Over the last few days, Apple Weather on my iPhone has been constantly pinging about incoming rain. For the most part, it’s never turned up. Even the hourly forecasts have been more misses than hits. How’s your experience been with Apple Weather?

We had some seriously strong winds last night. We had to unplug our inflatable Christmas decorations in the front yard as the winds were just too strong to have them inflated.

It blew our trash cans all the way from the side of the house to our mailbox, which is about 120ft away.

Crazy night for weather last night. And now today, the high will only be 47F/8C where as yesterday the high was 68F/20C.

We even have our first frost of the season! Yay!

How slow warnings, poor defences left #Spain exposed to deadly floods

I always find it particularly bitter when corrupt politicians are so lazy that they don't even care about human lives and prefer to blame others after the disaster in order to keep their lucrative office for which they are obviously unsuitable.

European climate agency says this will likely be the hottest year on record -- again

In the coming 2 days the @kachelmannwetter multimodel ensemble predicts up to 177 mm of extra rain in the region of #castellon .

Not only #Spain but the entire #EU will have to have a difficult conversation on how we'll prepare us for #weather #disaster amplified by #ClimateChange

A thread.
