Shame About The Weather

In the middle of last week the high for the day was in the mid-70s. Today it is predicted to be a record-setting 90 degrees. That's too hot!

The capris I pulled out of the back of the closet have been returned there, and the shorts that I thought I was done with came back out. The condo is closed up, so now instead of the sounds of nature I get to listen to the drone of the air conditioner. Tonight when I go to bed there will be no brisk fresh air to look forward to.

Tomorrow is forecast to be as warm as today, then for the rest of the week each day will be a bit cooler until things are back to where they should be on the weekend. Thank goodness.

    1. Yes, if there's nothing else to talk about the weather is always there.

    1. I hope you do! Then I'll probably be complaining about the cold :-)

  3. Is this considered Indian summer?

    1. I think a true Indian summer there has to be a frost first. It didn't get quite that cold.

  4. We are just as hot here on the western side of Missouri... even my daughter's dogs don't want to spend much time outdoors!!

  5. Same here. It rained heavily all morning. Then it was summer again.

    God bless.

  6. We've returned to the hot weather too, and although I admit I love it, I will definitely miss the cool air coming in the window as I sleep.

    1. My perfect sleeping weather is chilly enough to burrow under the covers.

    1. The beginning of fall is always up and down temperature-wise, but this is a particularly high 'up'.

  8. Crazy unpredictable climate! I ised to wear sweat shorts on field trips in September and October years ago. Not for many years, now. I am ready for cooler weather, too.

    1. I used to have a great wardrobe of Halloween sweatshirts and sweaters. After not needing to wear them for several years I put them in the donation box. Now I have a couple of tee shirts.

  9. Missouri is fickle, always has been. I recall a Christmas day the temperature got up into the 60's... followed, I think, by a below zero New Year's Eve.

    1. I agree, but any extended periods of unusual heat or cold annoy me.

  10. WE drove back from sunny warm Italy to pouring cold rain in Wales! Then yesterday it was lovely! The weather is all topsy turvy I think.

    1. It occurred to me that maybe I need to adjust my perception of what 'normal' weather is and embrace heat all the way through September.
