What's the WEATHER Like Today?

[Breakfall]

I love Autumn...it’s my favourite season of the year. There’s a big of a cold snap at the moment. Almost Ugg boot weather, but I’m still happy sporting sandals...

It's been raining in NOLA for three days. Yup, Spring is here.

 

[Big Sexy]

90 degrees today

love the heat

 

[Kitty Zhang]

101 today

 

[Wootie]

19°C/67°F for today's High.

12°C/53°F for a low.

I'm excited this time of year because in about 3 weeks to a month when the temperatures get to 12°C/54 °F for a high is when Psilocybe semilanceata (liberty cap) starts to grow. It is considered a Schedule 1 drug ("substances, plant materials and fungi which normally do not have medical use") where I live, but they are full of shit and I'll forage them when I can and consume them whenever the fuck I want.

It’s getting cold here. I’m so sick of winter

 

[Dove]

[Seamajor]

Huge tropical thunder storm last night. Gods awesome light show

 

[TheHaze]

This morning seen a large flock (about 30) geese flying south which means it is getting cold up north

 

[LotusBud]

Not used to this shit at all. Shrieking wind and snow blowing all over the place.

Now I know I would not last more than a season in a hurricane or tornado zone.

 

[LotusBud]

70 mph gusts. Just, no thanks.

 

[Jeannie]

windy, cold and raining slush :/

 

[Sharona]

Shitballs. People, get your game face on.

Hot weather sucks.

 

[Jeannie]

79, clear skies, low humidity and no wind - a top 20 day here

 

[LotusBud]

Brutal. We don't have AC.

BUT, we have cement/stone walls 1 1/2 feet thick, and you would never, ever know it's so fucking hot outside. There are a couple of fans going, and it's perfect in here.

Not going to sit in the yard, though.

 

[LotusBud]

Supposed to be 102 tomorrow, 104 on Tuesday. Will go to the market at night. Otherwise, not leaving these thick walls. Fuck this shit.

Yeah. It doesn't look a bit like Folsom Prison, though.

...could the use of solar panels power an air conditioning system @LotusBud?

Probably. We're going to look into solar panels. But we don't really need ac at all. We just need heat in the winter, cause the stone walls are pretty chilly. We have a fireplace, and are going to get splits for next winter.

Over here the average temperature is higher in the US, but summers in the US, at least where I lived, were pretty brutal some years. At least here you're always used to warm temperatures and for some reason, they rarely go above 90 degrees here in my city these days.

I remember whole weeks in the US with temps above 100.

Solar panels are almost impossible to set up for AC unless you can find some large capacity battery banks and completely cover your roof with panels. Anything affordable for a battery bank is generally used windmill, telecommunications, or old forklift batteries.... and most of those can't be depleted to less than 60-70% charge.

Capacitor bank technology has come a long way but you'll be up for 10's of thousands of dollars just for storage.



It can be done but it's generally not the done thing except on small scale.... ie a room or two of the house only.
