Three more days of cloudless skies. We're getting 24°-26° with low humidity. Bude is always favoured when the wind is in the east, as it has been for weeks, as the air passes over a couple of hundred miles of warmed-up land before it reaches us. I can't remember a spell as sunny for as long as this one. I'm running out of barbecue gas...

Here in Bude we've had 21 days of wall-to-wall sun, with just a tiny glitch three weeks ago with a cloudy day with a tenth of an inch of rain. Otherwise bone-dry. It won't rain and the sun will beam out for at least the next week. I remember the "nonesuch" summer of 1976, when you could plan your barbecues weeks in advance knowing that it would be hot and rainless. That's not the British way! I can't remember a spell of weather like this one. The only downside is that the thermometer still plunges into single numbers/the forties every night. By day we're getting 21-24C which is lovely for sitting around outdoors. But the garden work calls...

Sandra in Sydney, that's a fascinating bit of info about Sam Hill. I guess that's one way to go down in history. Kind of like what may happen when the tRump, aka as t'Ass, is out of the picture- a braggerly cheating, amoral traitor may well achieve the eponymous distinction.

Well, May was chilly here in the north west. The average minimum temperature for May was 2.4 deg C (the F folk will have to work the conversion out), making it the coldest May for over 100 years. Can be read about here.

It was also one of the dryest, only 0.2 mm over the whole month, equaling a record which has stood since 1998.

Not a record we wish to break.

wikipedia -
Sam Hill is an American English slang phrase, a euphemism or minced oath for "the devil" or "hell" personified (as in, "What in the Sam Hill is that?").

oh no! Wikipedia is wrong - CantonDaily Ledger sez. Where did the expression Sam Hill come from?
(Sam Hill was a Michigan surveyor in the 1800s who “allegedly used such foul language that his name became a euphemism for swear words,” according to Wikipedia, so it has to be true. Another source says it's a euphemism for “hell.”)

this is fun! A google search on Sam Hill rings up lots of interesting stuff, a veritable rabbit hole ...

Glad you asked, Ebbie - “For Pete's sake” originated as a substitute for “for Christ's (or God's) sake,” and other similar expressions as using a shortened form of the disciple St. Peter's name instead was considered less offensive.

Here in the Land of Oz we are heading into winter, so it's getting cooler. But Sydney's winter is different to Alaska's winter.

I live on the edge of the CBD, close to the Harbour (can't see it cos buildings are in the way) & have my windows locked open about 6" & don't have heating. I just put on more layers, naturally those who live west of the harbour have heating, some even have properly sealed homes!!

Average June temperatures in Sydney CBD are 18C high/10C low, averages further west - Parramatta 18/8 (25km from CBD), Penrith 18/7 (60km), Katoomba (in the Blue Mountains where some areas get snow) 10/4 (100km)

For those accustomed to F. temperatures, double & add 30 to get an idea of C. temperatures, for an accurate figure Google is your friend!

The weather? Here in Juneau, Alaska, this month of May has been memorable. Downpours of rain for five minutes then tapering off into normal rain then a downpour again, multiple times a day. If we aren't breaking records I would be very surprised.

It is also chilly with highs in the mid40s and lows of mid30s. This is May, for pete's sake. We should be having temps that range from 40 to about 60. (Who is Pete?)

This time of year used to be referred to as "cabin fever' season. Our days are longer and we're gaining about 5 minutes of sunlight to our days per day.

Yesterday after showering I went out to brush a fresh 1-1/2" of snow off the car, then drive out to Starbucks. Today the temperature dropped to 16°F and for dog walking we drove up to one of the trailheads where it was 10°F. The dog loved it and plowed through the trailside snow depth like it was diaphonous ferns. There were many people who drove up there to ski the trails and enjoy the views of town and mountains for Easter. This is the time of year the ravens head back to the nearby mountains to start their nests and domestic chick raisng. Their place is taken by seabirds and Canada geese but it is a bit too early for them. I thought I saw some trees with buds but we're a couple of weeks from leafing out. Nevertheless there are many devoted gardeners who are chomping at the bit to get outside, but no official outdoor gardening until Memorial Day.

Friday before last we had 60 mph winds with faster gusts throughout Ohio. No tornado activity was reported but my wife and I saw several instances of down trees that had been twisted off rather than knocked over. Hundreds of thousands without power, over 100,000 in my county, nearly a third of the population. I was without power for over three days. we live in the country, literally in the middle of a large corn field, We have gas heat but an elcectric thermostat and well water supplied by an electric pump so we were without both. We had lanterns for light and would have toughed out the 40 degree tempd but how do live without water. After the first night we checked into a hotel. We've been back to normal for 6 days now but they are calling for another such storm two days from now. Fingers are crossed.

The snow and rain hitting California will help refill the aquifers. Texas hasn't had that kind of rain (the Edwards Aquifer is still in dire need of water). It is hit or miss around the country, for places that got the moisture.
