In addition Michigan had 18 inches of snow and Wisconsin had 22 inches of snow. Now that is a little unusual for this time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Litwitlou Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Rain today, rain tomorrow, more rain on Thursday. The Yankees may get a game in sometime but don't hold your breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talisman Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 It's been a lovely day here, just the sort I like, with temperatures in the mid teens and a nice fresh breeze. Just perfect for sitting out for lunch with my Kindle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggle not Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 The tornadoes that hit on Sunday were pretty devastating. Two elementary schools had the entire roof blown off. Good thing it was Sunday or there may have been hundreds and hundreds of kids killed. Approx. 20 homes were leveled and about 80 homes were damaged so bad they are not livable. Trees down all over, cars upended, and 20,000 people are without electricity. All schools are still closed. They are trying to make arrangements for the kids in the two elementary schools for attending elsewhere for the remainder of the school year.

That is a big problem. and will probably only get worse when they start re-building the damaged homes not even considering the clean-up required.

Raven Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Really feels like the first day of Sprummer* today. *It's too late for the first day of Spring, too early for the first day of Summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Yes it's very warm, typically stuck at work in one of the most polluted parts of the country, hope it lasts til the weekend so I can get some Vitamin D! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talisman Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Hope those affected by the tornado are all okay. We have had beautiful weather today - it was definitely shorts weather and I wore mine with pride at work today. I love my job on days like this as there are so few places that allow you to wear shorts like we all do, and not that many either where you have a lovely garden to spend time in.

chesilbeach Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 After a VERY foggy and a bit cool start to the day, it actually ended up being sunny and warm. Looks like more of the same tomorrow, then summer will be over and it'll back to autumnal weather again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
