Jangles Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Batten down the hatches, it's going to be a rough night! http://www.bom.gov.a...gs/severe.shtml It hit here on the south coast around 2 this morning and we're still getting blasted now. Cyclonic like torrential rain and incredibly strong winds. The noise was deafening, not only from the rain and wind, but the massive waves as well, not to mention what felt like every part of my house being rattled to the core. King tide due up tonight, so that'll cause some low lying flooding too. It's been a rough 19 hours though, bit scarey at times, but it has eased a little. Should pass here by about midday tomorrow they predict. Good luck .... batten down and stay safe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JuliaFinch Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Yesterday it was raining cats and dogs here and it was freezing...and today it's sunny (no clouds at all) and terribly hot! I wonder what the following days will bring... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fool In The Rain 60 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Here in the UK we are having a Summer Storm, with 70 mph winds and the threat of flash flooding... Well at least the hose pipe ban will be lifted.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jahfin Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Not that I'm complaining but unseasonably cool. Usually during this time of year in North Carolina it's hot and humid. I'm sure those days are coming though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strider Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Perfect. Absolutely 80° F. perfect. To illustrate, here's some photos I just snapped strolling along Sunset Blvd. near the Chateau Marmont, where Led Zeppelin stayed in 1969. The house on the top of the hill in the last two photos is the "Iron Man" house. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats on ending the school year! We're having the same weather as you - rainy. Although the sun did come out long enough to mow the lawn earlier. More rain on the way though.

chillumpuffer Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Summer is officially cancelled until 2013 (assuming we are still here). It is cold, wet and miserable. I still have the heating on and i've just chopped some wood for the burner. I am seriously considering renaging on a sworn oath that I will not be visitng Spain or Portugal this year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LedZeppfan77 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 90 and I have the AC on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chillumpuffer Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 90 and I have the AC on. Fuck knows and i have the wood burner going. I met a girl once from Rochester when i was working in Jersey (Channel Islands). She was well fit. But unfortunately for me she didn't dig hippies Quote Link to post Share on other sites

joe (Liverpool) Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 At last it's sunny here in Liverpool, the dog keeps coming in to get cool. It's not exactly hot but he has a coaton and he's moulting like hell. I lrave the door to the garden open for him but every time he hears the kids next door playing he goes beserk running around in circles.Still they say it's a dogs life.. He has a great life. sleeps, eats, walks and shits.Sleeps being his main pastime, he hates the rain so he's in and out today he doesn't lay in the shade he lays in the sun.
