, just before a tornado hit.
The trip up was sad - brown lawns everywhere. A definite sign of a lack of rain.

Very mild summer in Canberra: and winter has come early too. Not much of an autumn (fall) at all.

It's been heating up here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Today the weather was over 95F. Time to pull out the shorts...

Really can't complain about the last six months. The winter was incredibly mild and spring has been perfect (about 75 most days since mid-April). Just within the last week it's begun to heat up to the low 90s.

It's been real WET around these parts the last few days. Tropical storm Debby dumped quite a few inches of rain. The storm made me late for work one night. One consolation it will help with some of the drought we've been experiencing. A little help.

Well here in the south part of Western Australia we are having the wettest winter for years. No complaints though as this usually dry State needs the water for storage in the Dams.

It's hotter than average here near Niagara Falls, and it's so dry that I haven't mowed the lawn in weeks.

March 2012...........One of driest & warmest on record. HM Government issues official drought statement.

April, May, June......July so far, and predicted ditto for August.........below average temperatures and now becomes one of the WETTEST years on record (which mean for over 100 years).

It has been said that the forthcoming Olympic games may well be the only ones ever to hold aquatic events in main arena! Lol

Here in the Atlanta area we've been having an extremely hot summer. In fact, we broke the all-time temperature record a couple of weeks ago. The evening thunderstorms over the past week are helping a bit with the drought, though.

We had almost no snow this spring, the summer was incredibly dry and hot with massive wildfires all over Colorado. So far this fall has been cool with a few small snow showers but nothing near what we need. As much as I detest winter we need the snow. Lots of it.

We dodged a bullet when Hurricane Sandy veered away from us, but hundreds of thousands are without power, and no guarantee we'll keep ours. Heard WV had a blizzard!

22 March and supposedly Spring, but today we've got more than six inches of snow lying and more to come tonight & all day tomorrow. I hear stories of Global Warming and wonder when we'll get our share. Reports talk of the coldest March for 50 years.

Today we have an unbelievable 15 inches of lying snow on Brown Clee Hill in Shropshire and it is STILL snowing a blizzard.

Snow still lying as before and STILL snowing furiously. We had an hour's sun yesterday and now have icicles from eves to window sills and snow from the roof piled up to the sills. Surely this can't continue into April? We are almost into Easter weekend!
