Weather where you are?

I think the drought might have broken here in Tasmania. Been pissing rain all night and for half the day so far. Now we're getting flood warnings for Northern Tassie.

I hope your place is safe CAM, if the top of Tassie sinks into the ocean, that means the south of the island will lift up (think see-saw).
 
Thanks for your explanation of the Tasmanian see-saw effect Chris. Sounds perfectly plausible, although I reckon it needs a bit more work before you submit it as a doctoral thesis in geophysics.  :D
 
Narr it's close enough to Plate Tectonics, BTW its pissing down in Wee Waa. Tail end of some Cyclone apparently.
 
Typical spring weather here on the the North Shore of the Great Lakes. Rather mild with the exception that Lake Huron has a very high water mark - It's gonna Flood low residences and wipe just about all the docks and some Marinas  - Guaranteed - Guess the Canadian Gov't is hoarding fresh water. We really did not have that much snow this winter ;o)
 
Beautiful spring weather in Calgary this weekend with highs in the low teens.  Still need 6" of ice in my back alley to melt before I can get the 1200 out of the garage.  Good weekend to get reacquainted with my smoker - just threw on 20 lbs of pork for a nice slow cook :)
 
We?ve had, and is forecast for a few more days, fine, dry, fairly settled weather, albeit a bit chilly out of the sun, so ideal for riding your Laverda, other than the fact it?s effectively banned! Oh well, I?m sure it?s only a matter of time.
 
Nice sunny weather early morning ride today, 7 am nice crisp air (down in the Coachella Valley Southern California) perfect for the air-cooled motor. From sea level, up the mountain, 70k's to Idylwild at 5500 feet bit cool up there snow in patches on the side of the road lots more upon the peaks.
The best part no one on the roads except for a few motorcycle enthusiasts, this virus thing is keeping people indoors or off the roads at least. The Jota ran great, afternoon temp expected to be close to 80f (26c), gas is cheaper too!

Hmmmmm.... I?m not going out for any rides for the time being, even if just by myself.  That way, I don?t have to visit petrol stations to top up fuel, or touch additional surfaces or objects out there.  Not so much about looking after myself, more about not looking after others.  Still driving to supermarket every couple of days to buy minimum food and other supplies, but that is it other than chemist for medications. We are still walking single file down to a deserted section of a local beach to have a walk, but only whilst that is still permitted.  I accept that some might disagree with what I am doing and welcome your comments and suggestions.  I am trying my best to do my bit to help stop the spread and find that by focussing on what I can do to protect others from myself, I am probably helping myself at the same time.

Thats pretty much the same as me Yogi. I have some 20wt fork oil that I will add after dropping the 15wt and probably give the bike a good solid scrub up. Be good to have seen lots of posts here to relieve the social isolation that's occurring. What a world we suddenly have, saw a report about how the southern parts of Italy are running out of food for some and how it might descend into violence. I hope it doesn't descend further into anarchy where this is really bad.
 
Yogi, 70km fang up the mountain solo with ATGAT, a couple of slow loops through the town center Idylwild (population 2600) 1 coffee shop open for take-away, I didn't stop. The return route was Hwy 74 the same one I took there 70km of amazing Santa Rosa Mountains roads, 1 right turn off of Highway 74 and I'm home before the wife even woke up, then I walked the dog (14 yo Blue heeler, Dingo). A good start to the day. Cheers Dave. 8)
