Re: RENO weather

Breezy?
Just over the hill to the west (Cold Springs) we had a dust devil come thru Saturday afternoon. After destroying all the privacy fences around my pool, scattering every potted plant to the corners of the yard, it picked up a 14' dia. trampoline. Tore the stakes out of the ground, lifted it about 75' into the air and dropped it into another yard about 250 yards away. Totally destroyed it! Strangely (and VERY luckily) it went straight up, and straight down. Landed between campers and cars in the neighbors yard (2 houses away) and caused no other damage. It missed cars, boats, RV's, houses, kids, etc.
Took 5 of us to carry the wreckage back, it weighed about 500 pounds!

Re: RENO weather

Was quite the experience. The neighborhood will talk about it for years!. Except for the one grouch who's still p.o.'d that I "let it happen".
Thing was held down with 4 screw in stakes AND tied to concrete blocks.
Has'nt moved an inch in 3 years till now.
Just glad the dog was'nt out there! It also tore a 8" diameter street tree out of the ground next door.
Cooling here this week, let's hope for a rainlees, snowless, warm not unbearably hot September!

As long as it isn't 90+ or below 60, I will be happy

Re: RENO weather

But, 90+ means "screamin' mimi" unlimiteds!!!

Leo said,"let's hope for a rainlees, snowless, warm not unbearably hot September!" That's kinda askin' for a lot Leo! You know how Reno can be!Of course the recent years have been pretty good to us (last ten or so...) I remember back in the seventies it seemed like it was cold, snowy, or rainy every year!!! I remember one year, musta been '74-'75, it was a cold and nasty Sunday. My Dad and I were sitting in his car outside the fence at the end of the grandstands (where the fire bombers are now) watching the races because we couldn't afford to pay to get in. The unlimited silver race took off, and then down came the snow. The silver race was brought back down, and visibility was so bad that you couldn't see the home pylon. Everybody started getting up and going home, so my Dad says, "lets go see if we can walk in" So we go walking right in, sit down at show center in the empty grandstands (there were no reserved seats back then) and waited to see if the weather would improve. Sure enough, in typical Reno fashion, about 20 minutes later the clouds part, the sun comes out, and the show resumes! As a bonus, while I'm sittin' there, I look down through the grandstand and spot a bag of unopened potato chips! Of course this is heaven for a 10 year old kid, and we watched the remainder of the races and had a snack in the grandstands for FREE! One of my favorite memories.....
