Those fun summer days are back again

Ah yes, good old hot and overly humid summer days. The utter joy. That’s today’s weather forecast. Nice isn’t it? For non-metric readers, that would be only 87F but with humidity it feels more like 104F. Hayley has soccer tonight too. There’s a 60% chance of thunderstorms and can I just confess that I truly hope it starts to POUR later so that the game is canceled so we don’t have to go out? There’s a high heat and humidity warning for the Montreal region, telling people not to go out unless they absolutely have to, so the idea of having Hayley running around a soccer field while George and I take turns walking around and around and around with Breanna is less than appealing.

The thunderstorms themselves come with warnings of severity, including hail, high and damaging winds, and strong lightning. Woo! I want to be inside my living room watching that instead of sweating and melting into a pool of goo on the grass at the park.

You know that it’s hot when you have your window unit air conditioner running, along with a ceiling fan and a table fan to help it out, and the room has still only cooled down to 28C (81F).

Pass me a cold and fruity beverage please. And an icepack. Who’s bright idea WAS it to move into the top floor apartment facing the blazing sun anyway?! I wonder if it’s too late to move into a nice, cool ground floor apartment at the back.

  1. Basement apartments are the way to go in humid climates! It’s pretty hot and humid here as well, but I’m not exactly doing a whole lot, and we have lots of ceiling fans and I have my table fan.

  2. We already have 30-32 degrees here with 87-90% humidity. Want to visit? lol

  3. Well, what finally happened was that we ended up not going to the game anyway even though it wasn’t technically cancelled. It finally rained and thundered somewhere in the wee hours of the middle of the night and it cooled off to a reasonable temperature so that yesterday we got to go to the park without dying. And today I actually turned off the AC and it’s a nice decent temperature!

  4. I’m sorry. 🙁 Right now in upstate New York, it’s 67 degrees! 🙂 Our A/C isn’t on! Just had to throw that in there. I hope that it cools off there soon. Have fun at Hayley’s game! Oh, we honeymooned in Quebec City back in 2000! It was so much fun! We stayed at the Chateau Frontenac! 🙂

  5. Summer at last, im in Scotland and would love a day that was just dry enough to take the kids out for a walk. We had better weather over easter

  6. Hi Sherry,
