Re: What's it doing outside your window?
We've had pretty much everything this morning - wind, heavy rain, bit of hail, rumble of thunder, and some snow in some areas, oh and a brief bit of sunshine too!

Re: What's it doing outside your window?
Dry today, but it really poured yesterday afternoon, plus a HUGE clap of thunder right overhead. Poor kitty was sitting in the window and got an unpleasant surprise :/
At home with a good book and the cat...

- Interest in HF: started in childhood with the classics, which, IMHO are HF even if they were contemporary when written.
- Favourite HF book: Prince of Foxes, by Samuel Shellabarger
- Preferred HF: Currently prefer 1600 and earlier, but I'll read anything that keeps me turning the page.

It's not raining much down here in Cali--barely up to normal. Where is that promised El Nino?

Woke up to a light snowfall this morning! It had started as I left work last night.

A bit wild yesterday. Some arresting video here: http://www.oregonlive.com/weather/index ... rt_gallery
Dunno how I'd react over the waves pouring onto the ferry, but I wouldn't have been out there anyway, there was plenty of warning.

It's pretty sunny now. The weather has been partly cloudy, but still mostly warm lately.
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!
