    Albuquerque is going through fall fast this year. Two weeks ago we all needed our swamp (evaporative) coolers because the highs were grazing the 80s F. I had to shut down and de-water 5 coolers, mine and neighbors, in short order because we went to grazing freezing at night a few days ago. Anyone up for fried green tomatoes? Don't know what else to do with them.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    Right now, as I lay in my brand new, cosy bed, it is blowing an absolute gale. I fully expect the bins to go flying any moment now...

    It has been a long time since we have had El Nino weather in the US. Long enough that I forgot. It's a large area of warmer water in the Pacific that changes weather patterns a lot here in North America. Am wondering if this is making weather goofy this year in other parts of the world too.

    Thank you for the reply, I think your probably right in your assumption, we tend to get the same weather about two weeks later from the states. Kit

    In Austin, Texas we tend to have 6 months of summer (80-100 F.) and 6 months of autumn - spring. Summer ended about a week ago.

    http://www.horningsc.co.uk/
    Click on Regatta Week, web cams.

    That's if some club member doesn't hit the wrong off switch again!!!

    Steady rain, more than an inch expected today, some minor flooding in some local river basins. A good day to spend time with a cat and a book.
