At 1345, in Va. Beach, Va. the temp is 82F. Sky is very cloudy, slight
breeze blowing. Chance of rain is 70% (YEA !). We are 13 inches BELOW
average for the year, in rainfall.
And that's our problem. Australia is experiencing the worst drought in living memory. Children in some areas of Australia aged 7 years have never seen rain in their lives. The Government is now even offering farmers financial incentives to 'give up' farming. Desperate times and not likely to get better in a hurry-depression/suicide is on the rise in rural areas. Very sad.
Well I woke up today to the first real snow but it has all melted since. About 40 minutes from here they got about 2 feet of snow. We are supposed to get hit pretty big in the next week.
Well today the temps were about 4 C and the weather was terrible because of the Orkan that hit in the Baltic Sea last night. The snow became rain and hail all day. There has been some flooding in the low lying areas and there was lots of heavy wind and rain and hail.
Tomorrow it is supposed to be colder and snow for the next 3 days.
