WEATHER IR NOT
our summer in eastern ontario has been quite reasonable. no extreme heat, no 30 plus celsius temperatures so far. locally we were a bit short on rain. so this morning i did a bit of watering of the flowers and the vegetable garden. we are only allowed to water every other day, even though we are right next to lake ontario. the problem is with the pumping stations (our water comes from lake ontario), since the city has added quite a few subdivisions but has neglected to add sufficient pumping capacity, we are somewhat short on the supply side. anyway, within about 1/2 an hour of finishing the watering, we had quite a nice cloudburst; watering the garden seems to do it every time, just water the garden and it will rain for sure ! we are glad we did not get the rain that fell on the city of peterborough, which lies roughly halfway between us and toronto. flooded streets and basements, and several million dollars of flood-damage. you can read the story and see the pix here >>>STATE OF EMERGENCY

Florida has been in the mid 90's for the past four weeks! Afternoon thunderstorms tend to cool it down, when they occur.
If and when the hurricane season happens, it should be a big one because of the intense heat.

In the mid-90's in Florida ... afternoon thunderstorms still ... at least it keeps the grass green!

I know hurricane season is here, but so far there's no threatening storms out there ... I have a feeling once they start they are gonna be very intimidating:)

It's beginning to get darnright hot in this neighborhood - in the 90s for the next couple of days.

Nice and hot in Hechingen! Which means it will be a nice evening in Balingen :-)

We had a very heavy thunderstorm last night at around 3:30 am.

today it felt like fall had arrived early in eastern ontario. woke up to 17 c ! a beautifull sunny day, just right for a walk along lake ontario and "a little work" in the garden: the red currants are particularly good this year (it seems that if we have a harsh winter, we'll usually wind up with plenty of juicy currants - of, course i have to make sure to trim out the branches in the fall). red currants, a touch of sugar and a generous shot of marie brizard apricot-liqueur ... sitting on the patio ... that's the life ! forcast calls for warmer weather (mid-twenties c). hbg

misti : i remember two trips to florida in particular; one in the middle of august, another one in september some years ago. when we left the airplane in miami, we thought someone was throwing in a wet sock at us ! have been back in november and january and thouroughly enjoyed the weather ! actually around the great lakes it can get pretty humid (with lots of smog) in july and august, but it hasn't been too bad this year. hbg
