it's fall here too, the sky is terse and there's not much humidity, and it's only 25°C.

Very pleasant, I wish it could be like this all year except during the summer.

The weather will be getting cooler, finally. Screw you summer heat. :biggrin:

We have a little cool front coming in. Mid 90's instead of 100+.

We wont see 50 degree mornings until the end of October.

I actually enjoy the summer weather here.
 
I don't like when it gets over 21C unless i'm at a beach/lake.

So much of summer is warmer than i'd like.
Autumn is nice. Cool at night (i can sleep at night!) and warm during the day (though week's forecase is unseasonably warm right now).
 
Went boating yesterday and it was fabulous. I'm all for 365 days of summer with a few cool nights mixed in. I love the heat and absolutely hate the cold. Fall won't be here for another 3 weeks or so hopefully and we still have temps in the 90's through next weekend. More boating weather, yeehaw!
 
I still have the feeling that this year's summer didn't happen. Seriously, I want my share of the summer, I still need some good weather at least through September. I didn't have any holiday and I wasn't at any festival or any other event. I shouldn't take my work so seriously. :X
I am just hypnotizing this list of events here in Toronto and thinking about TIFF or Beer Festival, the other events look like crap to me. Is there seriously anybody who still listens to Pet Shop Boys? Meh...

I'm pretty sure they get heatwaves there too just like other nordic countries.
Also maybe he's fat.

We do get heat waves though they're mostly in winter, and a heat wave in winter means anything above zero. :biggrin:

Actually we do get summer heat waves, maybe one per year. A couple years back we had one for a whole week, it must have been at least 30C the whole week. I had no AC then and every place was sold out. I had to order one online and by the time I got it the heat wave was over. It still serves me well though. Even on a non warm day my office gets pretty hot since I upgraded to a core i7. They had actually opened up all the arenas to the public so people can go cool off, mostly elderly people and people with babies.

I feel the same way, it went by too fast, and I spent most of it working on and off on my basement so I got absolutely nothing done outside. About the only thing I did is clean the gutters real quick and take down the Christmas lights. Crazy to think I have to put them back up soon. I like to do it before the snow comes as I just climb on top of the roof and do it from there. Goes faster.

Yes, this is how I feel. I don't mind the heat if I am on vacation, but I can't stand it when I have to slog to work on a daily basis.

Shorter days are going to depress me unless I can get more outdoor projects/work done on my house. Still in the middle of construction. I've got a thousand+ sq feet of concrete to pour this week and then I get to finish trying to seal my house up for the winter before the days get too short.
 
Upper 90's and sometimes over 100 here plus humidity. Coolest temp are in the mornings and they are in the lower 70's. Yay for summer in Southern USA. Oh, and no rain for the last month or so.

Ahh Christmas, that is about the only thing to look forward to in winter. It's indeed the most, wonderful time, of the year. (I know you were singing when you read that)
 
Was 99 degrees last Wednesday or Thursday. High of 78 today. Then a steady climb back into the 90's again by the weekend.

Stop teasing us!
 
It just started getting hot here. I've used my cheap blue above ground pool more times in the last week than I have all summer. It's awesome.

Meanwhile in Nigeria, it is HOT AS HELL.

It is funny to hear people in the US talking about heat.

Define "Hot as hell". Parts of the US are pretty brutal. The southern half of Arizona can be 115+ degrees from May through the end of September. Parts of Texas can easily be above 100 degrees for several months on end. Louiana, Alabama, Miss, and Florida can all be in the mid 90's or higher with suffocating humidity. That's no walk in the park.

Dry heat is different that heat+humidity.

I guarantee you Nigeria is worse than any part of the US. My "home" is in southern TN. I have been to most hot places in the US. Also to Iraq and Afghanistan through the summer on deployment. I have a picture of a thermostat at over 120 in Afghan, then another picture of the thermostat busted because it was maxed out. The US is not that hot comparatively. Especially since AC is virtually everywhere. Nigeria is fucking brutal, because it has extremely high humidity and the sun is on another level here. It seems every place I go with the Marine Corps is hot. Senegal last year in July, ugh. I was in Djibouti last month, possibly the only place hotter than Kuwait I have ever been in. Fucking miserable.

Edit, not only that, but we have to take anit-malaria pills. Side effects are, dehydration, diarrhea (becasue the food here doesn't already do that), etc. Combine that pill, WITH the heat? I don't want to hear about your 115f. 😉

The Pumpkin Spice Latte being available at Starbucks, coupled with a lot of Oktoberfest beers making their appearance is all the fall I need right now. It won't be getting cooler for at least another 2 months or so.
