Let's rant about the weather!

It's been in the 80's here with a nice ocean breeze...lol

Over here in Minnesota, we are also in the middle of a major heat wave. Oh, how I hate these .... ><

I'm sure the whole state is going into shock.. From what I've heard there are only three seasons there. Winter, still winter and construction.

It's so hot here in Kentucky!!! In glad my piggys are in the cool AC

I know this is probably preferable for many, but it bothers me just the same ... It's supposed to be around 87 here today and that's too hot for me. Up until a couple weeks ago, the highs were around 65-70 ... So 20ish degree increases are dramatic here. The next couple weeks will be like 75-85, too, which I personally find quite annoying.

I've got frozen 2 liter bottles in for my rabbits and guinea pigs that they like to lay against and I have tiles in for my chinnies, who really suffer the most when the heat gets up there. I also let them take more dust baths than normal because the dust cools them down. Ugh ... I can't wait till fall.

It's 97 here in NC but it's supposed to be 100! :melodrama then it's supposed to start cooling off in the lower 80s.My
piggies are kept in ac 76 degrees.

79 degrees today. I stayed indoors. Too hot for me! It's supposed to be 81 tomorrow and I have to take a trip to Trader Joes. Ugh.

I don't complain! We have only one month of summer type weather here, so I enjoy it while I can. I do all my outside stuff in the morning and evening while it's cooler. Of course, our 80 degrees seems pretty cool compared to some of your temps!

My rescue pigs are all spoiled in their air conditioned room.

We've had temps as high as 105 here in the last two weeks, plus a huge storm last week with 90 mph winds. We had no power or water from Sunday to Tuesday night. It looks like a war zone around here. Huge trees were completely topped, power lines down and lots of property damage. Every block has piles of debris from toppled trees that will probably be there for awhile since there's still so much clean up to do. My neighbor has a whole house generator so she let us use her hose to fill buckets so we could flush our toilet since it's run by a well pump which needs electricity. We have a gas run generator so we had our fridge connected but couldn't hook up the air or well pump the way they're wired. We did keep our sump pump hooked up, though..... My company is doing remodeling in the offices so our department is working in the warehouse with no a/c. The temps have been has high as 88 in there with industrial fans going. We had the guinea pigs in our lower level until our power came back on so they did fine.....It's been exhausting.

I sit here in envy of all of you in cool weather. It is 5:23am and I have not slept yet tonight. I sit here blurry eyed staring at the pc because it is WAY to hot to sleep. I returned home today to my AC being broken. Luckily I was not gone to long and the piggys did not suffer to much. I am in Florida and tonight it has not gotten cooler then 83 in my house. :/ Also while traveling today the AC went out in the car..... . Hopefully the house ac gets fixed tomorrow. Good thing we have ceiling fans in every room.

My son took this photo after the storm. The wind speeds were unbelievable. We have a big tree in our yard that has debris from other trees caught in it that we can't get out. We'll need someone to come out and try and remove it all.

Oh wow pinky. Glad you are all OK though. Looks scary!

It's 51.8F here in Bonny Scotland we and have seen the sun shine maybe once since the one fine week we had in April. Currently considering buying a kayak with the amount of flooding we have had here. I dream of warmer weather

Im with you MishImpossible, 55F here in Ireland, wet and overcast as usual, so jealous of you guys

I moved from Arizona state ( it has a lot of desert-like areas) to Washington state (rainy). I think clouds and rain need to be appreciated more. It makes the landscape green and beautiful. Oh, and if you've ever had a heat stroke, you'd never complain about rainy weather again! You're very lucky to live in Ireland!

Ha its hard to appreciate it when you see nothing but grey skys pretty much every single day, all summer long. A couple months of sunshine thats all I ask

It's been 90-105 around here for a few weeks. It did rain yesterday though, which was nice.
