Cloudy and gloomy day but at least it's not raining, course they're predicting more rain tonight.

All this rain has cratered my drive way so I guess I'll have to get the old 8N out and do some blading, but
first I'm going shooting.

our run of carbon copy weather forecast in central NC for a high of 96 and 0% chance of precipitation for today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow .... there is some talk of a cool front moving in over the weekend .... sure hope that proves to be accurate .... yet another morning where we will be rather quickly switching from coffee to iced tea

48° morning wake up temps, and high of 64° for the day I guess. No rain, and back to the grindstone.....

It was a tense evening yesterday with the huge tornado on the ground in Linwood, KS. My daughter drove home from Lawrence, KS and went quite close to Linwood on I-70 as she headed to KCMO. Basically, her drive home somewhat aligned with the storm's slow travel.

Then the tornado cell activity headed our way, turning on warning sirens all along its path. We spent time in our basement, and grateful the tornado pulled up into the clouds and missed our area. The city next door, Gladstone, was a "target" on the news/weather. After it went by, we watched subsequent reporting as it headed NE toward Liberty and Kearney, MO where it again dropped into a rotation on the ground.

The most unusual impact for us was the extreme early evening darkness, and as the tornado cell went nearby, we had 1-1/2" of rain within less than 15 minutes. Surprisingly and gratefully very little impact for such a tense evening.

Both my daughter and I have a lot of friends in Lawrence, KS, and also in the rural areas near where the tornado hit. Her former landlords live in the rural Linwood area, and said all was fine at their home, but the tornado wiped out other homes/structures less than one mile from their home.

Yes, 'twas a tense evening for many KS/MO folk along the wide Missouri. Thank God for minimal injuries reported today.

Sun is out temporarily here headed to 60. Rained last night again. Glad all is well PT at your house anyway. Its been a strange spring so far.

55° this morning , heading on the way to 87° I guess. Good chance of rain froecasted, and I actually hope we do get some.

I was able to watch one tornado destroy parts of a neighboring town when I was really young, and I hope that I never get to do that again.

Morning fellas, 71° here and looks like the worst of the storm went north of us.
We may get a shower later, having a new rire put on the scooter today.
Should be some nice riding weather here this afternoon.

One of my friends has a 1922 Henderson similar to the bike in your pic. It’s fun to watch him ride it with all the moving parts flying around!

Great pic of Tom Mix. I have several of his silent westerns on DVD. Many have been lost to time and the disintegration of old film.

Overcast here, we are blessed to have had rain yesterday and last night. Mouch of Alberta is buried under thick smoke from northern fires. Everything here this morning is soaking wet.

Tae in Henry mug, then off to the dump with the weekly load of trash. Maybe shoot later.

our streak of record or near record highs has apparently come to an end .... a "cold" front has moved through and dripped the temp (right now) to 91 .. .. and brought with it an 80% chance of strong thunderstorms for later this evening .... we could use the ran but not the other things that can come with a strong thunderstorm .... iced tea is once again the order of the day

[RanchRoper]

We are getting smoke now. Hundreds of thousands of acres on fire in northern Alberta. 10,000 people evacuated.

[JEBar]

we've been following news coverage of that huge and growing fire .... in thinking back, other large fires have hit your general area .... are they very common ?

[RanchRoper]

Seem to get our share.

[PT7]

Fires in Alberta area, pouring rain/flooding in MO & KS.
The "middle ground" has to be somewhere....maybe it's between here and there.

Pray you don't have a repeat of last year.
