Nothing special in my neck of the woods.  A tad cooler than it usually is, but that's it.  the West coast of Canada is pretty same old, same old. 

When I had the weather channel  - I ditched cable years ago for www - anyway, weather channel seems to be into making the weather much scarier and frightening than it really was.  I was near  a box store that was hit by "a tornado.'  Extremely rare in upstate NY.  When i saw the weather channel's take on the event - well, I might as well have been on a different planet. 

They tend to focus on where action is. Right now the midwest is that, record flooding with no end in sight for the rain. This month a record was set for the amount of rainfall. Five inches more than all of last year.

Ross, TWC also has a pretty decent website. I like the videos they have on it, some of them are quite interesting. It also has live radar.

Turned on the weather channel and saw some major flooding in Houston Tx. A months worth of rain in 12 hours. 10.1 inches. There was a report of a dam failing that emptied a lake and washed out a main road. A record was broken that had been set 120 years ago, in 1895 for the month of May. Arizona is 3 inches away from seeting an all time record for the month. Unbelievable. 

In many of these areas the FAA is trying to take weather observation away (this also includes my neck of the woods)

Shows how little they care about safety.

That's crazy. Especially if you live in a high risk area. This morning north of Houston Tx in the space of a few minutes more than 1700 lightning strikes were recorded. 

Trivia: Did you know that the Houston area is larger than the state of Rhode Island. That state has an area of 1400 miles as opposed to 1700 miles for that region of Texas.
