Winter warning for today, but mostly cold, rainy, and some parts flooding. Catch up on phone for Memorial-reminder-day. Done. My son in Maine said he has heavy snowing. My youngest son in Texas has had fires in his area. Lotta weather going on. I read it is meteorologist day.

We have been suffering some heat for the past few weeks on the east coast, but now we are being warned that we should be braciing ourselves  for possible flashflooding on the east coast.

 

 

We had a abnormally warm March

Summer won't go away here. Still in the 30s and no rain. Everything is drying up. 

 

Meanwhile my brother who is on his first ever trip to Australia, is stuck in Dubai. His connecting flight to Australia was cancelled due to hurricane Hannah which is currently hitting UAE.

And now we know why we are having en endless summer here in Western Australia, while the East coast is drenching. All records are broken, with the hottest and driest 6 months Oct to March since the 1890’s, with only 22 mls ave rainfall.

 

“During the same period the city's average maximum temperature has been 30.7 degrees Celsius, an incredible 3.4C above normal and also a record.

 

This April has only prolonged the trend with Perth's highs averaging 30.0C, a full 5C above normal and 5C above Taree's temperatures at the same latitude on the east coast.

 

The record dry spell also continues – the city's rain gauge has collected just 1mm this month, well short of the April average of 43mm.”

 

I remember pioneering in April with umbrellas due to the rain. And it’s all due to a high pressure system stuck just below WA which blows winds from the desert - the dreaded “easterlies”. Which is why our cart witnessing is really challenging! 🤣

 

This high pressure causes the winds to blow from the south (Antartica) to the southern states, and so that part of Australia is suffering from much colder temps.
