What a difference 50 minutes makes...
« on: November 09, 2008, 04:00:02 PM »
I walked into work at 2 and it was bright and sunny out with a few scattered clouds. No ominous clouds in the distance or anything.

Now it's dark, thundering, and pouring down rain.

Weirdness. :confused:

Wow -- that is strange.  Doesn't that usually happen in Summertime?

I think the Hurricane over Cuba is affecting the Gulf wind patterns, which is affecting your weather.

Yeah, it's very monsoon-like, which is odd since those ended in August.

Maybe it's a metaphor for Obamalamadingdong's presidency. It's here and gone in a flash with little damage done.

Maybe? Can I hope? Change? Si se puede? Eek!

We had rain in Nevada the past couple of days. Less then 1.5 inches of rain for the entire year!

What people call "monsoon" here, I call a light sprinkle and low humdity...but I am also used to the storms of the Midwest and constant 90% humidity.

Here if the humidity hits 12% they call it high...

I'm just waiting for the snow to hit here in NH.  It's coming, just a matter of time.
