@sundogplanets we here in Alberta are sorry for dumping our used weather on you but really we're running out of places to put it
Good luck!
Hope the storm is getting weaker soon

Muddy but beautiful neighbourhood bike ride. Critters use the roads almost as much as us: I saw footprints from deer, moose, and lots of coyotes (or maybe foxes? I don't know enough to tell the difference from a moving bike)
@sundogplanets
While you contemplate nature's tracks on your rides, we remind you of our just cause in Palestine; the freedom of our land and the safety of our people need your continuous support and voice.

Ok, wrote a bunch of words in various documents and answered a bunch of emails after my bike ride. Now time to try to move the goat fence before the giant pile of thunderstorms gets here (looks like the poor dog is going to have to deal with thunderstorms YET AGAIN).

You might find this site interesting re: lightning.

@sundogplanets When I was younger I watched documentaries on Coyotes, and I think you are safe. They only exist where there are very high cliffs, and if you saw one, you would likely also see traces of a bomb exploding or rocks falling, bridge going out, or fake road/bridge/tunnel on some rocks.

Poor goats. I did not get the fence set up before I got a tornado warning on my phone and decided it was time to go inside.
The tornado warnings in Sask often cover a ridiculously huge area...I could clearly see there was no tornado. But there was thunder starting so... poor goats. They will have to wait until tomorrow for new grass. (They will be fine).

Cool!! (It hit quite far away, did not hit the barn like this picture implies)

Are you sure the goats aren’t trying knock down some space debris?

@sundogplanets
Too late gofundme to restore the goats home is already at $500,000USD -

Mammatus! Goodnight.

Dang there are apparently very good auroras happening! But it won't be dark for an hour and a half. I may have to go to bed and set an alarm for 1am... I'm so tired...

@sundogplanets camera trick for lighting shots during a thunderstorm . Set a camera up with manual exposure settings (on a tripod) with a really long exposure time, small aperture (big f number) long shutter speed, or manually hold shutter open, Then wait for a lightning.
The lighting will be so bright it will illuminate the scene.
Just don’t leave the camera or its operator where it will be struck by lightning

@sundogplanets I just came back online to see if anybody had been posting pictures yet. None so far!

@sundogplanets hmm. Well, I *was* planning on sleeping, but maybe not...

@sundogplanets It won't be dark here until like September. Am I right, @redrummy?
