Computer ate half my video project that was due yesterday :cry: so time for bed.
Oh no Ms. Packmancreeks hopefully it's backed up somewhere.
It's currently plus 8c with rain just starting at the pond in south Sardis.

I wonder where Mr. M is usually he checks in once a week in the off season.
Was sure he'd be around during this winter like spring, must be busy with the business.

Those are so cool. The Wetcoasts answer to tornados :lol: :lol:
I once saw a decent "intensity" one..maybe a DD4 rating :think: it was several meters across and even survived cars driving trough it. Some people driving looked afraid like they were in a tornado :lol:
It was quite impressive though, picking up decently heavy objects and launching them up the funnel :clap:
And here it is..December 2024 all snow geeks have been waiting for :silent: ..with the LR weather "charts" calling for a cold and snowy month. Where's the troffing? :silent: :silent:

When we inevitably get a heat event, run for the hills or fly if you can. It's going to be a ride.

I got to experience some large ones as a teen in New Mexico. On a day with light breezes, suddenly severe dust storm conditions in 80 km/h winds. Then in a minute or two, back to light breezes.

Mild compared to a tornado, but the sudden violence of it all gave me an impression of how dangerous and destructive a tornado must be.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Not here, barely a breeze to report.

A few power outages on BC Hydro though so some areas must be getting wind.
