Monday it was 8 degrees, toinight we are having a tornado warning

Talk about bizarre weather.

i don't know if i can top a tornado warning but...

we had about five inches of snow the other day
then freezing rain--ice everywhere including on the snow (hard for dogs to walk through, i'm afraid my dog was going to cut her legs)
today it started warming up--high around 43 (this was friday) but by friday night dense fog and fog advisory--o'hare airport was measuring visibility in feet rather than quarter mile, dupage airport visibility 0.0%!

starting in a few hours we will be having severe thunderstorms, saturday will warm up to 57 degrees by afternoon with heavy rain. saturday night cools off and by 5 am sunday we will be at 26 degrees with snow.

oh, and we have flood warnings that are beginning due to melting snow.

talk about psycho weather!

Here in NW Indiana, they aren't using salt on most of the roads. My street still has a couple inches of ice on it, but I'm sure it'll be gone by tomorrow - it's supposed to be 65 degrees!

I see lightning in the sky.

My sister had a house built where it never rained, or lightly. So she said.


Last week, and the week before, mud was coming into the windows of a car parked across the street.
Her house got hit, bad.

It never changes. Be safe in those tornado warnings, nothing to take lightly there.

The first is right across the street from my house around Lawson Garden. The second is on the U of I campus behind the Kibbie Dome, and the third is below WSU sort of past the skate part and that playground area where all the baseball fields are.

Here are a ton of my other Palouse photos: http://www.palousephoto.net/gallery/6052198_CtY9R#441455700_vRkbk

I really like the blue sky & white clouds with the white snow in the first one.

and the Spring St area? Lawson is at the top of that hill.

Tornadoes...

Three been coming, big time...

Dog, scraping at the back door...

Wake up, face down.

No dog.

No house...

Me...

the thunder is deafening


and you know how much I love this weather...NOT...

I can remember a time a few years back where it got so hot in January that we were actually sweating, and then 24 hours later we were shivering.

yesterday morning, 30 degrees, this morning 60, with a high of 75 predicted.

I'm watching the radar pretty intently, which is why I'm up so early on Saturday morning. We have a big storm front headed toward us.

We're supposed to get it later. We actually slept with the windows open last night.

Stay safe everyone

It lasted for about a half hour in full tilt mode. It was enough to have water come in from my balcony, and that's never leaked before. This rain wasn't just tilting sideways, it was nearly horizontal. The wind is howling like crazy right now.

And then there's the flash flood warnings with the extra rain and snow and ice melting, and then there's tomorrow- when it's going to snow again. This month has just been crazy.

Metro-Chicago has seen every range of the weather spectrum. The wind is howling like crazy right now. Snow expected by morning.

Earlier today it was 59 degrees Fahrenheit w/barely any wind.

:crazy: crazy weather - schizophrenic actually!

this morning it was 50 and raining. Just another beautiful day in the Pacific Northwest (and an awesome Big Business song, now that I think about it!).
