I was lucky on 3 counts, though there was a lot of it, it was small hail, almost none fell at my place, and I was out doing some shopping, the FJ was in an undercover carpark.

I got a good show though, people were going nuts trying to get the cars into the carpark, it was gridlock, a bunch of people were driving in through the exits, so no one could get in or out, lots of pointing, shouting, and blasts of horns. It was hilarious.

Yeah it's getting to the point where a hail proof car cover could come in hand, I cringe at all the people that film car's getting absolutely destroyed.

You got lucky!
 
Nice but DRY. Have to say we need the rain. Grass is browning up in the neighborhood. I chose not to cut this weekend. Did not grow that much and too dry.
 
Dry dry dry. As someone who doesn't garden, I don't mind it. Weather like this means less road film on the car and easier, less frequent washing. Clean car weather. Must've been tons of ground water because we are on day 10 or 11 without a single drop of rain and my yard is still as green as could be.

Local weather-types are referring to this as a "flash drought" which is a new term for me. Hot and sunny, mostly, but comfortably cooler down here on the lakefront.

Wow. Actually the last rain recorded in my area was May 19th. Didn't realize it was THAT long since. Apparently it's in the forecast this coming week but we shall see.

Smoke “eclipse” from the wildfires up in Canada.

Hey you Canadians… Put that SH!T out already. You’re blocking my damn sun!


Seriously though, it’s a pretty bad situation up there.
I hope everyone up there stays safe.

Wow, sharp eyesight there, yes, you can just make out the single black line left on the road on Saturday night. I don't know about you, but I'd be embarrassed leaving a single black line like that.

Its been cloudy down here for a couple days now, like its going to rain but nothing.

Have you seen the satilite video/imagery of all that up there? One day nothing...then the next poof all these little smoke spots started sparatically all over at the same time. Almost intentional? All in the name of "climate emergency".

We went through the same thing November 2019 - January 2020. Fires all over the country, Sydney was surrounded. It was right when we were looking for our new house, we rejected even looking in certain areas due to bushfire danger. There was heavy smoke in the air for weeks. A lot of a certain type of person wearing masks and complaining about the air quality, funny thing, those same type of people refused to wear masks and complained about "stuff" during covid. That fire season burned 243000 square km, that's almost 94000 square miles.

Yeah i vaguely remember you talking about fires back then. Thats sad how much wildlife/land or people/property was lost.

Are thinking those fires were intentional? I dont know anything about what happened with that in your country.

I wont comment on anything else as i think we think differently on the other topics and its probly best not to reginite that arguement lol

Most were natural, lightning strikes for example, some were accidental, farmers welding carelessly or campers careless with fires, but some were deliberate, and that's either arsonists or dumb kids.

We need more controlled burn offs, to reduce the fuel load. Our first nations peoples have been doing it for thousands of years, both for hunting and fuel load reduction. Certain regions now use their knowledge, at least where they're still on their original lands.

On the other thing, yeah I shouldn't have made that comment, we could go too far and get ourselves suspended or banned.

This guy aint worried about suspension/being banned lol. Its all just free speech brother, we aint breaking no laws here.

Controlled burns is exactly how it should be done. Dont know about in your country, but in ours to many enviromentalist people wont let the contolled burns happen. Its completely unfortunate
