Use Kelvin, it looks more consistent.

True, but I really can't convert K to F, or F to K more or less in my head.

Use the mom scale.  That's the number of sweaters you need to wear until mom no longer feels cold

Well, it's been 1 or 1.5 these last few of mornings, raising to "tee shirt" in the afternoons.

I'm feeling like crap. This may be why

I have body aches due to the rain. Taken meds for them but they don't seem to be working. Going to lay down in the bed and read. Might nap if I stop hurting, but I'm not really seeing that happening. It's forecast to rain until 1:00 PM Tuesday. Really not gruntled by this at all.

[mlooney 3,417]

34% chance of rain forecast for about 9:00 PM. Based on how my knees feel, It's going to rain.

[mlooney 3,417]

Yeah, forecast of 33-38% chance of rain from about 9:00 PM until 9:00 AM tomorrow.  Going to be a night of suck.  Like I said, my knees feel like it's going to rain.  Will see.

[mlooney 3,417]

Rain forecast to stop about 9:00.  I hope so, getting tired of body aches.

[mlooney 3,417]

The rain is over. My knees have started to not hurt. Next forecast front rolls in next Friday. Hoping that his is one of the fronts that Weather Underground miss forecasts.

Watching the weather maps from the National Hurricane Center and I am amazed to see that the places likely to be affected by Hurricane Martin are Greenland, Ireland, and Scotland.

I  hope this doesn't cause undue panic

[mlooney 3,417]

Scotland getting hurricanes.  Not good.

[Darth Fluffy 302]

Not to suppress the overall weirdness of the event, but take note, it is no longer a hurricane, it is likely to loose energy being that far north (although global warming seems to blame for why it hasn't lost it faster), and it will most likely cross Ireland before it hits any of Great Britain.

A bit weirder than the one that hit Canada? Or maybe not, this one follows the Gulf Stream.

And why da eff did they use an equator-centered Mercator projection for a map of the north Atlantic?

Because icosahedron based maps aren't mainstream yet.

Makes the dick aimed at Ireland look bigger.

Tomorrow afternoon and evening is going to suck.    Actually it may start to suck before then.  16% or better chance of rain starting about 11:00 PM tonight, then about 11::00 AM tomorrow we get thunderstorms with a peak about 3:00 PM.   So far no body aches due to the front, but I'm sure that will happen soon enough.

What are you sensitive to? The pressure? Is a relocation an option? You might like New Mexico.

Yeah pressure changes.  And relocation isn't really an option.  The high parts of New Mexico is one of the short list of places I'd move to if I could.

Current forecast is 99% chance of rain staring at 2:00 PM.  Really less than gruntled by this.  Analgesics seem to be working so far.

[mlooney 3,417]

Up to 100% chance of rain around 5:00 PM with a good chance of thunderstorms starting at 3:00 PM.  My knees and lower back are telling me rain soon.

[mlooney 3,417]

"Thunder in the Vicinity"  Not quite raining here.  The radar map  shows the rain  being a couple miles to the west.

[mlooney 3,417]

Thunderstorm here. Forecast to last until 9:00 PM. Less than thrilled. Not gruntled at all.

[Darth Fluffy 302]

Very gruntled about our weather today, warm, like late summer, should last all weekend. Went walking in nature this AM.

[mlooney 3,417]

Weather's not bad today, a bit cooler that I like, but not cold.  It's forecast to get below freezing later this week.  I'll find out how to use an electric blanket with a weighed blanket then.
