What's the weather and temperature like where you live?? - 2017

But as the saying goes, "It's not the heat. It's the humidity."

The funny thing is, I didn't realize how used I was to nearly 100% humidity until I had a job where I had to travel a bit. I'll never forget that first morning when I blow dried my waist length hair, and the static electricity made my hair fly out sideways like Pippi Longstocking. Suddenly my usual humidity induced frizz didn't seem so bad.

Except it's not humid in Phoenix. It's like walking into an oven.
On the other side, it snowed up here in the mountains yesterday. Didn't stick, but it snowed. It got down to 25 degrees last night. Had to turn the heater back on, the heater in the pump house and put the heating pad back in for the kittens. Today is supposed to be rather warm, so all the gets turned off again.

Your seasons sound kinda like ours. We have almost summer, summer, still summer, and a few days that aren't quite summer.

Fortunately, it's going to be pretty cool today, with the temp only hitting 86 degrees.

Where ever you are, I do NOT want to be there! It's 79 here, and I'm staying in. By next month, I won't poke my nose out except to feed Little Bit (my feral), and to shop once a month. And THEN I'll have to go to bed to recover from the heat.

52 degrees with heavy rain and thunderstorm later tonight. It feels like it's been raining almost every day in May so far. I thought April showers bring May flowers.

The heat and humidity can be pretty miserable, but it sure beats accidentally branding yourself from touching hot metal when turning the key in the car's ignition, or putting on your seat belt. And don't ask how many times I've been in a hurry, and forgot I was wearing blue jean shorts when I sat down on vinyl seats!

GACK! That's one of the many, many reasons I will NEVER live in Florida again if I can possibly help it!

It's 82 and cloudy here. Expecting some fairly severe storms to start rolling in later tonight, up through Saturday. Won't cool down all that much, just gently steam.

Dark and dreary. Heavy, heavy rain later today into tomorrow.

 

[kashmir64]

High wind Advisory until Monday. Typical

 

[Mamanyt1953]

71 degrees and partly cloudy, although they are predicting thunderstorms. So far, so good!

 

[AbbysMom]

Cold and rainy, but it may hit 90 by Thursday.

54 degrees and cloudy. Woke up to rain this morning. It is the type of day where I do not know if I want to be cold or hot.. asthma bugging me along with allergies.

 

[Mamanyt1953]

Hot. Sunny. Humid. WHY AM I HERE?????????????

 

[micknsnicks2mom]

it's currently 64 degrees F (at about 6am), and is forecast to get up to 79! i've got a quiet day planned, and the windows will be open and kitties enjoying the warmth and fresh air.

 

[artiemom]

91 degrees, sunny, hot... and tomorrow will be hotter!! OMG!! too much, too soon...

 

[Mamanyt1953]

85 and sunny. 90s tomorrow. I'm going to start setting out a bowl of water for Little Bit. I don't want him depending on the nasty stuff in the ditch.

 

[kashmir64]

High winds, red flag day. And quite nippy. Had to turn the heater on again.
Does Mother Nature need to be reminded that it's May?

 

[AbbysMom]

91 degrees, sunny, hot... and tomorrow will be hotter!! OMG!! too much, too soon...

You can say that again. I'm already sweating.

Our window air conditioners aren't in yet. Allergies are awful also.

Allergies have been fierce. I have been so sick with them.
I cannot imagine how you are feeling, without AC...shudder....

The only thing about this weather is that I am forced to have the AC on constantly, circulating and cleaning the air. I am using the air purifiers as a back up when it is really bad for me. Not bad today, so far. But I have not gone out yet.

Yesterday afternoon, I went out on the balcony to do a bit of stuff.. As soon as I walked out there, I started sneezing! And I had been out in the car earlier.

Would like to air out the place, but not with all this pollen flying around.

I told him he should have waited until this morning. was 90 yesterday. my gardens are growing crazy=can't keep up with weeding! let's hope we get rain twice a week now so I don't have to water!
