EVERY WINTER PRECIPITATION (AND HAIL!):
The past several days have been a smorgasbord of #winter #precipitation falling across the #Northland. That included #snow, #sleet, and #freezingrain.
There was even #hail with a couple #thunderstorms Friday afternoon, including the first #severe thunderstorm warnings for 2025!
#Snowfall is still occurring in some parts this afternoon. That will move out by tonight.
by golly! the weather guessers got the afternoon thunderstorms spot on.
I’m enjoying it in the best fashion, by sitting in my warm, dry house and treating it like background music for my life.

You know grew up in the Midwest when you hear a weather radio alert and immediately switch on your preferred local TV channel to watch the weather team narrate the storm and tornado warnings like they are calling a football game.
Stay safe out there, folks.

So, the back of the yard is flooded.
My house is totally dry and fine.
It's about 5 to 6 inches deep in some spots. I'm going to have to go out and get a better look tomorrow.
I think I'll have to do something (?fuck knows what) about the standing water because of the risk of mosquitoes breeding in it.
(also, all this water fell in about 2 hours)
(also also, all the doors and windows are closed at the moment. I have the fan and the air conditioner on.. AND I CAN HEAR THE FRONGS OVER THE TOP OF IT, THAT'S HOW LOUD THEY ARE 
)
It's not raining today, so the dogs are out in the back yard finally .. it's nice to not have a parade line of bored animals following me around the house constantly.
#WonderOfNature: Dirty #Thunderstorms, also known as #Volcanic #Lightning, is a crazy phenomenon where volcanoes actually produce lightning.
It occurs when lightning is produced in a volcanic plume during an eruption. The ash picks up extra friction, creating static electricity that creates the spectacular lightning.
So, someone's shed roof just blew down my street..
That's new.
