Friends and family, in Facebook and Livejournal have been complaining about the hot weather out on the coast. This week's forecast summarizes our entire summer to date:



I'm trying to be sympathetic about the hot weather, but it's taking more effort than I can muster at the moment.

In a related note, a local news station put up an on-line poll: Environment Canada predicts nice summer weather will come to Manitoba over the next several weeks. Do you believe them? Currently the it's running 87-13% for the no side. That's been the story since June. Environment Canada says, "This cool wet weather will be ending soon. Expect sunny and and hot weather for next week." Then by the time next week arrives, they have revised the temperatures down by 10-15 degrees, and the sunny weather has mysteriously turned to rain and wind.

But just wait until next next week!

Yeah, people are complaining about the heat while I'm wrapped in a blanket.
I refuse to turn on the heat, but the house is at 20 degrees. Fun.

By the way, your mood icon has transparent colour in the drawing, which makes parts of him see-through. When I saw him on my white page, he had a bunch of harsh white dots everywhere.
(Which I've replaced with red.)
covered in red!

Cool...Warlock. Haven't heard that tune in a long while.

It's been cool and wet here (Near Toronto) as well. Got up this morning to yet another dark morning. As I look at ForcastFox just below the text I'm typing, I see three clouds with lightning. It's storming now, tomorrow, and the day after.

After the bugs were so bad last year, we thought we might have been on track for better outdoor weather this year. But all rain has the mosquito population exploding again. It's impossible to spend any time at all in the woods without toxic levels of deet on.

Personally I don't have much gripe against the cooler temperatures. Our AC bill is way down this summer and that's a very good thing this year.

Still...I hope we all get at least a couple of weeks of real summer this year.

Your weather sounds exactly like my British summer :P . Rain, rain, never ending rain, never above 20C. It's raining right now, as it's done since June. I hate the rain :P

jeeze ... your weather's only a few degrees warmer than mine, and we're in the middle of winter.
