Where I live the historical average high for the today is 71 degrees F with the highest 88 degrees F in 1951. The forecast calls for a high today of 61 degrees F. That's a nice temperature.

I had really scary weather night before last.

A little after midnight, I'd been asleep for about 1/2 an hour, my partner screams, "Wake up, it's a tornado!" He's from a region that doesn't even have thunderstorms, so he always overreacts to them, so I said, "Naaaah." But as I was saying it, I started to wake up a little and I heard the roar... the sound of a train running over the roof of your house. I said, now sufficiently panicked, "C'mon, grab the blanket, let's go sit in the bathtub." We sat in the bathtub, comforter over our heads, shaking and freaking out and worrying about the cats who were hiding under the bed. The roar continued, highlighted by the continual sound of shattering glass. About 10 minutes later, the sounds, in a snap of the fingers, completely stopped. Then, 1 minute later, you could hear a thousand voices outside screaming and shouting and crying. We ran outside. It was completely dark. Everyone was standing on their balconies or on the street looking at the broken limbs and the shattered windows and the downed lightpoles. The glass door to our balcony had been damaged and water was all over the living room. The deck chairs and all my potted plants had been thrown to the ground two stories down. The next day (yesterday), I saw that our car had been PUMMELED by hail, and ugh, I have $1000 deductible on natural damage. About 100 windows in my office building are shattered, and so most of my building is now off-work until they're fixed (NOT ME!, oh what joy). Large billows of insulation are still floating around the city, and thousands of people are still without electricity.

It's lovely today, though.
