Just listening to the news ... 85% of British Columbia on fire alert! What happened to the Wet Coast weather .... and I guess some of that hot air mass slipped over the Rockies and into Alberta, where it met with cooler air and generated some monster storms with winds at over 100 km/hr .... one storm hit a country music festival, blew down the main stage: at least one person killed, and quite a few critical linjuries. Weather gone wild.

Yep , the west coast (North America , not Blackpool) has been weird this year ,in my area we have had rain sprinkles, unheard of in July, clouds and fog not clearing until about noon and low 70s temps , Oregon and Washington seeing high temps never seen before
 
Been hot and humid here for a couple of weeks .... don't like it one goddamned bit ...

A few tornados touched down in Ontario in the past couple of days ....

Might catch the tail end of hurricane Bill in a couple of days ....
 
My grandson is spending the weekend in Toronto then moving on to Niagra Falls.
I hope it keeps fine for both of you

Thanks hon, might have thundershowers tomorrow, but it looks like a nice weekend coming up with temps in the low 20s .... as we speak, the humidex here is 39c ... dog days.:mad: Fall is just around the corner. The trees will turn, and we will have our version of the Illuminations .... love fall, my favorite season of the year:theband: Our weather is better when the wind is from the north or northwest ... good clean Canadian air ... when it comes from the south we get the cruddy pollution from the US, esp the coal fired generating plants in Ohio.
 
Holy faeces ... there is a tornado warning out for Kingston and Prince Edward county:eek: .... I'll send you guys a postcard from Oz:D
 
Tornado warning is over .... Toronto got hit pretty bad with storms and torrential rain ... 50mm in one hour .... town of Vaughan, north of TO declared a state of emergency, over 200 homes badly damaged ... we had quite the storm, but it looks like it's over for now ... still under a major thunderstorm warning for the rest of the night.
 
Just seen pics of Vaughan on the news .... roofs missing, barns flying through the air, trees uprooted, automobiles rolled down the street .... and no one was hurt!!!! Amazing.

Well at least Ossy has its good points Eric, we don't get that kind of weather, well not quite that is:rolleyes:
 
And now it looks like Hurricane Bill will hit Atlantic Canada on Sunday ... seems like it will arrive as a category 2. Looks like it will get wild and wet on the Rock.
 
On Sunday my Daughter flies out after her holiday here in the UK. For the last 5 years she has lived in Vietnam, but is now moving to Zhuhai in China, I just happened to mention to her yesterday about this new place and I said it isn't near where all the bad weather has been lately, quite calmly she said ya right in the middle:eek::eek::eek:

I've just looked on google earth.
Be thankful that she is well away from, and not downstream of, Three Gorges Dam

What gorgeous weather we are having! Bright, sunny, nice breeze off the lake, going down to the low teens at night .... ah:mosher: And it will last though the week. Soon the trees will start to turn .... can't wait for Fall; beautiful season .... and hockey starts soon .... and the hunting seasons open up; and the fishing is still great .... will probably go out for duck and geese; but I think that this year I will shoot deer with my camera (finally decided to buy a good one, and to use it for something other than gathering dust).

I look out of my window and see the Tinker brook has risen by fifteen foot overnight, after all this torrential rain.
