Another round of heavy rain…
Started around 5pm and still a heavy downpour 45 minutes later 
They just issued a Flash Flood Warning for my locale!

Well the current temperature should be a comfortable 73 degrees except the Dew Point is around 70 and the Humidity is 96% so it feels like a tropical rain forest instead 
Off and on rain is in the forecast throughout the day so I’ll just stay inside in the comfortable AC 
Now we’ve got a thunderstorm moving through… Pretty good downpours with this one as well and a Flash Flood Watch has been issued once again

Our old front that brought us heavy rains this past weekend is parking over the Gulf and could try and spin up a little tropical something… A lot depends on where an actual low tries to form. Any wiggles of the front north will bring heavier rains into coastal parts.
The rain will carry northeastward into the Carolinas starting tomorrow (Wednesday) through the weekend. Rain estimates around 2" currently but could be more or less depending on where the front meanders…

91 today, then low to mid 80’s for the next week, very few clouds, low chance of rain. A rather mild July so far compared to the past four or five years.

Today’s high is supposed to be 32°C that’s a pretty hot day anyway but after weeks of unseasonably wet weather it’s going to feel crazy hot today

Starting Saturday, hot and humid every day and every night apparently forever.
Obviously these kinds of temperatures are but a mere trifle to many of you, but as a denizen of a temperate, windswept island this forecast strikes pure fear in my heart. Rumour is the temperature in That There London could get to 40, which is basically apocalyptic.
Rail companies are already issuing notices to the effect of ‘yeah, everything is going to break sorry’. I think we should just shut the country for a week.

We got 4.21" of rain between 2:30 am and 9 am. Good thing we live in sand country! Also very happy the power came back on at 6:30.

Very, very humid. But temps in the 80’s for the next week is far better than the 90+ days we often get around now. It’s been the mildest summer in years. Now that there’s sun, my blueberries are finally ripening.

And we got about 1.2" here, one county to the East.

Dry and high 80s / low 90s for the last 7 days. Same tomorrow, then thunderstorms on Sunday. Can’t get here soon enough; this warm dry spell has allowed pollen and other allergens to build up and my sinuses, both lower and upper, can’t wait. They’re all tender and throbby, which makes my whole face hurt. I hate “concrete face.”

Still in California
(This is actually cooler than usual for us this time of year, but not freakishly so)

Sorry, I think you’ve been sent my weather by mistake
EDIT: although they do seem to have forgotten to include the ‘wait, where did this f*cking thunderstorm come from’ upgrade. AGAIN.

Thunderstorm? What’s a thunderstorm? The only weather I know is constant, unrelenting direct sun.

That’s what we’ve been having here too, except for the occasional storm that blows through, drops enough rain in 10 minutes to float an Ark, and then the sun comes out again and it all evaporates before it can soak into the ground, and the humidity goes up to 150%.

We’ll, they’re like this……
…… but substitute ‘water’ for ‘sun’. Most commonly experienced when the forecast says ‘15% chance of precipitation’ and you dress and plan your day accordingly.
