I'm very familiar with that sort of graphic. We call it the "May through September in St. Louis Graph."

Very unusual for Vegas though

Death Valley record, for wettest day.

While Las Vegas Valley has been pretty much unaffected by Hilary, the western mountains (Spring Mountains, Mt Charleston) are a different story. Major flooding, road washouts.

Is this the thread where I can complain about my Crazy Sister, who moved to Florida after living in the U.S. Midwest for 60+ years on the sole premise that "the weather is nicer down there"?

Las Vegas gets a new waterpark?

Pretty crazy what's going down for the Burning Man festival. There are, I believe, 70k+ people stranded w/ people getting disease similar to what WW1 soldiers dealt with in the trenches.

It won't get REALLY crazy until the peyote runs out.

ETA: The good-er news is ... they reopened the roads on Monday.

Hurricane Idalia blows flamingos as far as Ohio

Flamboyances were reported across eastern US after the hurricane blew them in from the Caribbean.

Apparently Idalia blew flamingos as far north as Ohio. Heh.

I don't know if we have any people from the Northwest Territories but I hope you guys will be okay.

Canada wildfire: Evacuees flee Yellowknife as fire nears northern city

Thousands of residents crowded roads and airports as a wildfire threatens the city's outskirts.

I'm from Yellowknife. Just got back on Monday evening after 18 days away. The evacuation order should be lifted by tomorrow afternoon.

It was crazy. We're all safe, so is the city. Mind you, other towns here in the north got shelled pretty good and some are still at risk.

Crazy start of September heat wave here in the North East. 4th day in a row over temps in the 31 to 35 range with humidex temp of about 40. Dogs don't want to go out for long they come right back in after doing their business...malamutes love the winter but not fans of the summer.

You have dogs with a business? You must be rich!

Not often that you see a Category 5 Hurricane.

Lee is certainly a big boy, if it does in fact stay close to the coast and not out to sea because of the jetstream, I'm prediction that Nova Scotia will be it's target.

As a Nova Scotian I'm hoping this prediction goes about as good as your Barbie Movie prediction.

Still obsessing over that chick flick?

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Looks like my prediction might be correct. Heading right to Nova Scotia. Though it will probably only be a Cat 1-2 by then.

@Lady Stanley ... So what NOAA is telling us is that "Crazy Weather" is no longer crazy - it's becoming the norm. /thread
