RE: Flooding in Alberta

in #weather7 years ago

Thanks for this nice update on your weather condition.

It's nice to know that you have the highest amount of water flow in 11 years and hopefully the water should be sufficient for your and other families.

The pictures are really awesome and tells a lot about the condition there.
How amazing the earth mother which keeps up with different environmental conditions and keeps providing good things to mankind.

Thanks for sharing and I have to say Rob looks good with shovel in his hand.

Have a wonderful day :)

It is great that mother earth provides for us in all situations. The water is still flowing. This was a huge melt. I knew we had lots of snow but I am surprised that the water is still flowing.

I agree that is a good picture of Rob. I will have to keep that one.

How is the weather conditions over there?

Weather here continues to be hot with occasional rain but that is not enough to bring down the temperature and I think we are in for one of the hottest summers as we still have about 1 and half month to actual rainy season to start.

Nice to know that you too like the pic of Rob :)

It sounds like there was more rain in the rainy season in the past. I sure hope you get more rain for the rainy season.

One on the hottest summers

I sure hope you can stay cool. We often work in the mornings and rest in the afternoons and then get back outside in the evening. We have had to go to this type of work schedule because our summers are getting hotter for us as well. Our evening work isn't as productive though.

Keep cool my friend.

We are just anticipating a good rainy season this year.

We follow the same strategy of working in early morning to afternoon in many places here to beat the heat.

Thanks for updating on the situation and work culture there during summer.

When I was in UK, we use to follow the same like working early in the day and get off to some walk or some games in the evening.

Eventhough UK is one of the coldest places, summers there gets worse for people like me who are from countries with higher temperature as UK gets more hotter and exposing ourselves to that hot sun is dangerous.

Having said that, when it was winter, we use to shake with that cold and even a heavy over coat wasn't enough to keep ourselves warm.

Thanks for this, I really enjoyed discussing on this weather condition with you and other friends from Canada and other cold locations.

I sure hope you get the rainy season you need.

Up here in the north we have not had to change our usual day until the last few years. Not all people here have changed their work day but we are outside so much in the summer we need the break from the sun. We are not used to such hot temperatures. Now by hot temperatures I mean 30 to 35. You might think that is funny but here that is really hot.

I understand when you say that a heavy coat would not have been enough. It is hard to come to such a cold climate when you are used to the warmth. We had some friends come up from Mexico and it was May. We were running around in a light sweater and jeans. They were dressed in hats and heavy coats. When you get that cold it is hard to warm up.

It is really good to chat about such things. I know you live in a hot climate but not much more than that. It is good to know about your climate and other places. I think having these discussions helps bring us closer as a people.

You said it and it's poured yesterday, yes, it rained heavily here yesterday.
:)

30-35 temperature here is normal one and when it goes above 45, we start feeling the heat and it becomes unbearable. I have experienced that temperature of 30-35 will be too hot in western countries.

I understand when you say that a heavy coat would not have been enough. It is hard to come to such a cold climate when you are used to the warmth
Definitely, when 30-35 temperature is normal one for us, even a 10 degree temperature will make us feel like shivering and when it goes below 0 degree, that will have a huge impact on us.

Yeah, it's nice to know about weather conditions at different locations and try to understand the living of people there.

I had some nice break and today I am replying to all the messages I got, so it will be a bit busy day for me, but I hope to learn something new in this process. :)

I figured that our hottest temperatures might be close to normal for you. I guess it is all relavitve.

I am glad you had a nice break. Enjoy

Well, I guess so, 30 to 35 is normal for us. But the same temperature there will feel like more hot.

A short break always helps us to come back strong in doing something. Hopefully I will spend more time this week to make up for the lost time.

Have a good day :)
