Its not going to rain. oh no. It is pouring.But it said sunny.??

hi chang yes when I was young I was living in South Dakota here in the US. And one time we went to a neighboring town to a movie the sun wes shinning and a perfect day. when we came out it was pouring down rain even with that clear skies and sunshine. a regular cloud burst.I guess weather forecasting is s till not'an exact science.

Yes,I reckon whether weather forecasting is exact or not depends on advances in other sciences.

hi "Ernnesto yes I think you ha ve a point. Southern California usually has mild weather even in winter but this year from Dec right on til now February the mornings have been down to almost freezing which is unusual for our state. and some days the highs have not got above 50 or 55 which again is cooler than usual.I for one am looking forward to April and spring and warmer weather here.

hi derek last summer it was predicted that July would be hotter than usual but came July it was pleasant and warm but no really hot days. August started out that way to and it was this time]predicted we would have an unusually cool month.wrong again as it got into the nineties then one hundred and stayed there most of the month. same with September instead of cooler it was in then nineties again.then October came predicted more hot weather, the whole month was unseasonably cold for Southern California.so long range weather forecasting was just a guessing game

hi yangalong wow you already have a thousand points so good going yes most of the time they are fairly right but it would help if they were just a bit more accuare all the time. but I have learned that deep black skies ushet in rain quickly so 'am prepared by that.

typ0 should be accurate not accuare darn

Which do you trust more, dark skies or forecasters? When it gets very dark in the sky, I usually get necessary stuffs ready in the trunk of my motorbike. Just to be on the safe side.

Now you made me want a fresh hot doughnut.. I do not even remember the last time I had one.

wow GardenGery now I am longing for a hot fresh doughnut too, guess its contagious. well its about time for me to close'down mylot for the night so I do have some chocolates thoughloll good bight all.

Doughnuts I love eating it with coffee too! Love to have it on a cold day!

hi leocan here in California I have seen days when it was predicted sunny and very mild then wham a few black clouds]and I walked out of a store and got drenched. It w as a cloud burst seemingly centered over Larwin Square.In two hours the storm stopped just like that and the sun was blazing down and it was'hot and steamy. go figure the weather forecast had not predicted any rain at all. And during that rain it felt like freezing as I headed for the doughnut shop. I was shivering and drenched. I ordered a large coffee and a bears claw.Instead she gave me a huge cup of coffee with that delicious bears claw pastry.She never charged me more than just a large coffee.that hot coffee really'took the chill off of me.

Hi GardenGerty you are so right and I am sure they do get paid quite well too. The rain poured but it did not last very long then it was colder than ever .all week its been colder than usual for this month in Southern California. I had the feeling if it got just a little colder it would snow.lol

hi Elicbxn its s till raining but quietly now and I think thats the rain that really soaks in . I just hope those feral kittens and cats out there find shelter.A Group to help feral cats was supposed to come and find them homes. But they have yet to show up.These are cats and kittens that someone owned then decided they did not want them. several purebred cats in the mix.I saw two siamese and one maltese and several tabby cats in the mix.

All our "Siamese" marked cats are rescues, Star and Ronnie are also semi-ferals.

hi again ElicBxn you know we residents are told not to touch those cats but somone should rescue them as they are all so cute and so hungry and so homeless. A pox on whoever abandoned all of them.ONe resident attempted to catch one and really got clawed badly so now we are told to stay away.As a cat lover and animal lover, it hurts to see them out here looking for food. I think the Vietnamese who own the store next to us do give them left over fish hand outs. but they seen so thin and hungry to me. su ch a same.

hi youless you are so right. I looked for this storm on Monday as it said 80 percent chance of rain so the sun shone all day. so when it clouded up today and the forecast said sunny i just thought the sun will be out shortly but no it got blacker and blacker then]oit was pouring.So one never really knows fpr sure.

i jazel juan seems to me like the Philippines have had some horrendous weather lately.I hope its now settled down into more stable weather conditions. Its super cold here this morning and its southern California.

hi maezee yes they do make a lot of errors b ut we can sort of]predict by the looks of t he sky if its a certainty it is going to rain. then I just dress accordingly.The storm] has left tonight and seemed moving down towards the Pacific Ocean.We got some rain for awhile but it was soon done with

hi jaiho its so cold its unbelievable this sunny Southern California morning.I went back to bed ans slept for an hour then my roomies sister and brother in law came to see her so here I am back on the mylot again. yes without the black clouds its hard to know if it going to rain.

hi joystick yes the same here. I can guess more accurately than they can figure it out on their machinery. I can then dress appropriately ;lol

hi shinDarkfox yes it really is then too it has never been an exact science but sometimes they get pretty close. but again I can see when it going to rain with my own eyes,nose and some common sense too. lol also when the black clouds blot out all sun and the wind starts really blowing I think it has a huge probability] of rainl lol

hi lilaclady yes it is true and some places do get it right most of the time., but this week it was all screwed up. but we do need the rain so our forests will be greener this fall and not so likely to burn unless we get arsoists again.

hi mr pearl not much better here so I rely on looking at the sky and the clouds and the ground. black clouds blotting out all the sky\to me says its going to rain. lol. common sense I guess but they try I suppose. lol

hi sassybrat yes I hate that,we were supposed to have a group that saved feral cats come and get tthem homes but so far nobody'has helped any of them. the owners here do not want us feeding them. I feel helpless and wonder where they did find shelter. why do people buy pets then get tired ofd their ca or kitten and just dump it? wrong so wrong.At least the rain fin ally has come and it is really doing a great jor.lol

hi artauxeo welcome to mylot. I well research that as it sounds really interestingl HAARP okay love to learn new things all the time and mylots a good place for that. I can imagine it could be both good and bad . thanks for telling me.
