I was upset about a crappy email I got at work today. Seeing this video put things back into perspective

Watch the moment a 'TORNADO' explodes out of Iceland's newest volcano
New footage shows the twirling air column emanating from Litli-Hrútur, or 'Little Ram' volcano, which formed last month in Iceland's Reykjanes peninsula.
Tornado volcano.
I just got back from 3 weeks in Japan. The heat was nuts. It was high 90s everyday and when we went to Kyoto for 3 days, it was over 100 each day. In Florida, you at least have a breeze and space between buildings. In Japan, the buildings just absorb the heat and radiate it back at you.

Had a snow day on Friday, shoveled yesterday and so far nothing more today. But super fucking cold it so some snow iced over. Windy too making it worse. Made the mistake shoveling a day later as some parts of my driveway and sidewalk were impossible unless I wanted to stand there with an ice breaker all day. So for those parts I just dumped tons of salt on it. This week is supposed to be around -10 to -15C here. But then warm up a touch the following week.
For those of you who dont get snow and assume everyone in snow country just have shovels, we got many. Big plastic one with metal trim, one of solid smaller all metal shovels which aare good for gardening and breaking ice, and these beauties for those pain in the ass parts where you need to chop or scrape ice.

We are going through one of the coldest stretches in a long time. In fact Saturday night was the coldest in 30 years. -38C with a windchill of -51C. My neighbour dropped by to grab something in runners and shorts lol Cold is nothing for us Western Canadians. Next Saturday it warms up to a high of -6c. We will be out in t-shirts and sandals lol

It is -17 degrees outside right now and we had 11” of snow since last Friday. I’m over it. It snowed on Christmas and that should have been it.

Some crazy storms hitting the central United States this weekend, particularly on Saturday.
The graphs below signify chance for tornado activity. Hatched areas are at risk for EF4 or EF5 tornados. If you live in these areas, keep an eye and an ear on your local weather forecasters. This could be a very ugly weekend.
Anyone looking for live coverage as it happens, I cannot recommend Ryan Hall enough. This guys knows his shit and has a great team working with him.

Been tracking this system for about a week, is important to know that today ended up getting downgraded from its prior SPC release.
There is also an argument that the continued storms could impact the next 3 days and cause them to de-escalate a bit. We shall see. It’s been a very calm spring tornado kick off honestly.
Hall is convenient for sure as he has chasers that stream with him you can bounce around and see, including some of the best like Brad Arnold. He’s controversial in the weather community a bit, but still good for viewing on the day of.
As calm as the season has been, funny enough I took a direct hit from a tornado a few weeks back. House still in the stages of repair. I watched the radar and honestly though the rotation would miss us.. was wrong. Lol.

Ok enough about US, here in Vietnam it's unprecedented heatwave for months. I lived in Dubai before but this I feel is even worse when there's 78% humidity and "feels like" 32C* at 2 am. It's mad.

What unit is that "837mb" I don't expect it to be in Bars, given that they've used imperial units in speed.

It didn't suck as much?

It's millibars. We Americans have strangely inconsistent notions when it comes to scientific units. We put "calories" on our nutrition labels when they're actually kilocalories. We don't use Joules for electrical energy, but we do use Watts for power. It's bizarre.

So in another words it has suck power of 123 mB? given that 1 Bar = normal atmospheric pressure?

You guys do have some weird practices. Metric makes no sense usually, like temperature with celsius. 0 degrees water freezes, 100 degrees it boils. How does that make sense at all? 32f and 212f is better

And for carpentry a 12" foot is very useful.
