The Summer Wind...
« on: August 02, 2004, 12:16:51 PM »
...keeps blowin in...

...across the sea...

How have the summer temperatures been in your area?  We have had exactly one day of 100 degree weather.  Last week we had a day-time temerature of 73 degrees...an absolutely unbelievable event for this time of year.  Folks here can never remember it happening before.

My Dad, who is 77 years old, said that this is the mildest summer he can ever remember.

Heat wave just snapped here yesterday.  Woke up to cool breezes and light rain.

It made for a nice change...it has been hot as Hades here all summer.

Hmmm completely different here in Alabama. Its a typical summer; highs in the low to mid 90's. Humidity in the 90+% range, rain almost every afternoon and air so thick you need a knife to cut a hole in it to see through.

We have been unusually mild here in Dallas this summer also.  I think we have only had 2 official days over 100.  Usually by this time we are counting the days in a row over 100.

Been the same this year- maybe more humid, but we've had less air quality warnings this year.

The smog over DC, though, has been unusually dark. I hold Bush responsible.

I can count on one hand the days southeastern Wisconsin has been over 80 degrees.  Precipitation seems normal... maybe a little less.  But i'm not complaining :)

Sling is right.  Our electric company is so shaken by the low temperatures, they had to get the rates increased so thier executives could get a raise,..again.

The worst winters that can be found are found in San Francisco in August.
