WTF is Up with the Weather?!!
Kaleigh's mom works for K-State, and sends along this link to pics of the destruction in Manhattan, KS from Wednesday night's tornado.
http://labrisaphoto.blogspot.com/200...manhattan.html Dam overflow in the Wisconsin Dells...Cedar Rapids under water...tornadoes in record numbers. Is Gaea trying to tell us something?

Pity Iowa can't ship California all that water. We have a place to put it.

UG, I was thinking the same thing. We could use it down in GA as well. Keep the tornados, we have plenty of those.

We had a nasty storm come through in the Chicago area Sunday morning. Between lightning and wind damage, 90,000 home ended up without power. Ours was out for 12 hours. It made for a weird fathers day.

I have been wondering about the weather, too. Hmm.
This was from a storm we saw while in Wichita. The tornado never really formed, but there were several around the area, touching down. We even heard the local tornado alert sirens go off. |

Instead of tornadoes -- apart from the very occasional waterspout; maybe the water's too cool -- we get jiggles.

from what i've read we're (apparently) still melting ice off from the ice age, more water, more moisture in the air, more storms~?
and the less ice there is the faster it melts. (A water world would be cool~) Or we're experiencing a slow start to armageddon. I'll be trying to get washing done and it'll be sunny in the morning and then sudden rain in the afternoon.. and then it'll rain for a week and no clothes... not clean ones anyway. And because the rain is back here,(after 10 year drought) people have built homes in former flood plains.... |

Welcome to the Cellar, Meppin.
No, water world would definitely suck... sharks with candygrams, and all that.

I wonder what folks who lived through the dust bowl would say, if the Cellar had been around back then?
