Suddenly, it's raining really hard here. It was just like a scene in a tv sitcom--a loud crack of thunder, then a waterfall of rain right after. DucksNuts, I'd send you some if I could.

I'm at the pubic lieberry here in HOTlanta. It was 95 yesterday and probably will be so today. I spent most of the past week at Cape Lookout, NC. I will post some cool pics from my trip in the "travel" string next week.

It's 80 here with 76% humidity. Doesn't sound bad, but it is. Just went to the store for milk and I'm sweating. It feels like the weather is right on your head, pressing you down.

I'm in San Jose, CA - much better today and the last couple of days compared to last weekend. (only supposed to be 83 today) I have air conditioning upstairs - so pretty much for 2 weeks - I didn't go downstairs. At all. I finally bit the bullet and bought a room air conditioner for downstairs. Last Sunday it was 108 here at the airport and muggy as all hell.

This is the regional weather summary for today. I'm about in the middle of the map.

I'm sat on the 6th floor, looking out over Leicester and watching the breeze dance through the city. However in this office it is 26 degrees. That's how effective our aircon is - warmer in here than outside

Two of my co-workers come from Africa - one South African & one Kenyan. This morning they were sighing over the fact that it's getting cold and we haven't even had a summer yet.

I won't be happy until it's below 20 - that's my idea of summer!

It's getting warm here. I'm in Queensland Australia. Brisbane to be exact. It's the last month of winter and the maximum's of the last few days have been around 25 degrees celcius. I'm thinking that's pretty nice compared to 4 degrees and foggy down south.

The air is literally liquid here. Very good for the skin, though.

Hot and humid and just miserable.

I keep telling April that we should move to a place with less humidity, but I've compromised: we will travel to cooler places than St. Louis during the summer.

Crikey! Sure are lots of Aussies here in the Cellar.

I listen to ABC on my shortwave nearly every morning (evening for you guys). Australia Talks Back. You know that show? And the news, of course. How about that Costello character? And John Howard just keeps going on and on and on.

Cheers!
