https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/pineapple-express.html heres one for ya pepper.....the pineapple Express !! Although it's a west coast thing....we also use the term to describe showers that train across the gulf stream from the bahamas to Florida !!

Here we can either get a Colorado Low/Alberta Clipper in the winter.

We were traveling in Fiji and it was their National Holiday. It started to rain at the beginning of the football match (rugby) and these players just kept going at it. Near the end of the match the water was nearing the mid calf area. What a event and great athletic ability to run in that much water for such a longtime.
(It seems when the male population in Fiji start drinking Kava-the layback abilities take over)

We used the term popcorn shower years ago when on the golf course. We would be in the middle of a round and a popcorn shower would come up and only last 5 to 10 minutes. We're looking for some here at the home place today.

The term these past few years has been "Rain Bombs" It comes down hard in one location, and a mile down the road hardly anything.
In 2011 I experienced one on a island at the mouth of the St Lawrence River, I was building at the time. Got over 5" one afternoon-my wife was in at the rental in town 6 miles away-sunny.

......<SNIP>....said "Yeah, I'm fine, I'm just mad at the s.o.b. for making me late for dinner!"

Sounds like you weren't late for dinner. They just served the venison early!

No...not trying to belittle a life threatening, scary situation. Ferevently glad that it didn't turn out much worse.

Strange how life turns though. Here we are doing *everything* to avoid getting covid and a deer runs us over!!

Be careful and safe!

I hope those critters won't hurt folks that grow gardens. My problem is deer at night. I even got a red fox on camera the other night.

Rook, last fall someone got caught cheating. I don't remember the details. I think it may have been more than one person, also. Last Nov/Dec is kind of a blur.

Relevant may remember the details.

By the way I like the fireworks, I just have to look out the window to see them! LOL

William the Conqueror,

In that case here you go. Montreal hosts an international fireworks competition every year this one is by Italy from last year.

Just reading the tread in general discussion that White's Detectors is closing down.
My father traded his 30-06 and %150 for a White's Gold Master the family tree probably bought 20+ Whites over the years. I guess they just couldn't keep up with the new technology.
