I know! 49 here. We get nicer weather tomorrow, Boss?
Our got hit last year as well. Made me sick. We still had some, but less than a third of normal. We had a hard freeze for several days last week. I was afraid our had gotten bit again. But apparently not. Today I saw tons of blooms and even some tiny little berries on some plants.
It was upper 50's and blue skies today. Not much wind either. It's been really windy the past month or better.
I don't know how I missed your post!! We dodged the storm bullet!! 80's today but stupidly windy! Everyone in the path of the storms stay safe!!
Lite rain off and on. Possible storms tonight
Overcast, a few light showers this morning. Bad storms coming late tonight. Of course they are after midnight. I'm in the 3/5 risk zone but storms seem to be tracking north this spring. Not good for the TN valley, good for me though.
Prime tornado weather for the next week, tis the season!

The temps may not seem bad, but the wind gusts are horrible! I am wearing three layers of tops and so cold. The wind was blinding with all the dust in the air.
Watching the weather channel... super cells popping up from arkansas to Illinois. A small tornado went through north little rock ak, maybe an ef2.
Super cell stacking is occurring. super cells following the same track as the one before it.
Edit to add, these cells are screaming by at 50mph, a very good thing. When super cells slow down to 20/30mph, people start dying. I'm referring to ground speed.

It was 77°F with a nice cool breeze here, but I just saw that there were TWO tornadoes near Sigourney (sp?) Iowa. They were big ugly looking things.
High wind advisory tonight and tomorrow, we will see what happens. Teddy will be in the bunker, he doesn't like wind.
Haha, Weedy, I made the mistake of removing my sunglasses before I stepped out of 'The Mighty Camry' yesterday to refuel at the service station, and a powerful gust hit and just COATED my eyeballs with dust... it was something between 'TRUE GRIT' and 40 Grit, lol. I usually take off my shades so I can see the card reader a little better, but it was a mistake to remove them yesterday. The grit lasted for a couple hours too... stayed with me due to my charming personality, lol.

Who does? There is so much noise outside and so much stuff blowing around. When you see posts on Reddit and Facebook about how horrible the wind, you know it is bad!

Warm, muggy night here. Wind still streaming up from the gulf, saturated with water. About 4hrs before the storms get to me. They seem to have quietened, at least the southern half. Looks like the bad stuff will be in the ohio valley tonight.
weather here in west central missouri today was CRAZY , tornado warning and seriously high winds, for this area (and this may sound crazy) it was picking up yards full of leaves (that were cemented to the ground from winter) and blowing them every which way!) i actually had not see that before, and we have a LOT of high winds, prayers to anyone hit by tornadoes today!
Blowing dust here too, 40mph+ winds!! All died down now
! 83°, was choppy waters on the pool float!

Glad you are safe! The weather sure is crazy this spring!!
Skywarn just went active, it's gonna be a long noisy night.
Nothingburger alert, thunderstorm, back to bed. It won't be long till Teddy and Merlin come out of the bunker.
What interests me most is "How do they know the "safest" spot in the house?"

Tornado watch just issued for my county... until 7am. pretty much the northern half of the state. Yep, gonna be a long night, took a siesta this afternoon on purpose.
The good news, I'm near the southern edge of the watch area. But still have my boots on just in case.

Tornado watch for the county over, skywarn off, back to weather.
First tornado warning near me just issued. The storm line is SW to NE. This warning is north of me. but...
the storm dragging behind is going to cross uncomfortably close, in my county. but I still have another hour to wait before knowing, about 3am.

WOW! A lot of destruction in many areas! Nice weather here in north Texas. Cooler today, 70ish, but much lighter winds!!
