Etymology: From Old French dalmatique, from Latin dalmatica vestis (Dalmatian garment) since these garments were originally made of Dalmatian wool. Dalmatia is a region along the Adriatic coast of Croatia. That’s also where Dalmatian dogs got their name from. Earliest documented use: 1425.

Today's Question(s): What weather conditions are common where you live? What extreme weather conditions have you experienced anywhere?
Where I reside, it is common for awful sunny days; it is common (but not common enough) for heavy rains, which I adore...it is common for wind, it is common for just a breeze; it is common for the highest temperatures to reach about 83 and lowest temperatures of about 61. It is common to see thunderstorms not so far away...our most common winds are out of the southeast, which I hate. It means possible morning showers and no more for the rest of the day. Northeast winds are pretty neato...that means frequent fast moving showers and higher surf at the beach, along with good surf fishing.
Bonus Question(s): Do you live near a college, university, or tech school? If so, what are their specialties?

Today's Question(s):
What weather conditions are common where you live? What extreme weather conditions have you experienced anywhere? Where I now live it is pretty mild. Not many days below freezing and not many days above 100. Winters tend to rainy and boring. People here panic every time it snows an inch or the wind gusts above 50 mph. As far as extreme weather, living in Alaska had it's fair share. I have seen minus 69 on the thermometer. The wind can get over 100 mph. One place I lived got about 80 inches of rain a year. Another place had lots of drifting snow. More than once I have looked out the window and not been able to see any parked cars as they were all completely buried in snow drifts.

What weather conditions are common where you live? At Albuquerque the weather is usually very nice even in the winter time but out here on this Texas South Plains farm, the weather has intelligence, e.g., the 24" of rain we get each year always seems to occur on the rare days when I need to get out. I need to take my trailer out today to pick up a piece of ag equipment but the road is still soggy from the rain this morning. It's no fun to spend 20 minutes to unload the trailer and an hour to wash the mud from under the truck.
What extreme weather conditions have you experienced anywhere? I suppose that would be the tornadoes I have seen.
