Just thought I would let y'all know that there is some interesting weather going on here in (normally) sunny, Southern California. Currently we are experiencing serious thunder and lightning and rain! In September no less!

Just thought I would share.

dreaming of a warm beach......
Here in the middle of Minnesota it is suppose to get up to 83 today. Very unusual warmth for this time of year. You can keep the rain, we've had plenty!

We're suppose to get up in the low 80's here in south east Wisconsin but we could use some steady rain instead of storms.

It's going to be 100 again today and the rest of this week. It's the end of freakin' September, wth!!!!! It is supposed to drop on Saturday, when Rita's outer bands should be in our area.

Lovely, let's hope Rita looses some of her punch. People complain about the weather here in WI but we don't have to worry about hurricanes thank goodness.

I am also in Mid-Wisconsin and it is going to be 83 here too. I agree with Karen we could use a nice rain. More than a sprinkle but less than the pouring pounding rain. I love the cool nights!

Hopefully Rita dies down before hitting anywhere near land. (I know it's just a hope, but heck that's all you can do lately).

It's in the high 60's here today, sunny and gorgeous. It's almost October and we still don't have termination dust on the mountains yet. I guess we're going to have a late winter. It's been nice to have a fall that lasted more than a week though!

Here in Colorado it's beautiful. BUT I did hear that Rita turned into a hurricane this morning - and that the Gulf will intensify the thing. OUCH!!!! Here's to staying safe for all you in her path!

The thunder and lightning woke me up several times last night. I thought I was back in Arizona during monsoon season! I don't know what I like better, the lack of sleep or the 25 mile drive into L.A. that took almost 2 hours.

I'm in Chicago area and it's 10 degrees warmer than normal and 10 inches short on rain. Would love a few days of steady rain and I'm tired of the heat. Where oh where is fall?!?!? We will probably go from 70's and 80's to 40's overnight, then just listen to us all complain

Hope everyone in the gulf area is ok, been a bad year for storms!!!

I hope it doesn't get too cold there soon, I am coming to Chicago in two weeks and would rather not freeze.

Termination dust is the "dusting" of snow that begins on the tops of the mountains surrounding Anchorage (or any other city surrounded by mountains) and works it's way down the mountain to the city. I've heard folks in Colorado use the term too so I know it's not just Alaskan

It begins on the lower mountains and normally comes and goes...then gradually comes down to blanket the city. We call it "termination" because it's the termination of summer
