What's your Weather like today

I’m glad it missed you, Krystal. I’ve seen some of the terrible damage in St. Louis and Kentucky. I think Texas/Oklahoma is expecting severe weather tonight.

It’s pretty good here, about 70 and windy but nothing to complain about.
 
It’s cool but nice where I am but there’s a lot of violent weather to the east.

There were several big tornadoes in north eastern Colorado. One destroyed a solar farm and at least 20 homes were damaged.

The tornadoes are popping up in Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma now. There are reports of softball sized hail.
 
Last week, it was hot and humid. Tornadoes in three areas of the state (WI). I think 'tornado alley' has moved a bit to the east in this country.
This week it's supposed to be pretty cold--40's F. 30's at night. I like the reprieve. I cleaned barn yesterday and will do garden work today. I bought a 'haz mat' suit and sprayed it down with permethrin. Ticks are bad this year. My poor cat!
 
We had several minor shakers today. The strongest was a 3.8. It seems like Weedpatch gets a lot of them, and that's only 10 miles away. Every time we have swarm of minor quakes it reminds me of the discussion I had on the phone with my brother, who lived at the time in Fort Myers, Florida. He asked me "How can you live with all those earthquakes in California?" I almost fell out of my chair laughing. My reply was "How can you live with all those hurricanes in Florida?"

I had previously told him that we lived 50 miles from the Mendocino Triple Junction, the most seismically active area of California. So when he said that, I told him that in the previous 22 years (1998 to 2020) we only had two significant shakers, a 6.5 in 2010 and a 6.2 in 2014. All others, and there were hundreds of them, were all less than 5.6. In other words, almost imperceptible.

In 2010 we got one crack in the living room wall. I asked him how many times he had to fix anything in or around his house from hurricane damage in those 22 years. He just said "Ok, you made your point..."

Ice sheet growth has a lot more to do with precipitation than temperature. Of course, you won't get ice growth if the temperatures are above freezing, but that is not generally an issue in Antarctica. The geologist mentions the volcanoes beneath the ice sheet and that is never mentioned in MSM articles on ice. Iceland certainly has volcanoes under the glaciers there and much of the North Polar ice melt in the early 2000s was caused by an undersea volcano off the north cast of Greenland that was never mentioned. That volcano cannot get funding for study as the Deep State wants to keep the Climate Change narrative to continue since many like Al Gore are making millions from the scam.

It was nice earlier today, but now we are having a thunderstorm. It looks like more rain the next couple of days,

I'm just realizing this is not recent, lol. Speaking of weather, while searching for bad weather alerts of my two daughters, I noticed you live within a couple hours from daughters in Georgia and maybe 30 minutes from granddaughter in Alabama.
 
It was so dry for so long and now it has been steadily raining for 2 whole days. Wish I could coordinate the weather to be useful to my gardens. :(
 
The weather has been weird over the last few days. Yesterday we had sunshine and wind, and it felt chilly. Last night we had heavy rain, and then today, it was really humid and we have rain again now.
 
Raining all day and unusually cold. I had to turn my heat on. I don't think I've ever had to do that this late in May.
 
My weather today

Weather today will be moderate rain in Cheshire, England.
The daytime temperature is going to reach 15.1 °c and the temperature is going to dip to 9.1 °c at night.
We expect around 8.5 mm of precipitation to fall, the humidity will be around 76%.
With 35 MPH winds.

Yes, we know. We lived here last summer and regretted almost every day of it. Couldn't wait for November to get here! There are those here that the heat doesn't bother and those that it does. For those that it does bother, they have nice paying jobs here, so they won't move.

I know. I lived there for awhile, and hated it. We had a 30 week contract to play at one of the Casino's Cabarets, and the the entire 30 weeks, we only went outside a few times. After that we moved north to Harrah's in Stateline (Lake Tahoe) and we liked that much better. It was still hot, but it was a much better place to be.
 
50 F. and raining. The lawn will be a hayfield before we get a chance to mow. The weeds in the garden are doing well, but we haven't planted many crops yet.
