What's the temperature where you are???

We use umbrellas for shade, too! Walking shade. Sometimes calls parasols. It must look so odd to outsiders to see a bunch of people walking around with open umbrellas when there's not a cloud in the sky, lol.

I will keep an umbrella with me from now until late September and possibly into October for shade walking and waiting for buses and I’m not the only one

I did find out about 10 years ago that I have to use a black or very dark colored umbrella because light colored do not block the sun

I have seen many waterspouts in the Gulf of Mexico over the past 50+ years

How cool! They seem to be quite a bit safer than their land cousins as well.

I remember nan doing the same. A lot of Asians visiting the area always carry a parasol, some of them are very decorative and beautiful.

Australia-wide soaking to continue under twin cloudbanks while east coast low risk emerges this weekend​

Autumn is wrapping up with a widespread soaking across Australia as a 5,000-kilometre-long cloud band engulfs the country from the tropics to Tasmania.

The north-west cloud band will continue its progression east during the coming days – and by Sunday will have brought rain to around 90 per cent of Australia.

During the next 48 hours, the rainband will spread to the east coast, dropping from 10 to 40mm across most of NSW and southern Queensland.

Millions of Aussies could soon expect a bout of wild weather as predictive data shows another possible La Niña event on the way. In fact, it's "gathering steam fast," according to one expert who warned of wetter and cooler conditions to once again blanket major parts of the country.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) officially declared the end of El Niño in mid-April with suggestions a wet La Niña event may be coming our way. And if it does, it would then be the first time in history Australia has seen an El Niño or La Niña weather event declared five years in a row.

I think we might get some rain out of this. If not some one needs to be looking for work elsewhere as they are incompetent.
