Got a nice blow job here in NW Missouri. Said up to 70mph winds but we didn't get anything quite that strong. Maybe 40-50 mph gust where I'm at.

And blows through your clothes.

I wasn't sure if it transfers cold into your bones, or just transfers pain.

Yeah, no kidding. I remember walking around in Virginia a few years ago. It was 25 degrees and I didn't think I was going to survive.

And I bet it still feels more comfy in Phoenix than it does up here due to the humidity....
I read this in Hudson's voice LMAO

hear of any major damage anywhere?

I would say the KC area is on alert.

Haven't heard of anything. There's some leaves that have been blown off trees scattered around the parking lot. That's about it.

Flip the map to temps,

St Joe 91

Falls City NE 79

My building just got shook pretty good for about 15 minutes straight. Looks like the heavy stuff has moved past my location.

Seeing power outage posts from beer related businesses I follow in KC. Midtown-ish area

Detassling is shit work for sure.

Nailed us pretty good in Excelsior.

I'm sure inhaling toxic roundup fumes for weeks on end was very helpful for my long term health.

We'll all have non-Hodgkins lymphoma eventually. Years of contact with that shit.

I am trying to decide if I should talk to them about mom. She had it.


we used it. Dad also cleaned the sprayer within the area of the well. Ugh

I picked up some sticks and minor branches around my house, took about 40 minutes there were quite a few actually. From surveying the area no major damage I could tell from it where I live.

Summer in Kansas is like Super Mario 3 when the sun tries to kill you

Eh. Doubt it. My dad has been spraying that shit since before I was born. And he didn’t get a pressurized cab until the late 90s. Moreover PPE was…optional at the time.

In fact one of my neighbors thought farmers were killing us all in the early 2000s and had KU med do a cancer study out here and pet capita there isn’t any statistically significant difference in the cases or types of cancer out here than in a metro where it isn’t used.

That one is a pretty tough sell for me.

We do spray some mean shit periodically but it isn’t glyphosate.

The heat these last two weeks have made me rethink living in Phoenix area.

JFC is it repulsive!

We still have July and August to get through. I'm fearing its going to be 120-125 this summer. :fire:

My Uber car said 119 at 4:00.

It's hit 100 five or six days in a row here, and it never does.... ~103-104. Anyone trying to beat the heat at elevation will be disappointed (but, at least it's not 90 at 4am).

Yeah this is too hot, for too long, too early.

It did drop to 118 by the time I reached my destination. Which was nice.

That's f'd up that the OP knows my location even though I don't have location activated on my phone

WE have Deserts in America, We just don't live in them, ASSHOLES.

Sam Kinison


You guys didn't listen to Sam and moved there.:thumb:

California's central valley isn't supposed to be a desert, at least historically, but it's sure getting there.

Not to change the subject, but 80 MPH winds across the northern three tiers of Kansas counties, and the lower county or two in southern Nebraska. Way out west right now. Just a heads up for those in the path.

Supposed to possibly weaken before it gets to my door step around 1:00 AM

all things weather-allowed.

Hoping it holds together until it hits my doorstep here in NW Missouri.

Yeah. Don’t need that. It blew probably 45 or 50 in town but probably 20 by the time I got 15 miles south. ****ing weird man.

According to NWS, it is still kicking out 80 MPH winds in Jewell (Mankato) and Mitchell (Beloit) counties in Kansas, and Nuckolls (Superior) county in Nebraska.

Reports of damage in some counties. Phillips I think is what they said.

we officially have .12 inches. Still have to keep watering.

It's mid-August hot in KC. Real swamp ass shit going on. It was like 55 for a high three weeks ago.

The globe, she be warming.

I'm sitting outside watching a thunderstorm develop right on top of me.

This is sweet.

Holy shit. This is AMAZING.

Had a great view of some clouds lowering. Just wouldn't quite rotate.

115 in the Valley of the Sun today.

But luckily we're heading into a cooling period; temps should top out at just 107-108 for the next three days.:thumb:

That's going to blow out some windows.

Under a tornado warning, but all the bad shit seems to be north of me.

Tornado hit Woodridge, a western Chicago burb last night. Pretty intense thunderstorms here in the city for about an hour.

All the major damage ended up being south of us, not north. Early speculation was that it was in the EF2-3 range.

45 degrees at leech lake this morning

57 here, Slept with the windows open, AC off. For now.

One of my friends lives in the area of Naperville where the tornado initially dropped. They had some relatively minor damage to the house and lost a good-sized tree, but were just to the west of the area that really got hit hard.

Naperword

My one and only Leech Lake experience was after a strong storm front went through.

Fishing was awful, I'll never go back.

We drove through this one before it fired up the tornado. My daughter was driving because I was inebriated and I was watching the circulation tighten on radar behind us most of the way home.

The best part of this weekend is that the pond that was destroyed by the derecho last summer is now broken again, leaking everywhere, and I can't fix it. Probably going to have to fill it in before I end up dropping 10 grand in it.

And we looked at a house in NC yesterday right after it came on the market. Within 2 hours they had 13 offers and were making a decision within FOUR HOURS of listing.

I don't normally like to do this on Chiefsplanet but I'm dangerously close to starting a "talk me off the ledge" thread. I'm ****ing bottoming out here.

Buying a house right now is like being the only guy at a concentration camp with a sandwich...

I remember you saying that.

Yep.

Should have moved years ago but things didn't get really bad until here recently.

Hence why I'm needing to be talked off a ledge. It almost feels like I'm being cosmically punished. It's just a string of never-ending bad luck.

**** it. Just rent for awhile.

We're about to close and competed with nobody. Offer accepted in 24 hours.

Try to land a realtor with better connections that can get you a property before it goes public.

We've been through SIX realtors already. We're house shopping in a market that's 1200 miles away.

There's a shortage of rental properties too.

The guy I talked to this weekend in southern NC said in a normal year (even this time last year, in the middle of COVID) they carry about 3 months of inventory, rental and buy, at any given time - about 1500 properties.

He said currently there are 485 properties available in his area, for sale or rent.

Score one more for the upper midwest's weather...

After a late snow melt and 3 months of virtually no rain at all, most of the untilled ground around here resembles hardened concrete. Repeated rounds of strong-to-severe storms that started Sunday afternoon will continue through this coming Sunday and we're being advised that it could lead to widespread flooding due to rapid runoff.

Maybe you have already stated this, but what prompted a 1200 mile relocation? Job? Family? Retirement?

Job is based out of Winston-Salem, NC.

Retirement will be based on the beach somewhere east of Winston-Salem, NC.

Almost all of my family lives in Iowa, which is more than a car ride away from Winston-Salem, NC.

Gotcha.

****ing humidity today here in Phoenix is god damn high! 51% when its usually 8-11%

Hot and sticky sucks.

Humidity is only 88% here in KC.

Could be an interesting weather night for KC and NW Missouri.

I just saw Hockey Helmet Katie Horner on a KMBC web forecast. She's actually looking pretty hot. She's built for an old broad. And she's moist because there's potential bad weather tonight...

It's 84.9 with a heat index of 94.8 and 76% humidity east of Manhattan KS. Reed Timmer is in the area and plans on storm chasing tornadoes later today.

Dew point of 72° today in KC. Swamp balls...

DP high here too. yuck.

Jesus Dude.

Maybe look into building?

I'm sure builders are busy as all hell if that is the environment also.

Sorry man.

Hehe.

I asked him about that. New builds in that area are currently turning around in about 10 months - people are paying 10-15% over market and waiting almost a year for construction to even start. Plus the cost of building materials, it's not a good time to move, there are like zero options.

Now you know why I'm so bummed. This might be the worst time to move in my lifetime.

Smitty-his video showed. But not a FB page.
