pouring here

Thunder around 5 this morning....pouring rain a minute ago, but has now stopped. Very grey, damp, dismal.....

thunder here right now

Had rain and a bit of thunder earlier. Got 0.12 inch of rain. Now it's cloudy and 61. 85% humidity.

Survived the tornado warnings last night. No touch downs here, possible one to the west of us . SIL lost power last night. Cats weren't happy about spending time in the basement(normally not allowed down there).
Today 50 and very windy.

Rain here thunder a couple of times early morning & later this morning. Sorry to lose time in the garden as yesterday was a loss, due to a death in the family & having to cordinate flight arrangements with DH & our daughter to CO. Did have a chance to look over part of the garden, but not do anything.

been raining here off and on all day, sometimes down pours. It's an inside baking day.^_^

Gloom and doom
ZINGER

Victor - I would call her Mrs Googley Eyes

Rained on the way north about 45mins away on my way to a funeral. Came out of church and it was bright and sunny.

Came home asked hubby if it had rained "NOPE"

Extremely windy here.

nice Sherrie!!!.... I am guessing my one bottle feeder is going to be empty by morning.. every time the wind blows.. I see drip drip drip

Rain missed us, but the WIND - WOW! I wonder if I held some fabric across my back I could fly?

What about a turbo broom also?

So windy I couldn't work outside.....too much stuff flying around, getting into my eyes.

Tree fell down on a line 2 roads over from us. Got to see a transformer fire on the way home from church

nasty out there.. I attempted to go out in the yard today.. forget it... the latch that holds the greenhouse door open snapped ... Randy came to my aid toot sweet... and hooked up a bungee cord

wind yesterday and snow last night

OMG... still windy here even though they canceled the advisory ... 44 now going to 57

41° Windy, but bright

38* now and very sunny, high today will only reach 52

windy out

47 and windy. Crazy the past day.

52*F still windy. Had a fair rain Friday night. Holly didn't want me to move the flats from the garage this AM. She was afraid they would blow away. Ric

Still windy here....kept me awake half the night...also very cold! Do not like this spring weather, I want to go back to the 70s we had.

Windy ...mixed with rain here and there, 48* and very raw!

It's been gusty three of the last four days (the non windy day was the rainy one), and it's starting to make me stir crazy. I can't stand to watch the plants get thrashed around, and it's just too annoying to even try and work out there when it's windy. The neighbors pretty tree blew down, too.

I know, it's been terrible....no gardening here :(

Oh man!!! I got so caught up in my son's visit that I didn't realize that the wind chill would get to my coleus, even though I had them and all the impatiens, tomatoes and other annuals tucked up next to the wall of the house on our front porch. When my son left, I noticed that the coleus are all limp from the wind and cold. Two were brand new big plants and the rest were small pieces I brought back from Fla. I hate to lose plants because of my own negligence! Everything else has been brought in because tonight it will be in the 20s with very cold wind chill. The next three nights will be frigid as well. On the bright side, Mother's Day was very nice and my son's dog, Donnie, and our two little ones had a ball together. I hope all the other Moms had a great day too!

Glad you enjoyed your day, Louise....hopefully the coleus will revive! I'm so glad I haven't planted anything too tender.

Me too, Marilyn. I hope the heat in the house will bring back the coleus, but it doesn't look good so far.

Sorry to hear, Louise. Ludicrous weather this spring. Might have to bring some plants back in too. Glad I did not plant the new JM's yet. Aside form the mechanical stress of the high wind, the transpiration rate soars in these conditions.

Crazy, crazy wind. I have more tree branches down. Small ones this time, thank goodness.
Hope your tenders make a comeback Louise!

Feels like early March out there. Very raw and mostly cloudy now. 47 and still windy.
