Beryl (Read 1122 times)

She's back out to sea now, dumping some rain on us. She's supposed to strengthen then get pushed harmlessly out into the Atlantic. Our early heat wave broke last night, thankfully.

The weather bureau says this will be an average year for hurricanes. Believe it or not I don't have a guess. The weather's got me baffled these days.

Posts: 9442 Gender:	Re: Beryl Reply #24 - Jun 27^th, 2012, 4:47pm It looks like Debbie is headed out to sea now so she won't be a factor in the Delaware Valley's weather. We've got a God-awful heat wave on the way starting tomorrow and there's no end in sight to it. I'll have to start getting up at 5:00 AM to walk the Huskies before it gets too hot.

Amen to that. I need to hit the lottery and move way north. My friend Del was at the vets about a week ago with his dog for a check up during one of the very hot days from the last spell. Another patient had been jogging in the morning (it was still very hot, like 90 F. already) with his two year old black Lab. The dog was brought in with a temperature of 110 and it died in the office. All dogs, not just Huskies, suffer in the heat. Take care of your beasts.

It's still stinking hot. The day before yesterday we had two monster thunderstorms here.. one in the morning and one late at night. Maximum lightning with plenty of hail, wind, and rain. We're OK but our local electric company still has over 200,000 customers without power and it's 97 F. here. It looks like there's another of those big storms headed our way maybe late tonight or in the wee hours. It's in Ohio and has to cross Pennsylvania yet. I'm not all that afraid of storms but loosing power would really suck.

Posts: 9442 Gender:	Re: Beryl Reply #28 - Jul 4^th, 2012, 5:10pm Good Lord, there still 30,000 homes without power in New Jersey from last Friday's twin monster storms. It's been going into the high 90's every day since. It was the real deal here in the Northeast. It's supposed to go up to 100 F. on Saturday. Hopefully their power will be back on by then.
