ausfire Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Seems that there are weather events everywhere that are causing heartache and tragedy. Prayers and thoughts to the people of Texas dealing with horrific tornadoes. And the folks suffering in England with unprecedented flooding in Yorkshire and Lancashire. Here in Australia we are dealing with cyclonic rain in the Territory causing evacuations of towns like Daly River, while in the south, 150 homes have been consumed by bushfires around Adelaide. I hope wherever you're spending the Christmas holiday period, you are safe and well, and let's think about those who are not so fortunate at this time. Best wishes to our Texas members facing some challenging times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Weather's good here, nothing special. I say a few words for everyone in harm's way every time I think about it. The weather channel is non-stop scary. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Most snow my Father has seen down here in 20+ years. I crossed the border today only to learn that the factory was closed. Should be melted off before the New Year's---mid 40's degF most the rest of the week during the day and of course the patented NM blinding sun...

notownkid Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Just talked with my daughter in MO, west of St L. a town near her Union is flooded and cut off, her mining company had to close yesterday when the water came over the road, no idea when she will get back to work or what they will find, here is hoping they reopen!

Stevens said: She is fighting a nasty infection called humanity As we have paved over all the soaking-in ground and built houses on all the flood plains I tend to agree! We spent Christmas in Ilkley and it was marooned for a couple of days...the connecting roads run alongside the river. Luckily we were staying in a house on Panorama Drive, which as the name suggests, is high enough up onto the moor to have extensive views...and keep your feet dry. The view below us of the town, flooded water meadows and stationary traffic was impressive however. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
