Business has been super slow at the dealership. Partially because of the weather I'd assume and gas being close to $5/Gallon.
How are you liking the new 5 series? Pretty big jump from the E90 isn't it.

The high peaked at 81F, and there's popup t-storms on the radar scope within 50 miles in every direction right now. The National Weather Service issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for us until 8:00 PM, and the local media is all sensationalizing possible tornadoes.....

Frost advisory near 0°C for this evening and overnight. I'll have to bring all my flower pots in the garage and cover my veggie boxes.

It's pouring. Already drenched twice- once during my 40 min walk with the dogs and again running into the building at work.

Where's our rain?

We desperately need it here in California.

Shortly after my post we got a "Severe Thunder Storm Warning" on the cell/tv.

Last less than a hour but... I got a dozen (probably more when I go in) trees down in the backyard forest line but no damage to the house or garage.

Drove in town to pick-up a pizza, the 10 minutes ride turn into 30 minutes as no trafic light were working and the Main Street was block. A few millions worth of damage.

120,000 without power. The generator kit in 4 hours ago. I don't think the power will be back today.

Maybe I'm going crazy, but I thought that Sky News said that Spain was having a heat wave and Germany was seeing tornadoes?

I also saw a report that Michigan had a tornado rip through a town where the NWS has their regional radar station.....
