Well, here's some weather information to cheer you up: It's 1.8C / 35.3F here, partly cloudy. Length of day: 2h 38m. Tomorrow will be 8m 26s longer.

Originally posted by chancremechanicNot wanting to do the conversion, and not caring anyways, it is supposed to get up to 82F here today... if so, it will be a record for high temp on this date, like it was yesterday when the 80F high temp beat the record of 79F...
In San Diego, California today it was 29C; this morning it was 15C; sunny, cloudless skys.....
Needless to say, this is why I live in Arizona 🙂
Originally posted by The PlumberGet them here in Northern Ontario all the time. Like dancing curtains of light. A couple of years ago, one was extremely bright that the moon couldn't outshine it.

Doesn't matter - I need the sun. I would, however, love to see the nordlys some time. Have always wondered what it (they?) looked like.
Originally posted by reader1107Sounds dreary enough. Where abouts?
We just broke a record for the most days without at least one hour of sunshine -- 15 days. I missed the four seconds the sun was out yesterday. I'm thinking of cutting out a big piece of yellow paper and taping it to the wall so to help me remember what the sun used to look like.
