Yikes. That's like Austin, the hottest place I ever lived.View attachment 122048 Horrible: It reached 42ºC. The day before, 41. Today somewhat cooler and to be around 35
Yep. We had mid-70s last week, dropping to 9F this morning, and rebounding later in the week. I'm sure the Polar Vortex will be back our way before too long.Geez,woke up to 9 F today with a high of 62 F Next week end, however, they are predicting 16C. The Mid-Atlantic region has real swings in the winter.
I should be thinking of winter, but what comes to mind is steak and beer.

I went out hiking the morning after that derecho, and the carnage throughout the woods was staggering.The Polar Vortex is like some monster you tell stories about. The weather guys love using these terms they've had for years but never used in public. I'd never heard of a Derecho until one clobbered us in 2012.
Yeah, what's really killing me today in Sydney is the fact it's that hot (well ok, a slightly cooler 38c) yet there's clouds above compressing that heat in!
