keberoxu - Yesterday, at 1PM, it was 16C. YEAH BABY! This AM, at 5AM, it was 10C!!!! Now, it's 30C but low humidity and there's a breeze. According to the forecast for tomorrow, I am cooking a roast of beef in the oven! Alas, the next days will be cold cuts and potato salad. All said and done, except for the January just passed ice storm (4 days without power), the last TWO years have been, well global warming... rather pleasant. Although, I do miss crisp and cold fall days.

Gnu, Gnu, thinking of uuuuuuu....

you felt deprived of spring weather.

Here it is the middle of summer, and what do we have
in southern New England?

Spring. With rainclouds.

Then bright sunshine, blue sky, and puffy white clouds, forty minutes later.

A great day for Bristol, RI's, parade, and for Chepachet, RI's, Ancient and Horribles
Parade. Not that I'm going to either. I hate crowds. I usually spend this day at Mystic Seaport, but I've been sidelined by an achy back. I think I feel well enough, and the weather is good enough, to go to a friend's home near the seaport for a cookout, though.

The effects of TS Cindy were pretty much as anticipated except that the cumulative rainfall was probably well over six inches. All area creeks and rivers are well out of their banks. The roof on my pottery studio sprung a leak and brought down a chunk of ceiling drywall. No big deal. I built it, I can fix it. A tree fell on my neighbor's fence allowing some of his cattle to escape and wander about on my property, but they're safely back home now. It could have been worse.

Today is supposed to be cloudy but dry, with the usual 50% chance of afternoon thunder showers resuming tomorrow.

As if it weren't already rainy enough, now we have Tropical storm Cindy promising to dump five or six more inches on us over the next couple of days. My pond will overflow. My driveway will be a river. The bridge on the south end of our road will be underwater, so we'll have to detour north and double back on roads with higher bridges.

Fortunately, we aren't close enough to the storm's center for wind to be a problem, just lots of rain.

Glorious sunshine and wonderful hot weather along the UK south coast today - 29C will do me.

Just strolled along to my local pub and enjoyed a couple of pints of "Doombar" - brewed in Cornwall but travels well - and strolled back to enjoy dinner.

Everything is green and warm and vibrant. This IS the life (for the moment...).

Flights are grounded in the American southwest. It is 117-119 F.

Hot air is thin air. A heavy plane cannot acquire lift at 117.

We had about ten days straight of rain, during which time my roof sprang a leak. Then the rain stopped for about three days, which was just long enough for me to repair the roof. Then it started back raining and will probably keep it up for five or six more days. Thankfully, I have a good long book to read.

Good for you, gnu.
You were gnashing your teeth a few weeks ago when the warm weather kicked in too soon for your liking.
But hopefully your esteemed mother has ceased to live in dread, for the moment, of winter storms.

The wind is kicking up here in eastern Massachusetts as well, there is no shortage of rain, and everything here is green enough to blind you. That will change when the heat arrives and the green grass turns yellowish brown on the lawns, as ever.

keberoxu... In Moncton, NB.ca, it's presently (almost 1PM) cloudy and    9C with wind of 20-30kph. I am LOVIN' IT! Got the heat pump on, although I have refused to do so for a while. 3C and clear tonight so we'll see how my neighbours' bedding plants make out if there is no wind. Fools! Full moon is Friday and I told them two weeks ago not to put in annuals from the nursery before close to the full moon. But, they know all about the weather and I don't... according to them. Fools.

Forecast says 28C on Thursday. But, I have a heat pump for that. >;-)
