I'm looking out my windows. To the northwest, it looks like what could possibly be a tornado forming. To the west - looks like what could be a tornado forming.
Meanwhile, on the lake I see two boats. WTF?

It sucks. The wife and I took off work today to do some biking. Had to come up with a plan B.

Probably hit you pretty hard about an hour ago. Was bad in the city for about 20 minutes. Sky is very eerie right now. Have a mix of yellow and orange (due to sunset) to the northwest and dark gray, purple, almost black (due to storm) to the southeast. Cross winds right now.

90 Freakin deegrees and sunny here. Then hard rain for like 30 seconds. Sun is back out and it's steamin up again.

Been so damn humid in my neck of the woods I moved a hose from side of house to the other, and I was completely drenched in sweat by the time I made the trek over.

It's been insane.

[ousdahl]

Dang.

Haven’t hit 80 all summer here. There was a couple weeks in June we thought it was gonna be a hot summer, but now we’ve been consistently getting clouds/maybe some rainstorms in the afternoon, and genuinely chilly evenings. I had to put the comforter back on my bed cuz I was getting cold at night with just a quilt.

Cool stuff. I've tried to get a picture of lightning, never done it on the cell phone.

[Deleted User 141]

Looks like a good day to go boating.

[TDub]

Cool pics gutter.

That doesn't look like the part of chicago I drove through on my way to indiana. Haha

[pdub]

What camera trigger?

[shindig]

Cool pics gutter, is that from your apartment or condo? It's been so freaking muggy here in KC, it's sucks just going out to do simple things. I mowed my front yard this morning around 9:30, and my shirt was completely soaked, and it's a 15 minute job. I need to order some midriff mesh shirts...lol

Keep trying. I'm not much more skilled than a monkey and I am able to do it. Of course Mother Nature has to cooperate.

Finally kind of clearing up. Now it's not a bad day to be on a boat.

It's looking north - the opposite way of Indiana.
I don't have a view of Indiana but I can go up on my rooftop and see Indiana - clearly.
