Okay, here's an awesome one:

It's 103 degrees, sunny and snowing.  :lol:


There's some kind of air current just popping over the ridge to the West condensing just enough moisture out at high altitude to create flakes but not enough to make clouds. Then the elevation drops right down to my neighborhood. I thought it might be hail at first, but definitely flakes.

It was a beautiful forecast.

Chuck in the long dusk and dawns and honestly it's too much, currently I'm getting to sleep in time for light to fill the sky about 1 1/4 hours later.  :hmm:

123mm of rain today in Toronto, and still raining, shattering previous records. Out where I am, 50km east, we barely felt a drop  :D


so far.... :ph34r:

Out where I work there was a lot of noise, but little rain, and by the time I got home there was no rain here either, but somewhere in-between something must have happened because there were down traffic lights and a fucked up transit system.
