A trifle damp here between Omagh and Cookstown, but we still managed a few barbecues. How's it been in the rest of the UK?

Half the UK flooded out on Thursday. The main rail routes to Scotland are still blocked by landslides and they're bussing people round the gap.
It barely rained in our village and we were fine. Then we switched on the radio and heard we were cut off from pretty much everywhere.

Warm and sunny mostly, but very windy. A cool breeze is ok, but the winds really have kicked up a fuss recently. It's still warm enough to sit outside, though.

It's been warm here, with occasional afternoon thundershowers. We had some significant rains a couple of weeks ago, but nothing apocalyptic.
I'm perpetually fascinated to see that every time a news story talks about an event in the Northeastern US, it's about someplace hundreds and hundreds of miles southwest of here. Hope everyone is OK down there.

English isn't much of a language for swearing. When I studied Ancient Greek I was delighted to discover a single word - Rhaphanidosthai - which translates roughly as "Be thou thrust up the fundament with a radish for adultery."

Hell, NYC got nothing from that storm.
"How is it that hardly any major religion has looked at science and concluded, 'This is better than we thought! The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant. God must be even greater than we dreamed'? Instead they say, 'No, no, no! My god is a little god, and I want him to stay that way.'" - Carl Sagan

I heard the storm has knocked out power which means no air conditioning which could be pretty deadly for the old and feeble in the 40 degree heat.
It makes me think though when I am reading a book about the Old West...no air conditioning in those days...apart from the air conditioning Wild Bill Hickok or Captain Jack might give you.

The smoke wafted gently in the breeze across the poop deck and all seemed right in the world.

Another 100 degree day here in Chicago. A reminder to keep your pups cool indoors with ya! We had a guy at work bring in his dog that passed from heat exhaustion while they were running. :-(

Here we have to snuggle up to our dogs (or in my case a half dead hamster) to keep warm!
