That's what temperature my house is when I get home from work. Y'all are weak.We had a Yellow weather alert the other day, for temperatures up to 27 C (80f). It's very warm for Ireland.

It hasn't gotten above 70f in a week or so here. We had a scorching hot spring--in April we jumped from a snowstorm to 90f weather and a wildfire alert in the space of a week. It seems like summer so far is trying to balance it all out.We had a Yellow weather alert the other day, for temperatures up to 27 C (80f). It's very warm for Ireland.
It sounds amazing. We looked heavily at Idaho before falling in love with Wenatchee (plus my husband scored a really good job here). Being from Alaska, this is all new to us. My son still gets excited when he rubs the sagebrush and it smells like sage, lol. We found this awesome trail in East Wenatchee that loops around the Colombia River and has all these interconnected streams with lush trees & vegetation (and snakes!!) that we wade in almost daily. Let's just say that none of us miss Alaska anymore.As with all Western states, it's so big that there's much variety. Northern Idaho is much like around Wenatchee--fir and pine, scattered lakes, plenty of snow in the winter. Southern Idaho, otoh, is desert. Yeah, the Sawtooths are dramatic, but mostly it's a thin layer of soil over basalt and sagebrush for days. This is disguised somewhat by the flow of big rivers--the Salmon, Boise, Payette, and most of all the Snake, which spawns a network of canals and attendant farms. Get five feet beyond the reach of water, and it's back to sagebrush and rattlesnakes. Go a thousand miles south and it looks exactly the same.

Seriously, 80 degrees. That's a fine summer evening here. Best golf weather is about that temperature. 80 degrees. Pfft. Come talk to me when it's a hundred out.80 Fahrenheit?

During May our air conditioning was out and it was 85 in the house during the day for a few weeks. Luckily we got that fixed before it got into the 90's outside. Our pool got too hot to swim in.

Not quite there yet in Western New York. It's 90 again today. I can live with the fact that winter lasts almost six months here, but this heat is killing me.Broke 100 today. Welcome to Southeastern New York.
I think I pulled a muscle at work this weekend. One of my feet hurt so I was compensating for it as I walked around all day, and now the outside of my calf hurts. This job is so bad for my body. Walking on poured concrete floors 35 hours a week takes a toll.
To be fair, I also have multiple sports injuries from high school and hypermobile joints. And I wear converse instead of proper footwear because I'm vain. Those are definitely contributing factors. But yeah, everyone my age is so tired all the time. It's depressing when you're supposed to be in the prime of your life and you already feel like your body is falling apart around you.Ouch. It seems to me like everyone under 35ish is aging prematurely. Too much stress. Too much of this harsh, unnatural world.
I think we're going to get a thunderstorm here any minute. Everything's gone ominously still.It's in the high 80's here. Humid and the clouds are heavy and swollen with thunder, but no rain yet.

Ever felt the tingle just before a lightning strike?I love all kinds of stillness, but ominous stillness is a favorite.
