Some town here in Alberta (Cardson, 80 miles away) got base ball size hail and smashed everything in sight yesterday, windshields all broke... Today we had Plus 30 degrees C or 85 F, currently under severe Thunderstorm watch, nothing happening so far, Poppy will alert me if one gets close. :)

Had a little thundershower very early this morning, it was funny, cause I was up at 4 am, sitting on the deck, it got very muggy and humid, then I could smell the rain coming, and Poppy demanded to be let in, went in the house and then all of a sudden I could hear the rain coming down. Didn't hear the thunder until after it rained.

We have managed to have almost 7 inches or rain since july first, this summer we have green grass! The last two it has been brown from may on. The last bad storms broke up before they hit our house, but we did get another 1/4 inch of rain! YEAH!

Got a feeling someone is going to get the crap beat out of their garden :eek:.... severe storm warnings again for several areas close by. I can see the dark clouds gathering to the south east. Temp is currently 90 in the shade, winds calm right now, barometer dropping. Famous last words... I think it's going to just miss us!

yeh pretty until a fence goes down and you have cows every where .Farm country with cows and goats and now we have a new breed to contend with ostriches .We just had people who bought a farm here and they have them and llamas .llamas spit and ostriches bite .I go for my walk I walk on the other side of the road as I am never sure when one is lurking some where behind the shrubs .

He He sissy we have Alpaca's and those red haired woolly mammoth looking cattle here but they don't escape from their fences. Had a couple Emu's running around here once. Beef cattle and horses get loose once in awhile and man are they hard to catch. I was surprised how high a cow can jump!

Gonna be 72* here and sunny................man I think I am in Heaven :razz:
