Well it's 10c now midday and we have had snow all round on the mountains and with it rain expected flooding tonight or tomorrow so I suppose this is more in line with what some of you would see as a great summers day :y2:

ive got my shorts on and jesus boots ill be round this afternoon to sit by the pool with a :y54:
 
Jesus boots?? It took me a little while, but those might be sandals....maybe?

No Dave, 10C isn't a nice summer day even for here :y2:
It's a lovely 19C right now, but it's only 9:45 AM. 32C expected later today, but the humidity is low - so far.
Probably won't get that high here on the coast - at least I hope not.
 
Well it has turned very hot this afternoon hitting 11c :y2: Oh boy I just don't know how you guys do it CRY
In the spring and fall we ride all the time in 11C. I'll admit it gets a little frosty after a while - but we know where all the coffee and donut shops are along the way :y2:
Ride a little; warm up a little; repeat as required :y15:
 
If I must I will ride in the low temps. The one rally I used to always attend in winter I would be riding at an average temp of around 6c without the wind chill factor. However to be wet and cold well these days it just does not work for me. BGRIN
 
Rbeans, I just hear there is flooding in Edmonton. Are you high and dry?


Yeah we got about 4 inches+ of rain in less than two hours so it just overwhelmed the storm drains. One of the main highways through town flooded out in a low spot and people had to swim out of their cars lol. Had a lot of grape sized hail come down hard to, was quite an awesome storm!

Rains moving into the area again today. But on the bright side, the temps have been below 85 DegF (29C) all week. On the bad side, the Louisiana State Bird has now made it's presence known. . .

Right now the temp is 6c outside and 10c in my house. This is the difference with us in Africa we are not kitted out for the cold winters. Basically they are so short we just tough it out when it comes. The warmest place for me right now is in bed with the hot blanket on
