Sunny and 23° reaching up to 29° by late afternoon. Sadly, the weekend doesn't look as good. As the old joke puts it, what do you call a sunny day after two days of rain? Monday!

The last couple of days it has been around 20℃, from today it'll get warmer. Today it will be around 25℃ and the rest of the week it'll be between 25℃ and 30℃. I'll experience how warm it'll get in my attic bedroom. Luckily I have two windows opposite each other, so I can at least air the room out at night. I also have my good fan on standby.

After a week of high humidity and near-record heat, with temperatures in the 90s (F) and "feels like" temperatures in the 100 to 105 range, today was a welcome change! A cold front blew through this morning, breaking the heatwave without bringing any rain. The high temp for the day was 78°, the sky was variably cloudy, and it was downright windy -- and the humidity was very low. It was great to spend some time on the back deck with a mug of tea and something to read (when I wasn't daydreaming).

It’s 12.30 pm and it’s already 29C. Tomorrow and Thursday will be similar. However, from Friday the temperatures will drop to 21C, a lot better. At least there is a bit of a breeze today and it isn’t humid for once.

Intense heat builds up in the afternoon - > 100 F -- too much for these old bones - gave up outdoor walks and now on the stationary bike

Another hot day, 28℃ is the prediction, so at least a little cooler than yesterday. Right now (9 am) it's already very muggy and over 23℃. The combination of high temperatures and hay fever are giving my nosebleeds.
It should get cloudy and more windy during the second half of the afternoon. From tomorrow it'll be cooler. I'm also hoping for at least a little bit of rain to help with my hay fever. |

77 degrees F. and very humid. Expecting a thunderstorm any time now (none earlier today). Thursday and Friday were high 79 and very low humidity. It felt cold when I walked out wearing sleeveless, but I got by. That was glorious weather (sunny too).

21°C and on and off light rain. A pretty decent day to be outdoors.

Another cooler day, it'll be 22℃, but it will be mostly cloudy. Which usually means it'll be muggy. From the late afternoon there's a chance of rain.
Next week will be similar in temperature to today, with rain predicted for almost every day. |

In the 70s F. Saturday and Sunday but so terribly humid that it's hard to walk around out there. I went out once at 7pm yesterday to do an errand and walked about a mile. It was bad (also very crowded in my neighborhood) and I haven't been out yet today.

Rainy and cold.
At 6 am it was really nice and sunny, but now (9.40 am) it's cold and rainy. The maximum temperature today will be 16℃ (normally 19℃ to 24℃ this time of year), and it'll rain until mid afternoon. Then it will mostly dry up until around 9 pm when it starts again. A nice day to have a 5 hour tattoo appointment (which means reading time). |

Sunny and 19°C. Up to 25°C today with the weekend hitting into the low 30s. No rain predicted for the next 10 days which, to me, means time to put the umbrella next to the front door.
