You did your best D.,.....But life's a bitch sometimes.

A comfortable 19c so far today,but it will probably rise as the day goes on.

Apparently July/August has recorded the hottest temps.worldwide since records began.
 
Tis lovely here again until later when I hope we get thunder storms.
The hay bag with hay in that I used to give little Dave is now being used by a juvenile hedgie. He trotted into my utility room and made himself at home lol.
 
The word has definitely got round D., you're so lucky,and so are they of course.

Temps up to 23c since this morning,but there's a lovely cooling breeze off the coast.
 
Lots of cloud but little or no rain. All of the rain we were supposed to get took a detour south thru NSW. Brisbane and the gold coast got a good drenching but nothing on the Sunshine coast thus the Sunshine in Sunshine coast I guess. Ron.
 
Sunny day cool night, rising temps over the weekend. Meteorology think this may be our last cold snap for the winter. They have a habit of getting it wrong so I hope we get a tropical snow storm in the next few weeks. Ron.
 
I remember about 30yrs ago we had family visiting from NZ. One of the teenage lads went out back to help my hubby do some work on the car.He lasted 30 minutes at most,and came inside shivering with a bluish tinge to his skin.It was our springtime,late April /early May.Although he was born in the UK,he never came again.

Still grey here but has warmed to a balmy 16c.
 
Oh how I would love a balmy 16°c. It's going to get to 86°f today, with no rain in sight for days. The area where my family got kicked out of for camping at a few weeks due to wildfire nearby is now back open, but the area where most of us ended up is now on fire.😨
 
😨 indeed Sandy thank goodness you werent there now...
Rainy afternoon evening still mild tho. Oh for weather to get its act together n even things out. All these extremes are not good. 💕💕
 
South westerly winds are howling. A lazy wind doesn't go around you blows straight thru you. Very chilly. Ron.
 
We are looking at temps up to 26c this week with the possibility of our first spring storms. Yech summer is almost here. Ron.
 
Bank Holiday week-end.......14c and sun is struggling to come out at 3-35pm.

Ron, our son says the temps in Kalgoorlie haven't gotten above 14c all week and it's been wet and windy.He's suffering,bless him,the big softie.
 
26°c sounds a lot like what it has been around here lately. However, for the next few days it's going to get warmer before it cools off, then gets cold for winter. I think we're in the stage where we trade places, Ron. (Carol, I would like your son's temps.)
 
Carol I have been watching the WA weather. They have had one of their coldest winters ever I think whilst we have had one of our warmest ever on the other side of the country.
I agree sandy , time for a swap.. Ron.
 
Lovely day.16c sunny with a few scudding clouds and a breeze.Off for a cycle when the laundry's done.

Apparently we're to get Hurricane Gaston visiting from USA at the end of the week,let's hope they're wrong.
 
Nice sunny day went for a walk with my friend today.. had a lovely walk but had to do a bear in the woods..and use my porta potty 😨..oh joys of crohns eh !!.sorry if that was tmi..
 
When we go fishing, Mandy (the walk in the woods), it is always close to some sort of "facility," tho sometimes even the walk across the road (at our favorite spot) is difficult. But at least it is cooler there.
It was mid nineties today at home. No fishing involved. help, I'm melting!
 
I wasnt a long way of from some facility .. maybe 5mins walk just knew id not make it, sometimes i can hold on yesterday was not one of them 😕!!!!
Please dont melt Sandy aw it must be too warm for you right now..take care n take it easy .
Dry do far here but it is only 6.15 am lol xxc
 
' Oh for those long past days when we weren't afraid to break wind. It must be the day for reflection. I was laying in bed this morning and I was suddenly overwhelmed by the fact that I will never again have any feeing in my feet and legs. It does not pay to remember too much. Hugs to all Ron.
 
Another bunch of rain has crossed the centre of Australia and will hit us on Saturday. Ps Carol don't know whether you saw it but a mob attacked the kalgoorlie police station today. They busted the place up and some police were injured before order was restored. Ron.

Scott's just texted to tell me to google it.He's at Launceton (?) today working,and missed it.Wonder what it was about.


I've just googled it,and they weren't messing about eh ?
 
I just googled it myself, my, this world has developed some deep seated hostility toward one another.
Today is going to be hotter here, then should start to cool down (again). Autumn would be lovely.
 
Meteologicaly, (sp ?) yesterday was the last day of summer,and I have to say I'm not sorry to see it go. It's a cool 15c,so far today,but will warm up as the day goes on I expect.
Very soon the Xmas crap will find it's way onto the shelves, in a more blatantly obvious way than it has already.......Yipeeeee !!!! I don't think......
 
°88 in Glendale, Arizona at 2:28am. Predicted high of °102 on September 1st. Killer hot summer here this year. The average yearly rainfall here is about 7 inches. This is supposed to be our rainy season right now. A few downpours, but nothing worthwhile so far.
 
Ann, I've missed you! It has been hotter and drier here as well, and the meterologist said last night that there is an 80% chance of a hotter and drier autumn when that happens around our neck of the woods. Bleh!
 
Clouding over today. Rain expected this afternoon and tomorrow. Inland Qld has been getting some really good rain in the past two months. Not flooding rain just good soaking rain that rejuvenates the land. Even the Birdsville races may have to be postponed this weekend due to rain. Ron.
 
First storm of spring last night. Two hours of heavy rain. Floods down in Victoria. Heavy rain and storms swept thru South Australia yesterday. Still cold and wet over in Perth WA. Our temps are rising on the east coast. Ron.
 
Dianne either rip that grape vine out or be a little naughty and eat a few. I have lots of things I am not allowed to eat but sometimes you feel you just have to challenge fate ,I'm sick most of the time anyway, may as well have a satisfying reason, Hugs ron.
 
Grey and damp,but no rain.It's a welcome relief after the humidity of the last few weeks.
But we've been luckier than the south of the country,or not,depending on whether you enjoy sweating,fried brain cells and sleepless nights.Some folks actually pay good money for the privilege of holidaying in hot countries.
 
Three major rain events heading our way over the next six days. Western Qld has had some heavy rain and there are floods in western NSW Victoria and South Australia. It is the wettest winter we have had for years. they believe it is the result of an La-nina like condition in the Indian ocean as opposed to elnino in the Pacific causing drought. This one brings rain that crosses the whole continent. Ron.
 
It's been a cool 14c all day,and grey.Dense fog off the coast, what we up here call sea fret.Couldn't see the sea at all........not complaining though,just saying.
 
I've always loved a good dense fog, probably because it is so mysterious like a good who-done-it novel. We also don't get fog here hardly at all. Smog yes (sigh), fog no. But today is a beautiful balmy day, nice and cool with a beautiful blue sky. My kind of day. :)
 
The sun did come for a short visit at lunchtime but it didn't last, and the fog crept inland and upriver from the coast for the rest of the afternoon.We did manage a bike ride though which was great.Storms forecast tomorrow so thought we'd best make the effort.
 
Wet start,14c. dry now but cloudy.Stormy during the night but I slept through it for the second time this week, so no complaints.
 
Raining flood rain all around the country except here. Nice for a change to miss it. 28c today 29c tomorrow. Lost my little mate today, she was a small black silky terrier cross who looked just like hairy mcLarey in the kids books. She was one month short of nineteen years old. We had to have her put down because of a stomach cancer, her name was Bella. I will miss her. Ron.
 
Ron I'm so sorry at your sad news.I really feel for you.We lost our little lad 18mnths ago and I miss him every day.He was no.8 and the last one.We can no longer cope with the heart ache.......Just get through it best you can my friend,no one can help.Big hugs.
 
Still warm and sunny,darn it.Put the autumn-winter duvet on the bed to soon......Big mistake !!!

Dianne and Ron,hope you're both ok my weather whingers.I've noticed your absence and am beginning to worry.

I was about to say it looks like no-one is having weather anymore, it has been so quiet here lately.

For a change, our weatherman was correct. He told us it would be a roller-coaster weather-wise this week, hot one minute and cold the next. Earlier this week it was an oven baking 95°, right now it is 51°, going to be in the 40s tonight.
 
Eeek! Just heard on the news that we had a small tornado very near here (we were basically unaffected other than rain and PTSD like memories when we had damage from a huge wind storm in Dec 2011 and small unreported tornado that hit our house and ripped 1/3 roof off, roof trusses hit our vehicle and some landed several houses away, and a couple other houses slightly less damaged from tornado but most in area damaged from wind storm itself). There were two other small tornados, one about half an hour away, the other a couple hours away. Parts of the state are also flooding. It is rare that Utah gets tornados at all because of large mountains (the Rockies go right down the length of the state), so what is going on with this?
 
We received very little of the forecast rain, inland Qld NSW and Vic got most of it. A lot of the inland rivers are in flood. My health is on a downer again. My pulse normally sits around 75 it was 43 the other morning and in the low fifties on other days. Always something. Ron.
 
Oh,Diane.I'm exactly the opposite.Hubby says he can feel the hear emanating off me during the night.My Autumn duvet is only 7 tog but is too warm for me.
Another nice day,very unseasonal.Going for a cycle at the coast.
 
At least I have aircon now Carol. One of the feral kids next door chucked a rock thru one of my windows last week .( School hols here , always a period of activity for the miniature terrorists).Ron.

There's too much of that about Ron,I hope they're going to replace it.:ymad:
At a risk of sounding my age,it was never like that in the old days.Kids got into mischief of course,but we had respect for people and a fear of a clip round the ear from parents,teachers and police.I blame the parents.Those kids will grow up soon enough and move on,be patient hahaha.:sign0085:

Cool 14c and grey....no complaints.The family are away to Shark Bay, (AUS.)camping for two weeks.
 
Nice day here and just took my campervan to the fire station for charity car wash day. I'm going to have two duvets this winter. I have absolutely no regrets moving away from troublesome children in Bude.
 
They have eight children under twelve next door. I sometimes wonder if I was a really bad person in a previous life.Ron.
 
They have eight children under twelve next door. ...

:eek:

We are lucky in our current neighborhood, really good kids, (even in the family down the street with 10 kids) for the most part. In fact, I think they are better than my generation. The US and world as a whole, however, frightens me how entitled people are nowadays.

Beautiful fall day here.
 
50f with rain forcast for most of the day 😕

I feel that kids are getting away with far too much and no punishments . They seem to have more rights then we do as parents now. I got a slap if is was naughty and didnt do as i was told. I dont think it did me any harm at all.
 
Cool 12-14c,raining now.When I opened the bedroom windows first thing,there was a
little woosh of cold air....and so it begins !!! Sorry D.
 
Major flooding in central western NSW. More rain coming for inland NSW and Victoria plus some follow up rain for central southern Qld. None of it is coming from the east , it is all travelling across Australia from the Indian ocean. Very little of it is reaching the east coast. Ron.
 
13c and a slight dampness in the air.Looks windy from in here.Not a bike day, so going to a little market town and hours drive away (Morpeth) for a look round the shops and some lunch
 
Raining as i wait at hodpital gor Gi app that was for 10.10am. Mmmm no change there then. Just had to nip out n re do my parking payment. Outragous that you have to pay parking at a hospital 😠
 
That's my lot tomorrow Mandy. My neph has shifted digs to a new private hospital down at the coast. It will take me 45 minutes to get there and I am not sure if there is any parking at all there. I am so sick of doctors . One of the major causes of death in Australia is suicide. I am starting to wonder if it is not a sadistic plot hatched by doctors to cull the chronically ill. They sure don't seem to help of heaven forbid ,cure too many.Ron.
 
Over here as in most countries,we are encouraged to eat healthy,exercise,don't smoke or drink etc.etc. and when you do that and reach a ripe old age,you're accused of "bed blocking" or being a strain on resources if you need help in your later years.Instead of a pension,why don't they just dish out ,suicide pills and keep all the toe rags and young "mothers" with 3 or 4 kids,in the fashion they think they're entitled to....hahaha see what you've started Ron ?.Got out quite nice this arvo.20c. and sunny.
 
Wow, different places sure behave differently with their cultures. I don't want to add fuel to the fire so I won't say more in this regard, except I'm glad we don't have to pay for parking at hospitals (at least in Utah, I don't know about elsewhere in the US).
I will also add that it is a cooler today, not unseasonably warm like yesterday, so I'm happy as I go out to do a couple errands. Just wish I didn't have to go out, except to do some yard work. Our gardens need some weeds pulled, and I won't have the energy when I am back. Maybe I will just have to sit in the sun on the comfy chairs in the back patio. :)
 
Bit of a grizzley day here untill sun popped out for a wee while late afternoon.
Paid for an hours parking and had to go and pay for another hour coz i was still waiting. Got to see gi about ten mins after doing that and was in n out in about 5mins. 😕
 
A really dull day that started with me putting my heating on. So much chill in the air mornings and evenings. Will put my leccy blanket on soon, not to mention a load of blankets on top of my duvets, and the fleecy sheets/pillowcases and the fluffy jim jams too. Carol though, would do without all that and appreciate the nippy weather lol. Oh did I forget to mention thermal vests? They only came off on a few occasions this year.
I shouldn't complain, i'm not floodable, nor do I suffer tornadoes, hurricanes or earthquakes. I should be more grateful.
 
Not much change here.!5c and grey.It looks like the sun might show up sometime,but it might not.....I agree with D. about how lucky we are to all of you in USA & AUSTRALIA and beyond.We don't often have extremes in the UK we just think we do because we're never prepared.
 
The biggest storm in half a century hit South Australia today. It was a combination of thunder storm combined with a 100 kph cold front. The entire state suffered an electrical blackout, no power anywhere. I have never seen that anywhere before. Towns cities but never a whole state. Scary stuff. Lots of rain as well and it is heading for the flooded area of NSW and Vic.Ron.
 
Never a good sign when insurance company send their broker instructions on how to lodge the storm claims before the storm has arrived.

Quite warm here, the storm hasn't hit Melboune yet.
 
I hope you can dodge the worst of it Catherine. I feel sorry for the folks up in the Riverina and up around Forbes. I fear they may be in the middle of an inland sea for ages. Ron.
 
Oh, Catherine and Ron, stay safe! You'll be in my prayers.
I have to add for the benefit of those in the UK, that I had never experienced or even heard of a tornado around here until about the time I joined the forum. 🤔 Although Utah is supposedly prone to earthquakes, in my lifetime there has never been serious damage from one anywhere near where I live, I have felt a couple light ones (where most people didn't and no reported damage) tho they say we are due "for the big one" here along the Wasatch front (Salt Lake metropolitan area and a little north and south). Hope I never see it.
Today it is going to get back to about 80°f, again a little too warm for my liking, but not terrible.
 
Lovely autumn day here , blue skies with some white clouds and a nice breeze blowing the trees .
 
Same over here T.,BUT, according to the long range forecast we're to expect below zero temps. and four months of snow this winter.They are probably wrong as is usual,but it's a possibility........Time to hibernate with Dave's gang Diane !!!
 
I dont think I could face a bad winter , have to start looking for ways to get to albufeira if it gets that cold .
 
Still a mess down in the southern states particularly south Australia and southern central NSW.We are expecting rain up in Qld tomorrow but nothing serious I hope. I fixed my window yesterday so at least I won't leak.. Ron.
 
Just Woke to a sunny sunday morning. Hoping it stays that way. Got my grandson today so may get to have a walk if it does.

Stay safe everyone :ghug:
