What's the joke? I start my new job in a dayless shop and summer suddenly begins.

We get four to six of these typhoons every year, they are necessary to fill up the reservoirs or we would have water shortages. Unlike the southern US all houses are concrete/stone so the damage is usually restricted to mudslides, falling trees and signs, and flooding. Damage to houses is minimal.

Mmmm, lovely, warm winter afternoon:

Here it's been either unbearably hot and humid, or rainy, for the past two weeks. (Prior to that it was just rainy.)

Not very good biking weather.

Same here!

For the past two days it's been 30C + in my apartment, and it's so humid that you face water resistance when you walk!

Can't cook, can't put clothes out to dry - they just won't, and can't do anything involving moving... I feel like an old piece of chewing gum thrown on the pavement a noon, fully exposed to the sun, sticking everywhere and melting just enough to get smelly and gross.

I don't like summer in general, but this one just might kill me. Give me farking winter now! (then again, I'll probably complain when it gets here!

)

it's blooming raining - again .......

yvanleterrible · 08-15-2009, 09:04 AM

First heat wave of summer.

I have work to do around the house. We have no AC. This house can be really hellish.

zelda_pinwheel · 08-15-2009, 10:35 AM

it is hot here ! my thermometer has apparently gone missing so i can't tell you just how hot (maybe it found a nice cool place to relax...) but i'd say it's at least 30°. yahoo weather widget says 32°. that sounds about right.

GeoffC · 08-16-2009, 04:54 AM

sun's shining, clouds a-building, trees are swaying ....

nekokami · 08-17-2009, 01:30 PM

Hot. Humid. Yucky.

Ordinarily I don't like air conditioning. Yesterday we dragged the portable air conditioner up out of the basement and set it up. We didn't even care about the musty smell.

Today I'm in an office with AC. It actually feels a bit too cool in here-- at 79 F (26C)!

Verencat · 08-17-2009, 11:59 PM

32.9C in my bedroom. I want to keep the drapes open to get some wind in, but that means I have to wear a pj...though decision.
