What Is The Weather Today II (No Mercury Jockeying)

[MonctonRad]

14C and sunny in Moncton at 9 AM, going up to 24C this afternoon.

Things are getting very dry in the Hub City. We've had nothing but a few showers for the last month.

Thanks, but I should make it clear that almost none of the photos I post on this thread are mine. I'm still working fulltime (at age 67) and don't have the time to go exploring and take interesting photos of my own. Maybe when I finally retire.

There are a couple of NB Facebook groups dealing with nature and landscape photography around the province. This is where I find these photos.

I'm just doing my bit to combat the impression that NB is nothing but a drive-thru province with nothing of interest. I used to be afflicted with that impression myself (growing up on PEI then living in Halifax for nine years). It was only after moving here I discovered that NB was every bit as interesting as it's Maritime neighbours. You just have to get on the byroads and do some exploring.

Epic foggy morning at Arrowhead PP.

It's a great picture. Thanks for finding it and sharing.

I'd recommend adding a link to where you found the picture, or if it's available, the photographer's name - just to give credit where credit's due.

Hopefully, when you're less busy, you can take some pictures of Moncton. I'd love to see the city through your eyes.

Yes, you're right.

Carl Behan was the photographer.

It's been a lovely day. Not too hot.

[TownGuy]

The fog above burned off. Just a beautiful day





Some exceptional biodiversity


Love when trees cling to rock faces like this

Fog pics were gorgeous, Town.

Just for the laugh, updating Dad about a replacement motion light I installed in the back this evening.



It works. A lot

24C with a humidex of 27 and sunny. Decent September day.

Low of 14C this morning.

The warmspot was Lytton, BC at 35.1C.

Warmest low was Little Flatland Island, ON at 18.2C Never seen this station before.

So August 2024 ended up as the third rainiest month of all-time.

Kind of funny how our daily 154 mm would be more than half of the precipitation even for November 1927.

16C and sunny in Moncton at 9 AM, going up to 26C this afternoon.

There is a disorganized system of thunderstorms near Bermuda which may or may not strengthen to tropical storm status in the next day or so. In any event, it is heading straight for the Maritimes and will bring us much needed rain this weekend. It will also be quite breezy on Saturday.

It's nice.

[MonctonRad]

Which country does that naval ship visiting port belong to???

It's not RCN. I know that much. The numbering on the bow looks American.

[SignalHillHiker]

It's American, the Port Authority hasn't named it on their map ("U.S. Govt. UNSPECIFIED"). I expect it's no secret but I'm not close enough to read if there's a name.

Is this thread ever dead, don't think I've ever had 3 sets of photos on one page. Everyone must be back into the swing of things.

Nice day at Arrowhead PP again.

This morning

Anyway, don't want to make the weather thread political, just wanted to share a thought. Carry on.

15C and partly cloudy in Moncton at 9 AM, going up to 21C this afternoon.

Heavy rain and strong gusty winds developing early tomorrow morning as the semi-tropical system that formed a couple of days ago around Bermuda enters the region.

I read something quite interesting on the interweb last evening. The reason why there has been a sudden pause in hurricane development in the Atlantic basin is because the intertropical convergence zone over Africa has shifted a couple of hundred km northward. This is bringing significant rainfall to the Sahara. Because of the northward shift, thunderstorms are no longer coming off the continent in the Cape Verde region. This is the nursery for Atlantic hurricanes.

Fascinating stuff. Another example of the butterfly effect.

Once we get past tomorrow there will be a beautiful stretch of warm, dry weather.
