Whats your weather right now?

Rather inhospitable for the morning drive from Rockford to Baraboo: 35F and a light sleet:yikes: (see the roof on that random car?)

Today is a wonderful spring day here in Northern Norway. Blue skies, still snow on the mountains and fields. Warm enough to have breakfast and enjoy a mug of coffee on my East facing deck/ porch. Even did some plinking with my CZ .22 rifle from the porch. Nice to live out in the sticks some days 😁

Well, it's dark, warm, and pretty. Owls hoot. Pretty soon rooster's crow. Absolutelytotallybitchen weather, here, in Anoxia. Cops are busy chasing the dopers. But no high speed pursuits, yet...there's still hope! Alas, no gunfire.
Best!

I live in the sticks too. I couldn't live anywhere else. Beautiful photo! Oh yeah, 60F this A.M., High of 80F, windy with blue skies and low humidity, a rarity around here.
 
Well, I think Spring has arrived. The cherry tree certainly puts on a show at this time of year:

Love it Raymond, but if it’s like the one I had it will drop every petal within two weeks and out comes the garden blower/sucker thingy. Beautiful but short lived.

Yes, those petals got to come down and be swept or blown. Some years, lasts a few weeks but if we have wind and rain, could be gone all too soon. Still, lasts longer than an orgasm.
 
As I sit here right now, Saturday lunchtime, torrential rain. Real proper rain. Straight down, instant puddles, sound of rushing water, thunder of rain on the roof. True thunder half-an-hour ago as this lot was gradually darking the sky.

Glad I'm sat in here listening to it . . .
 
The Kings Coronation has just ended; and so has the rain.......

In Wales the Sun has just peeked out from the clouds and the roads are drying up.
British weather has the best timing around.
God Save the King.... and all that!
 
Weather has been wonderful, lots of cool, northwest low humidity has been coming in over the last week......I'm a'fearing all our good weather days are hitting at once and we'll be left with a year of wtf's.
On the coronation......
He's a Charles. King Charles. Is he the third?
Doing some Ancestry research.
The multiple G grandfather in my avatar married Sarah Clement back in the late 1700's. Lots of English Quakers in that ancestral line, came over in the 1600's to Pennsylvania and New Jersey. One of Sarah Clements G grandfathers was Gordon Clement. Gordon was one of around fifty parliamentarians that signed the death warrant for Charles l during the English civil war. That worked ok until Charles ll got the throne. Seems Gordon was sought out, charged, convicted and then hung, drawn and quartered for his involvement. Not sure what all is done in that but seems like it could be a bit messy......

Great summary of background information there.
King Charles is indeed the third of that name.
Let’s hope this is a turning point for the world across many social, economic and ecological fronts. By god we need it.
