Windy


Bookmark and Share



There's a cold front on the way, so even the deep southwest can get cold. Today's high about 71F, but it is really windy! Gusts out of the southwest at 30+ MPH.

Currently 58F, expected high 71F. But it feels colder because of the wind chill.

The weather at Latitude 41.901439

In the northern latitude where we spend about 7 months of the year, we find ourselves on the cusp of warm and cold fronts. That makes for some interesting weather during the warm weather months. One day it's 65F and the next it's 85F.

This, I have concluded, is why man invented air conditioning.

However, when those cold fronts move down from the north the skies turn clear blue, the humidity falls and the nights are very cool. On other days the fronts move northward, the humidity skyrockets to 85-90% and the thunderstorms commence as the front moves by.

A couple of days ago we were treated to a sudden shift in weather as a warm front moved northward. Rain began at about 4:00am and by 7:00 we not only had a significant downpour, but then we were treated to hail. However, a few hours later the sun dried it all out and we biked to the lakefront and discovered that the sun worshippers were at the beach. As this weather "tug of war" goes on, we also get some wonderful rainbows.

Storms are all a part of RVing




Bookmark and Share




We drive through sunshine and sometimes through storms. Its all a part of trekking. Here is one long afternoon and evening driving through a fairly nasty thunderstorm.

We made it fine and this was certainly better than snow, sleet or ice.
