*** Weather Reports ***

We are frequently asked here 'What's the Weather Like?' so I am sticking a thread here for all us DR1'ers to post our real time amateur weather observations for one and all to see.

Please tell us where you're reporting from, date, time, how much or little sun, temperature, wind anything else you have handy. I will add a program to allow you to post these in a standard format sometime in the near future, and maybe even take the info and drop it on a graphical map for all to see. For now though, free form it and have fun! Let's see what's going on out there!

Boy how time files when you're not having fun! This has been on the idea has been on the shelf for awhile. But, now that most of the disaster fires are out here at Xanadu I wanted to get started. For anyone interested in weather sensors here's what I use. They have some neat stuff and it's easy to install. We provide these to many of our clients as a favor so if any DR1 member wants some PM and I will arrange it at cost. The coming program to report real-time DR weather will be able to collect reports right from these sensors so you can be a part of the DR1 weather network without any extra work!

Santo Domingo. Slight drizzle in the morning for less than three minutes. Early morning it looked like a toss up between would it rain or not. Day eventually cleared up and while there are clouds, there is also lots of lovely blue sky. The temperature is pleasant -- don't have a way to tell what it is, but it feels like 27C.

Day started with bright blue skies, now it's overcast with a threat of slight rain that should pass quickly if it happens at all. Temperature is about 28C, slightly warmer than yesterday.

Thanks, Cleef. Folks I'll leave just this one to remind us how lucky we are here in Paradise. But lets keep this to Dominican weather reports only! Who wants to hear 'aboot' all that endless misery in the Great White North anyway? - XR


Here in the mountains I shoveled snow most of the last week, although it broke 30 today and I could swear the sun came out, at least that's what I heard. I drove around with my car windows down, my sandals on and the heat blasting.

Chopped some of the melting ice off the driveway and washed all the salt off my car.

Tonight it's supposed to get pretty dark until the waning moon comes up around 9sh. Tomorrow morning it's supposed to get light around sunrise, then gray (to match the pale skin) with interspersed wind chills ranging from -10 to 20 degrees F.
