The Weather.

just when I was about to go out it starts pouring! Definitely waited too long. Weather guy said in the 90's, but now only77 F!
I've run the air more this year than I think any other!
 
We're supposed to have heavy rains the rest of the day and tomorrow!🙄
This was filmed by Unghshu 30 minutes ago. Nothing changed. I'm stuck here. At least, i'm going to take an improvised shower (the shower cabin is here, under the canvas). Also, toilet, and sink, and a chair, and something edible is here too, so i'm fine.😁 They said, it will stop raining soon and restarts at 8p.m. I hope that it will clear up a little at 9.30 p.m., so i could have my daily walk.
In the video, i'm saying: "Well, this is an endless process. I can't even get out of here!"

ETA: i managed to run to the house (and back) and make steeped oregano.

This video plays on Youtube only, so one should click on the link "watch on Youtube" (i didn't find another decent one).
It's SPb :hmm:, which was flooded yesterday after the violent downpour.:pout: Drainage systems didn't make it (as usual), and the water was coming out from the ground. Cars were floating, the vestibule of subway "Avtovo" was flooded, and the ice in sports arena for hockey melted after flows of water beset the roof!
This video also says that after the hurricane in Karachaevo-Cherkessiya, 7 settlements were left without the power, the wind demolished a kindergarten and a few houses.
On 1'13", you can see Krasnodar region. It's a deluge again. As you can see, muddy rivers are wiping everything on their way. I'm glad that i don't live in Krasnodar region (their multiple floods suck). It won't be getting any better: climate change will destroy Krasnodar and people will have to flee (but where??)
SPb and Krasnodar:
P.S.: we're expecting more downpours on Thursday and Friday.

It's going to be another hot day with temps. around 37°C. 39°C tomorrow.🥵

It may get up to 36°C in London today. 🥵
You have us beat. We’re a few degrees cooler. Just woke up to a few booms of thunder. We never got quite as warm as expected the last few days...I mean it was hot in the upper 80’s and we have just hit 90 at one point but the humidity was 67% which made it more bearable.
 
We had mild weather yesterday. It was warmer than on Saturday. It was downpour at ~0.30 though. It's warm and sunny today, but the summer is gone, so it's only 64°F.
They didn't tell on the news about this hurricane in Chelyabinsk city (the border of Siberia and Ural). Lol, after the famous Chelyabinsk meteorite, its citizens consider themselves super tough and brutal.😁 The city is very polluted, unfortunately.
Hurricane in Chelyabinsk on Saturday (they are still working on eliminating the consequences):

This morning we received shocking footages about what happened yesterday in Kirov area. Kirov area is a beautiful region, the land of rivers and lakes,- no wonder tornados like these ones (F2 by Fujita scale, a.k.a. considerable damage) could be born in those water bodies. As i take it, there was more than 1 tornado.
In the video, you can see the tornados and the damage. They say, there were no victims among humans, but a lot of livestock was killed, as it happened mostly in rural area.😢
 
We are in a tropical storm warning for this afternoon into tomorrow. Shouldn’t be too much to be concerned about considering we’ve gotten through hurricanes just fine. But it will be my first storm here...we are very close to the water.
Probably some flooding by the shore.

ETA...actually my timing is off...it’s Tuesday into Wednesday. 🤦‍♀️

I got a notification for the warning for today in my town, but I think they messed up and meant tomorrow. I'll batten down the hatches later. I'm mostly concerned about the wind knocking down trees. How close are you to the water, KLS?

It's been breezy and upper 70's so I went on an errand walk. I was back home no more than 5 minutes when it started to pour 🌧 . I knew I was chancing it, I really hustled :weird:.

The tropical storm was a big nothing here! We got some rain but it wasn't even that windy. I hope the rest of you fare as well!
Today it is cloudy but I think the rain chances are back to normal which means it might rain or it might not! Of course it is hot!

Five miles. We had four (ETA: I originally said it was two but was just outside watering the flowers and saw four stumps lol) trees removed when we moved in and four others trimmed so I’m hoping we’ll be ok with that.
I got an alert, too which is what confused me. Maybe it means the warning started, not that the storm will hit at that time?

Even the hourly only has 60% chance of rain through Wednesday. 🤷‍♀️ I mean 60 is more than half but I’ve had it rain here at 20% and then no rain at 50 lol.
 
I'm near the water. I'm making a trip to Manhattan to visit family in the morning. Then I'll bring the plants in and see what happens with the storm.

A few years ago, in Texas, a tornado touched down a mile from my house in the dead of the night. I heard a horrible cracking sound followed by the sound of gushing liquid, like something being broken open and all kinds of things pouring out. In the morning, there was damage to the shed out back and some street lights had fallen off the lines. I went to the condo complex where it hit. It looked like it had been bombed.

I just thought of that, thinking about how this storm is supposed to be the most intense overnight. It doesn't sound that bad, though.
