Some things simply go out with a whimper, but it looks like this season wants to stay, and it's doing everything it can to punish us poor earthlings with more rain, storms and floods.
Recently I made a post about a storm that spoiled a family trip to a sort of spiritual group therapy session I was going to.
Today I have an actual psychologist appointment to go to all the way in another city, and if things go like that other day, the road might not be so safe again.
This is how the sky looked like when I took the first picture of the post
You could see in encroaching around my area of Greater Criciúma and Araranguá's coast. And it's exactly what you see in the picture (albeit probably a little later, the map isn't accurate to the minute).
Things were really starting to look a little bleak, and luckily there wasn't a lot of stuff on the clothesline today (yes, we don't use a dryer lol), so it was a quick run before the raindrops started falling.
My dog was also really agitated with the sound of thunder and didn't want to stay in his little house, which was a large wooden board and a large tree that covers it, I think he felt that wasn't enough to protect him from what was coming, so I let him out to stay in the garage.
He was still really agitated and barking at the sky. He hates water anyway, giving him a bath is a hard ordeal that we have to take weekly. But well, he's calmer now. And I was right on taking the preparations.
Unfortunately my phone's battery died, all these photos were synced from Google, so I'm posting this from my laptop using my dad's phone as a router, because we have no power.
This is how the situation looks like right now.
The eye of the storm (red part) is quickly approaching my coastal town, the winds and rain are intense from here already. Our power is all shared between the Great Criciúma region so some station must've gone down.
Well, at least there's still internet. Time to listen to some music and try to chill out.
It'll be over soon, this is the only storm around according to OpenWeatherMap, just one of those quick summer hits that everyone is forced to endure.
What can you do...
Hell, if I keep at it with these posts I'll become the local Hive blog meteorology nut. I just really like rain.
I'm a weird dude. I work with IT professionally, do translations on my free time, study history at university and linguistics at home and like to keep checking the weather... Not to mention all my other 2000 hobbies like manga, anime, cars, games, aviation, geography, etc.
Knowledge is fun, just don't bore people with it.
