Rain makes people into stupid drivers here, too, but only if it hasn't been raining for a few weeks. Then the first few times, it's like they've forgotten everything they know about rain and all hell breaks loose.

Oregon drivers are really special. Also, only small schoolchildren own umbrellas, and everyone just walks around looking confused and affronted at the water falling from the sky. "Why am I getting wet?" their moist little faces ask, beseechingly.

It is like that roughly nine months out of the year, and then when the sun comes out everyone's all "ZOMG YAY I LOVE OREGON!!!"

Washington is just like this. Interestingly Ridgecrest, which is in the middle of a desert, doesn't have people turn retarded when it does rain.

I have this theory that completely blocking out the rain's existence is part of the coping mechanism for living here.

It is currently 68 in E Orlando.
37% humidity.

Perfect.

It spent all day snowing with ridiculous winds, now at midnight it sounds like it's raining, which just means more slush.

I love responding, when people ask me why I moved to Belgium, "for the weather".

Outside is cold and muddy with snow on the ground.

Inside is also muddy, although with beer and dirt instead of dirt and snowmelt.

Here it is a about 35


Celsius. I guess that is around 95 Fuckenheits. It will get to at least 110 before the summer is out.

It's Maine and December so it's cold outside.  No snow yet, but that is just a matter of time.
Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

Triple Zero

3 degrees Celsius, blue sky white clouds, dry, beautiful day actually. Snow is melting somewhat  but we didn't have that much snow. Good chance to go for a run later this afternoon.

40 degrees here with 20 knot winds. Winds outside the river in the open Atlantic are supposed to be 35+ knots, which means that the windchill will make it feel like it's just about 0 degrees on deck. The good news is, we're going out into 14-20 foot seas so when the salt spray freezes onto the deck crew it will insulate them.
