Speaking of flowers, my doggy's name is Perach. You should understand what it means.

Stupid little sister. >_>

But...was for the "wilting" and general size...let's just say that every time I see it, I feel like an important government research facility.

You know, one with a MASSIVE ENDOWMENT!

Fantomas doesn't believe you, Chig(and he's not the first either). Show him you mean business.

But please, on some chat program or something, I don't want my retinas burned by such an image.

I'm pretty hot, I could probably use a shave right now though.

Canadins can never be hot. Canada is all snow and polar bears.

We're getting 40 C days(+100 F) here and milder nights, though still a bit hot. Lots of dust in the furnace winds, so maybe it'll block out the sun and it'll cool down.

I've never seen 40C in Canada, I have seen it with a negative in front of it though! It gets to 20C - 30C in the summer in most of Canada. Also, we are getting low on Polar bears, something about the ice caps melting...

20F this morning and new snow on the ground. I've got to help someone move today and now I'm annoyed.

Post by **Freakzilla** » 26 Apr 2008 12:31

It's been in the 70-80s F here.

The weather here has been all over the place, snow flurries then in the 80's the next day, wide temp ranges, 29 at night and 75 in the day, its 58 right now.

Absolutely perfect. We have had breezy days in the 70-s and 80's for the last few weeks. One day of rain, and snow up on the sierras. We are having our annual drifts of pollen in the streets though. I swear, this year we are getting 3" drifts of pollen and seeds. The piles are getting enormous.

orald · Post by **orald** » 26 Apr 2008 17:16

After about a week of temps steadily rising to the 40's(C) it seems like all the wind-blown dust and steam from the heat have created a cooling blanket and we've been having a cooler weekend.
Days are still hot, but more around 25-30 C in the shade at most, and it got a little chilly in the nights, today I wore long sleeves for walking the dog and it was still chilly(granted, my shirts are like light pijamas at best, don't have anything heavy and thick unless it's a coat).

The pollen is pretty bad here too, I'm tired of tasting tree sperm when I breath but I think the worst of it is over.

orald · Post by **orald** » 26 Apr 2008 19:24

You're lucky it's only tree sperm you're tasting as you breath! Why, CL just mentioned the other day...

SandChigger · Post by **SandChigger** » 19 Nov 2008 22:37

Weird how that works in with posts in another thread today....

Ah, it's by no means hot here but it has been absolutely LOVELY for two days now!

This is an old pic, from two years ago, but it looked pretty much the same driving down the road this morning:

(The Pacific from the Joban Highway, just a little north of Hitachi)

Love it.

In BC - go to Osoyoos or Lytton or Kamloops in August.....

Or most anywhere in southern Saskatchewan, Manitoba or Alberta.

You'll see 40°C

How much is that in American dollars ?

40° C is 104° F

Or, at today's exchange rate, 40 cents CDN is worth 32 cents US

But you know all that, so what was the question?

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 20 Nov 2008 01:15

whatever happened to doubling and adding 30 ?

SandRider · Post by **SandRider** » 20 Nov 2008 01:21

dang. I really wanted to save this one for something less trivial ...

shit, a cool summer day

I've been out on the alkali flats near White Sands before in the dead of summer where our thermometers were reading 130. But its a dry heat!

Yeah, try 104 with a dewpoint of 75. I don't think it go quite that hot last summer, but it was close.

It's really cold here now (hides from Canadians) it's been below freezing the last few mornings and only getting up into the 50's F.

I'm going to go build an igloo...

It's colder there than it is here right now.
Not below freezing yet.

Damn White Sands reflecting all that heat back at you, not to mention the humidity spikes when we get a monsoonal downpour...
