God, I can't wait. Summer sucks.
Yesterday, we had our first measurable rain since May: 1.8" at our house. Pretty wonderful.

More or less stuck in house. Didn't snow that much and ots frozen over so black ice all over the place on hill suburbs.

The weather has warmed in the past few days but it is definitely feeling more autumnal in the mornings.

This has been going on for a couple of days now and the situation there keeps looking worse. An entire town of 12,000 people burned to the ground.

We've had thunderstorms last night and today.
Today's was VERY LOUD.
Nice rainbow, though.

Man, weather this summer has been great up here. That's probably very worrisome but hey.
Hurricane Hilary is going to wreck southern California for the first time in 80 years.

Good luck southern California.

Tropical storm Hilary is here!
We'd had a run of nice days - warm, with a nice breeze. The management here scheduled an outdoor food truck event for Friday, so I sent in my RSVP for a free voucher... and then it rained. And rained. And rained. On Friday I found everyone with umbrellas and jackets and raincoats, standing under the trees, waiting for their food orders. It was a case of pick it up, and get back inside ASAP because it was WET out there.
I did get my free waffle and a few pieces of chicken (they'd sold out of the chicken sandwiches and fries by that point). I decided to supplement it with fried rice and plum sauce - just mix the rice, chicken, and waffles all together, and add sauce.
Waffles and plum sauce are a surprisingly good mix.
It's quite chilly now; someone said snow was forecast for the mountains. Haven't checked to see if it actually happened. If it's going to snow anywhere, BC and NWT need it more than we do.

I hate headwinds. Chch would be a good city for bikes if it weren't for headwinds that stop you dead in your tracks. It didn't matter which direction I turned, a headwind was there to stop me however it could.
Bealey Ave lacks bike lanes going west, too. So that was also fun...

My cat gets very skiddish whenever high winds and thunderstorms come around. I sometimes see him, just when the weather gets crappy, sneak into my room when I’m not looking playing my games on my computer, that he chills under my blankets.
I usually end up cuddling Maddy for a few minutes. It's important to stay calm so they realize that if you're not worried, there's less reason for them to worry.

Some rain after long drought. Can smell the wet soil.
And then a return to, what is it in Spain, 70 degrees?
Here it's bad too, still 22-34 each day. Will it ever end?...
