Heatstroke kills 16 in India as temperatures climb https://phys.org/news/2026-05-heatstroke-india-temperatures-climb.html
I have been hearing thunder in the distance for about 10 minutes, and it's suddenly gone •very• dark.
Is this the end?
They called off our parade instead of moving it forward 2 hours. Not like the old days of ponchos and plastic covering the students instruments. When I spent my whole youth in Scouts and marched in parades we toughed it out as did our soldiers who lost their lives.
That is what Memorial Day is for. To pay respect for those who lost their lives in wars and conflicts not beer, wine with burgers and dogs. Guess maybe just those who have families who served generation after generation see holidays a bit different when loved ones never come home.
We did a huge car show Friday night then the rains came and went and once they stopped I went out to see how much the weeds had grown. :)
Spots on my 2+acres are below.

















Have a wonderful day we will go from the 60’s and into the 90’s.

People think the UK is a bit soft with high temperatures, but seriously 30C here is worse than when I experienced it in South Africa. Humidity makes it so much more tiring. 30C in Florida made me just want to sit down and not do anything at all.
This gives a fascinating explanation of wet bulb temperatures and measuring heat stress for athletes in particular: https://perryweather.com/resources/should-i-use-wet-bulb-or-wet-bulb-globe-temperature-wbgt/

It's cherry season, I'm watching the weather and tracking the rain storms like I did for 15 years. I'm very tempted to text the guy who bought my cherry drying business and give him some rain tips, but I honestly don't feel like having a conversation with him right now. It's super windy and the sky looks serious. Drops hit me when I went out onto the deck to take this picture. #weather #LetItRain #RainOnMe

## El Huracán de Santa Cruz del Sur
This one was horrific
Quote:
>The 1932 Cuba hurricane, known also as El Huracán de Santa Cruz del Sur[1] or the 1932 Camagüey hurricane,[2] was a **powerful** and ***catastrophic tropical cyclone*** that struck the island country of Cuba in Noviembre 1932, becoming the deadliest and one of the most intense on record to have made landfall in the country. It is the only Category 5 Atlantic hurricane ever recorded in November. The cyclone had a path through the Caribbean Sea atypical to most hurricanes developing late in the Atlantic hurricane season.
I'm in the process of gathering more information on this tropical cyclone, and wanted to share what I've found so far.
Cyclones are fascinating storm systems, which naturally also occur on other planets in all star systems
To make my search focussed, I also looked op tropical cyclones of Cat 5 which I also sourced down here

After several years of steady climate change trends for my corner of #AppalachianOhio, I am now canceling "April showers brings May flowers" as our April showers now come in May.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. #Gardening #Weather
