This morning...

Current temp: +1 C

**outfinofulpv** · 09-17-2010, 06:19 PM

Yeah, and it went all the way down to 73 here last night!

**SinyugiN** · 09-17-2010, 06:21 PM

That's why I don't live in Canada but that's also why I don't live in FL!

**Koayrbzh** · 09-17-2010, 06:36 PM

Wow!

Were any orchids left outside?

**yPuqQ248** · 09-17-2010, 06:37 PM

That's crazy.....in September. We are still in the low 70's in Seattle.

**tropicana** · 09-17-2010, 06:58 PM

Crazy weather. That's why I am still living here on the coast

OMG, this reminds me that there is still some job to do, bringing back my 'outsiders' into the gh!!! Jean

**huerta** · 09-17-2010, 07:19 PM

And it's coming my way...

**U2DnBGFE** · 09-17-2010, 08:32 PM

Our "normal" average temperature in September s/b +17C, but this has been a weirdo cool & wet summer and fall. I put my two cymbidiums in the garage last night...

**Fouttysotlalf** · 09-17-2010, 08:37 PM

Crap, I'm not ready for that white stuff. Ernie, you had the right idea!

I thought this was last years post!

**U2DnBGFE** · 09-18-2010, 12:47 AM

^^ Well, I don't blame you for thinking that - I just took a look back at all the threads I've started to show unseasonable snow fall -too damn many.

**Alexunda** · 09-18-2010, 01:30 AM

Ugh! I don't envy your early snowfall. Yesterday wasn't so great here, though, with 2.28+ inches (5.79+ cm) of rain, most of which fell inside of only one hour. Naturally I was "lucky" enough to be driving across town when streets all over the city flooded with a couple of feet (.61 meters) of water. The engine sputtered and nearly died, and I very nearly floated away on more than one occasion. They always say not to drive thru standing water in the roadway, to turn around and go the other way instead, but I was already on the roadway when the water rose all around me. No matter which way I went, the water kept rising. I almost didn't escape!

Still, your sifting of snow looks mighty depressing to me.

**66paptroump** · 09-18-2010, 02:02 AM

Yikes Lanmark! Roads flooded with a couple feet of water! Glad you were safe. Bet it was white knuckle driving through that!!

Thanks, Mark. I was in the greenhouse in Grand Ledge when the rain hit. I've never heard it pound that loud and long on the roof as it did yesterday! I think a bolt of lightning hit the corner of the greenhouse -- no damage done, but the flash and bang were instantaneous. And very loud and very bright!

My husband was home at the time, and he said it was like that there, also -- the rain, that is. But no damage. The river was so low because of the dry spell that there is little chance of it flooding. The pond is fine, also -- a little high, but draining down the little creek we made to the river. (Actually, the river runs East to West.)

I'm glad you are OK, Mark -- that must have been a scary experience. So often you see pictures of cars floating away under such conditions. I'm glad I didn't see you on the news last night.

Joanne, your photo made me shudder!
