This is the longest coolest Spring in my memory. Generally by this time, the summer cycle has kicked in and it hasn't. It is chilly outside right now and that is strange for late May.

It is chilly outside right now and that is strange for late May It's exactly the same here. I can't believe it's late May and most evenings I'm having to put the heating on for an hour or so at night to take the chill out of the house. Simon |

We're still waiting for Spring to hit here in Chicago, but that's normal. I usually don't break out the short trousers until June......Jake

Actually, it's no more whacked out than usual. Let me remind all, Chicago has two seasons, construction and no construction.

The high Monday afternoon was 73 and the low was like 47, Tuesday I was in Huntsville and it didn't reach 70 while I was there. The humidity is slowly creeping back up though and by this weekend it'll be in the mid 80's with a heavy dew in the mornings.

And as of now we have the state's low temp of the day (33 this morning) and high temp (90) There are a few patches of snow left, and the leaves on the trees are now getting serious about. Chance of frost again tomorrow morning, so we will have to cover all of the newly planted flowers this evening. We may not see 92 again for another 2-3 months, and it could be that yesterday was the warmest we will see this year. Time will tell. |

It's been so hot down here this past week that Monday I heard a tree thank a dog. On Tuesday it was even worse and the tree was begging the dog to come back and piss on it again.
Seriously, mid 90's all week with high humidity and none of our normal ocean breezes for daytime and thunder boomers for late evening.

No, it's gotta be at least upper 70s for me. I don't want to drive the ladies wild unless it's absolutely necessary.

The weather here is jumping from the mid 70's and over cast to the mid 90's and clear.
You pussy's I wear shorts all year round here. Hell when it's 40 outside it's short weather.

Joe, you would fit right in here on campus. Some people wear shorts down to 20 degrees. We even had one guy who curled in his shorts last winter... idiot

While we're updating regional weather -- here it's been raining almost steady for 2 weeks. I look like I've been in the H2 hot-tub for 3 hours.

It has been hot. Damn hot. I finished my yard work today right at noon and headed to the pool. The pool read a balmy 91 degrees . Maybe I should have not been so quick to dismiss adding a chiller to my heat pump when I redid the whole system a couple of years ago. Anyway here are two sure signs it is now summer time in FL. The first crop of bananas is coming in   And it is time for the hard top to go back on the T-bird for a couple of months   |
