After weeks of 100 to 104 temps, it is now 59 degrees. We had a real
"gully washer" with thunder and lightning. TuTu was very nervous and kept winding herself around my feet. I opened the closet door and told her to hide in there, but she wouldn't leave me. It is still raining but not a "downpour". TuTu is now watching the rain run down the front window. Two kinds of weather he Too hot and Too cold. The rain is welcome, but the thunder and lightning are not. MLB |

MLB We have had very high temperatures, not typical for the UK, for the last month or so and the only thing that seems to break it is a thunderstorm or cloudburst. It's down to 70f today after Thursdays terrific downpour with flash floods again. It's much more comfortable for us poor folks who don't have air conditioning. We don't need it normally. Tweed |

Cats here are dropping massive amounts of hair. They had mostly quit their
spring shedding around the middle of June but it's been so hot that they're doing just as much now as they did in May. |

Hibernating gets old after the first few days. Especially when you are too uncomfortable to actually sleep. Jo |

As in "it's 75 degrees today, 82 on the humidex"? Joyce |
