It was a great sunny day today. I spent a good chunk of my day in the pool. So now im going what suddenly the wind picked up big time like knock you down windy and its cloudy. No rain yet but im guessing a storms on its way. It was just weird and out of the blue. Gonna turn the news on see whats coming.
So ever have the weather just change on you like that? And hows the weather in your area right now?

I live in Southern Indiana and we have had rain for the biggest part of the day now the sun has came out. So it is reversed of what you have had for the day. So I am going to go and cut the grass even though I know the grass is still wet. Don't know when I will get to it otherwise.

Sorry can't say that I do want to cut your grass. Got the back cut now have to cut the front. I already cut my cousin's grass that lives next door when I cut grass. So two yards is more than plenty to cut.

Its been a beautiful day today. In the 80's, we have had lots of clouds too. The last few days have been cool. I am a nutty gramma, I have 6 boys in my yard in and out of the pool. Plus they are playing basketball. The pool water is cold right now, its only 70 degress. Its even cold to the kids. Last week it got up to 84 degress.

I wouldn't trust the news these days. Last week they said it was going to rain all weekend - Friday through Sunday. I was dreading sitting through my kids' soccer tournament in the rain. It didn't rain. In fact I got a sunburn. The thunder, lightning and rain began at 5pm on Sunday just as we were heading home.
Last night's news said it was going to rain until Tuesday when there would be sunshine. That included today. Today was sunny, no rain. The news I saw on the TV at the bank said rain Saturday and Sunday only. I don't think they can predict a darn thing!
Here's hoping we have a nice sunny weekend! It's still sunny here now at 6:30pm.

The weather is really crazy here today. It started out a beautiful day with a blue sky maybe a few clouds. Then it turned gray, all shades of gray and stormed. The sky then turned blue again, just beautiful. Now we are having more storms. The temps in the low 80's. Not much wind though.

Well, it rained here today.. It is supposed to be a 50% chance of rain tomorrow.. So, I guess it will rain almost half of the day, here in Sumter, and where ever else it will rain.. It was very sunny today, then it cleared up... This weather is very tricky here..

Usually we get thunderstorms in the evening but the other day in the middle of sunny afternoon with blue skies we got a doosie of a storm. Teeming rain (which we badly needed) thunder lightning and really bad winds. There was quite a lot of damage caused and a tornado was spotted not too far from where I live. Today is HOT and sunny!

Yes, it is weird when the weather changes like that. I have seen it do that a lot. Usually it is either in the winter when a cold front is moving in or in the summer time when a storm is getting close.
It is mostly sunny here, hot and very dry. We need rain really bad.

Right now it's beautiful and sunny with no chance of rain. But yesterday my kids came over from Austin to swim in the pool here and called to say they would be over for supper. They no sooner called and the weather channel said there were possible sever thunderstorms on the way.....it never did rain.

Welcome to southern california! Monday it started right off at 102* and reached 106* yesterday, Friday! Today it will drop to 97*and for the next few days. This is what the news calls a "cooling trend"!!
ANd that is only what the news says - most of the time it is hotter than that cause of all the heat retention things like how close you are to the freeways and traffic - both genereating a huge supply of heat! Or tall buliding that absorbe and then emit heat in areas where there is no air to blow it around and away!

Our weather is great now but is going to get hot again next week.. When it gets hot here in Tennessee there is always a chance of thunderstorms.. We did have a few horrible storms last week.. My mother passed away a year ago last Feb, but she always worried about one of the huge trees that was in her front yard falling and destroying her home of 30 years.. Well when one of the storms came up last week, sure enough, one of the trees fell across her old house and destroyed it.. All from the wind, lightening and rain.. It was horrible to see it as the tree went in at the exact spot that she always sat in her chair watching TV.. On the same day we were at the grocery store when the storm came up and as we were leaving the store, we heard lightening strike and a horribly loud boom.. Before we got out of the parking lot, we saw all of the black smoke, so we went to see what happened, it was only 2 blocks away.. Lightening had struck a house and it was eaten up by the flames.. No one got hurt, but the home was almost destroyed and all of these things happened in the blink of an eye.. We do get a variety of weather here..

It was rainy and cloudy all day. It's clearing up now but they say there is more on the way.
Here I have hardly ever seen sudden weather changes. It has to blow very hard to bring in storm clouds that quickly. Where I come from the hills are higher, it can come sudden.
I hope you have nothing bad coming your way. There was enough flooding everywhere to last me for at least a decade;)

well, in the place where i live now, we can have 4 different weathers in one day as well... sunny, cloudy, raining and cold in one day altogether... it is really hard to decide what clothes to wear as i don't know what the weather will be like... and the weather man can be wrong sometimes... it is really very frustruating... take care and have a nice day...

I don't know what is happening lately. When i was little the weather was so nice in the summer, not too hot, not to cold. It was perfect. Now every summer is very very hot. over 40 degrees C. Also lately the days are very hot, and the nights are rainy. It rains almost every night and during the day it's very hot. it's so weird.

I am here in Florida and it has NOT stopped raining in like 2 weeks. We really did need though and our Lake Okeechobee finally got the proper amount of water for the season. However, I am a beach person and I also have a pool in my backyard and I cant go to the beach or swim and it is driving me NUTS!!
