Line of intense thunderstorms moving thru my area. Experiencing heavy downpour locally. Tornado warning in Sudbury which is west and north of here - has been lifted.

We have as good as no clouds today, and the sun's burning down, temperature's 32° C right now, still rising.





Temperatures past midnight:

Today's expected to be the peak of this week's heatwave with temperatures up to 38° C. Unusual at this time of the year. We normally reach these temperatures in July or August.

13°C and overcast this morning, after a night of thunderstorms and high winds. While walking home after work, I saw this, the result of the high winds last night.

it's a cold wet crappy day on the coast too.

Today is the longest day. I'm sure the overcast conditions will mask the extra minutes of daylight!













A brindle fox was trotting along the opposite footpath. I tried to capture him "on film" but in my haste I clumsily put a thumb in front of the camera lens
After I took the photos, I went to place the rubbish bins at the entrance to our drive. The sound of an approaching car made me look right. Young foxy was standing on the footpath by our wall watching the cars, ready to cross the road when it was safe to do so. He was working his way along the houses searching for food in unsecured rubbish bags and bins.

We will see every minute of it. Not a single cloud in the sky, 24° C at 7:00 am. They've promised us it won't be as hot as yesterday, "only" 33° C.

The students are exhausted because of the heat in the classrooms. :-(

Noon: 32° C

This looks like my place in November. (The weather, not the parking area.)

I woke up to a thunderstorm. I guess it's time for rain again, but we'll not see the sun much. Summer is definitely here - temps will be in the 80s f for a while and occasional thunderstorms are forecast.

This looks and sounds terrible!
I do hope that there will be no casualties.

The news of the Alberta floods is sombre reading. As the news reports advise, there are 2 rivers in the Calgary area, this is bound to extend the flood period and flood risk.

I for one will be following the news.
