Devastating Rainfall in The Bahamas and South Carolina
NASA Earth Observatory: October 6, 2015
A major October hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean never made landfall, yet it has wrecked havoc in the Americas. Hurricane Joaquin sat just offshore of The Bahamas for several days, pounding the island nation with category 4 winds and flooding rain. Meanwhile, in the southeastern United States, a separate, yet Joaquin-influenced weather system brought intense rainfall and both inland and coastal flooding.
The map above shows satellite-based estimates of rainfall in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean from October 1–5, 2015, as compiled by NASA. These rainfall totals are regional, remotely-sensed estimates, and local totals reported by ground-based weather stations can be significantly higher or lower. The darkest blues on the map represent rainfall totals approaching 800 millimeters (31.5 inches) over the five days observed.
The rainfall data come from the Integrated Multi-Satellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG), a product of the Global Precipitation Measurement mission. IMERG pulls together precipitation estimates from passive microwave and infrared sensors on several satellites, as well as monthly surface precipitation gauge data, to provide precipitation estimates between 60 degrees North and South latitude. GPM is a partnership between NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. ...

Likely a very active Hurricane Season next year across our Basin. Joaquin might be a indication of whats coming next Summer. All this low pressure across the Atlantic is the exact opposite of the last several seasons. [link to www.tropicaltidbits.com]

My area had a rather calm Summer, as far as weather goes. Surprisingly calm. We'll see what this Winter brings...and next Summer.

How is your daughter doing?

She still doesn't feel well. Throat is still bothering her. I let her stay home from school and wish I could be home with her. I hate that she's alone and not feeling good. Might have to make her an appointment.

Thank you for asking. : )

just an update on the hail storm that hit las cruces on saturday.....an estimated 25,000 homes were damaged by the storm

When I was a kid. Moms just gave me 7Up, dry toast and Flintstones Vitamins. If my throat hurt, I had to gargle salt water every 2 hours. If I was stuffy in the nose. She'd fill the sink with boiling water. Drape a towel over my head and made me breath in the steam. Old school moms.

But seriously. If I was truly sick with a bad cold or like a fever or strep throat, she gave me real medicine.

Awe, poor little bug. Hopefully rest and fluids will help her today. I hope it's just a nasty cold and nothing more.

Something kept niggling my mind last night about Texas. It just dawned on me. Would this have anything to do with your thoughts?
