The Weather Thread

I'd love it if a mall and a bunch of vapid consumers were destroyed by a tornado.

I'd love a rainy day.

We are farging baking down here. Sunny and a hundred every day.

Clearly, it's time for y'all to secede.

or how about just delaware in general

A lot of people are bitching about this gloomy weather...I'm loving it. No idea why.

anytime there isnt beating down sun in the summer is a good thing

This weather blows. I love a good storm once a week but this raining every day shtein sucks.

Also, if there was a tornado at Christiana Mall, I'm pretty sure that's the 3rd tornado in like the last 2-3 weeks Delaware has seen.

Didn't even have a drop of rain the past two days at my place.  I'm getting tired of watering the garden.

An extreme US summer that has featured floods and heavy rains in the east and drought and devastating fires in the west boasts yet one more bizarre weather pattern: a backward moving storm system.

As of last week, a strong frontal boundary had swept into the southeastern US bringing with it another dose of heavy rains and storms. Then the system stalled. Over Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the front and associated low pressure systems have backed up, moving from east to west, passing over the Appalachians, then the Tennessee River Valley, then the Mississippi, until today it reached a central region stretching from Texas all the way north to the Dakotas.

This retrograde weather is a very uncommon, but not unheard of, event. In the context of an already strange summer, it adds yet one more anomalous weather pattern to the list.

I noticed that with the rain here last week. It was coming off the Atlantic and moving NW. We had some rain the other day that was moving directly south to north, strange but not that strange for this area.

It's so hot and humid my balls are sticking to my leg

[ice grillin you]

I dont know how you do it

[Rome]

It was 98 degrees and the humidity was soul crushing here today.

Of course when it's 30 degrees there it's 65 here, so it's a trade off.

My school district has taken control of the A/C from the principals.  It's been damn hot in our building all year - probably about 80+ in the afternoon.

And, of course, the district office (built from a former mall, so it's huge) can double as a meat locket it's so cold.

Money. That's the sole reason.

They tried that shtein with us.  We hacked the code in no time and reset the temp from max cold from 78 to 72.    farg em.
