A fresh breeze has been around the last few days, clearing up the sky and letting the sun shine. You'd say we're in March or April with this weather. Stupid global warming... :disagree:

Raining the whole day here...well, I dunno if the whole day at all. The fact is that it starts raining at the exactly time I set the foot out of my workplace. Then, for me, it's rainning the whole day. :disagree:

No beach on weekend. :(

Our weather has been nuts lately. Scraping ice off the cars for two days then it's up to 'shirt sleeve' warm. Crazy.

Well it is summer over there...

Anyways, still no snow, it's like, 10 degrees to warm for the time of the year. It seems like it's autumn over here...
Grah!

Oh, after raining for the whole week, someone wiped away all the clouds for a very sunny weekend (and hot 32 ºC). But, as it's not weekend anymore, it's cloudy all the same. :D

32C? Good lord, that's nearly 90F. But then, Southern Hemi, it's SUMMER in Brazil.

It's SUPPOSED to be winter here... but it sure doesn't feel like it. It's supposed to be 63F today. (17C) I believe it was warmer than that yesterday. Weatherman says its going back down to the mid 40's for the rest of the week. (That's around 7C) At least I'll have to take a jacket to work. This running around in a T-Shirt in January is a bit odd.

That's not a top temperature. :D It can go further into 40's sometimes, even this city being at the very South of Brazil (may sound odd, since here in Brazil the far south you go, the colder it gets). ;)

We finally got a couple inches of snow and the media is referring to it as "Winter's fury!" I'd hate to think what would happen if we actually got 4 or 5 inches of snow.

Doesn't feel like winter here either, except for a huge bout of fog that has descended on the city earlier and it doesn't seem like it will dissipate any time soon. I can hardly see the buildings opposite mine! 8|

Then you live quite southern right? In the paper today was a photograph of snow and ice in the Northern US states. it also mentioned 42 deaths because of upholding cold/storm


Over here the weather is stormy, loads of wind (yeah, great when you take your bicycle to school everyday...) and not to high temperatures. It's also rainig a little.
Grah!

After so many postings about how nice the weather has been in the Texas Hill Country, I must sadly report that we are having an ice storm that has lasted four days so far and more bad weather is on the way. Brrrr.

Things are finally starting to look like winter around here. Took me about 15 minutes to scrape the ice off of my car yesterday.
