I saw the first thread was locked so here goes part 2.
Here in northern Ohio in the month of May we've had the latest measurable snowfall ever, followed by the earliest ever rainfall from a subtropical system. May 11th saw an official snowfall of 0.2 inches at the airport but places like my home and especially those on the east side saw a bit to a lot more. Then yesterday, what was left of tropical storm Bertha passed just east of Ohio and dropped some rain.
It has been one wet spring here. The backyard was looking like a swamp/jungle until I just sucked it up and cut the whole thing with a weed whacker. Been trying to get some much needed painting done but between the cold weather and rain/snow it was a no go. Now going to have to wait until the midge season is over in about 2 weeks.
Meanwhile my friend over in Scotland says it's been one of the most pleasant springs he can remember. And over in Prague I see they are in the midst of a catastrophic drought.
The Atlantic hurricane season is forecast to be an active one.
https://www.foxnews.com/us/2020-atlantic-hurricane-season-forecast-tropical-storms-activity-noaaIt's been 15 years since Katrina and that several year spell of active hurricane seasons. I'm a firm believer that these things are cyclical so we are about due for a couple of years of storms. Hopefully I'm wrong.
What's the point of an open door policy if inside the open door sits a closed mind?
