For the past few days,  I've been living in hoodies and sweats as it's been around 55-60 in my office. (No AC, just cool outside and open windows.) Starting tomorrow, it's supposed to heat up with temps in the 90s.

Global warming has Mother Nature losing her mind.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

It's now cooled down and there's no sun and I'm unhappy that I have to wear trousers again :( <_< :blush:
Let's bomb Russia!

Huge storm moved across the midwest today. Over 400,000 people in central Iowa without power, including the entire city of Ames - where my daughter lives.

Admiral Yi? You okay? :unsure: I heard Iowa City got walloped pretty badly, too.

Yi hasn't visited Languish since so I guess he did lose power :hmm:

I did lose power.  Just got it back today.

This type of storm is called a derecho; I had never heard the term before.  Straight line winds, not circular.

Trees down all over town.  My front yard looks like a bocage.  The side wall on my patio got knocked down.

Life without power is weird and stressful.

He's fickle. It wasn't that cold. ;)

It's been raining a fair bit the last few days. This morning 24°C with high humidity in my apartment feels significantly worse than stuffy 27°C felt before the rains.

What could be the highest temperature ever reliably recorded on Earth - 130F (54.4C) - may have been reached in Death Valley National Park, California.
