Storming...

We're having a thunderstorm right now in my part of Missouri. There is a lot of lightning/thunder and pouring rain. There is also a lot of really strong winds (18 mph with gusts up to 35 mph). I heard our trash bin scooting across the yard and ran out and dragged it up against the house so it wouldn't go visiting the neighbors. The storms are supposed to continue until after 8 am today with more storms moving through this afternoon. The temp is 63F/17C at 3:45 am. The predicted high for today is 65F/18C. What's happening in your part of the world today?

I hope everything is okay at your house with no flooding. This is the time of year when we get a lot of storms moving across the US from West to East and tornadoes are born from the storm winds. You can come visit today and enjoy the storms with lightning and thunder with us.

@DaddyEvil Yes, another dry and hot summer season ahead. With that huge drop in temperature, are you fearful of more ice? I hope that you remain to stay safe, the forecast is obviously incorrect for this storm.

@Juliaacv No, we're not cold enough for it to ice over. It's about 13C right now. Thanks. The storm stopped but it's still cloudy and nasty looking outside.

Thank you. We're fine but the storm rages on. It just hailed and then started storming harder. The forecast suggests the storms will be over by around 8 am. Which it is that time now and they aren't gone yet. We just had an 8 degree F drop in the temp in the last hour. It's getting chilly outside. I'm glad you aren't getting bad storms. Rain is always good, especially since the prediction for the US and Canada is for an unusually dry summer this year.

Thank you. I'm sure everything will be fine here. I've got the curtains on my bedroom windows drawn back so I can watch the lightning flash and the rain pour down. I hope you have a lovely day.

Looks like quite a tough time for you. I hope that you are safe and sound. Here we had a few days when the mercury almost touched 40 C. Yet cooler winds have moderated it to a bit. The worrying part is the lack of rains since almost 1.5 months. It does not rains much in February and March yet it is not almost rainless as well. Perhaps not a much bright indicator !

Wow! That is already HOT in your part of the world! I hope you get some rain soon! The advanced predictions here are that we'll have a long, hot summer with little rainfall. I'm not looking forward to that.

Everything is fine here, thank you. The wind just likes to make noise against the house. We just had a cold day here with the high today being 50F/10C. It's still cloudy and we're supposed to have more storms starting early in the morning and going for the next several days. I hope you get some cool breezes soon.

Sometimes the winds make the garbage can go across the street or even down the street. I once found it by the neighbors door across the street. And that was after I looked for it and couldn’t find it.

The winds here usually try to take all the trash cans on our street into a field at the end of the street. When that happens, I gather up all the trash cans and bring them back into our yard and the neighbors can just get their trash cans here without having to chase into the field for them. (Our house is next to the last one on the street.) Don't you love chasing your trash can around?

You got really lucky, in my opinion. We keep getting new storm cells moving through and just got some good sized hail. I opened the curtains in my bedroom and watched the hail bounce off the windows and sidewalk in front of the house. None of the weather apps on my laptop or phone are showing how much rain we've gotten during the night. I'd really like to know. Edit to add: We just dropped 8 degrees in about an hour from 63F to 55F.

We’ll be getting storms later. A meteorologist from Tulsa posted a video of storm winds so strong they moved a plane. NOT a little prop “learn to fly” thing, a commercial jet. Wowza.

I believe I saw that clip on a YT video I was watching. I'm glad we didn't get a tornado warning during the storms. I hope nobody sees tornadoes from these storms. We had a thick fog for a while after it stopped raining this morning but the fog is gone and the sun is shining now.

Bright sunshine most days. I would say it is the calm before the storm - hurricane season starts in June. I am hoping this year it won't cause much damage.

The bright sunshine most days sounds nice... We're in tornado season right now. We had tornado watches during the night but none were spotted. I hope you don't see any hurricanes this season. Good luck!
