You might want to put aside any plans for the beach this weekend. The high temperature on Saturday is forecast to stay one notch below 70 degrees, threatening the record for July 27.

Lows are expected to dip into the mid and upper 40s in some suburbs Saturday night, with northern suburbs experiencing slightly colder and southern suburbs slightly warmer temps conditions.

Button up. (Say, wasn't Hussein just there bitchin' about the hot weather?)

Damn this global warm... I mean, climate change!

I’m sure Al Gore has an explanation for this.

They can rub some coal on themselves to keep warm.

That’s if Barry will allow it.

Same story in the Twin Cities.

I guess you have to call it “mild Global Warming” or just weather.

It’s going to be an early fall. IMO

[Windflier]

Sure could use some record low temps in Dallas - Ft Worth. We’re melting.

I’ve noticed spider webs that usually come out in early fall already on the flowers and shrubs. This may be a short summer.

Actually the Summer here has been milder than normal, haven’t had nearly as many triple-digit days here as in the past few years.

[laplata]

Where are you located?

I’m in southwestern Colo. and I think it’s going to be a short summer, too.

Tough to notice when you work outdoors, like I do. It's just downright h.o.t.

High in the low sixties here tomorrow. Let's do some carbon trading......

[KarlInOhio]

All I know is that it has been wet, wet, wet. Most years I am down to mowing once every couple of weeks (or couple of months last year) in July. It has been every four to five days since Spring this year.

Highs in the low sixties? Wow. I can't even think with that.

Of course, five months from now, we'll be outside working in near freezing conditions.

Ah well....such is life. Thank goodness we even have work to go to :-)

In Southern California, it feels more like October than July. It even rained last night. July almost never sees rain.

Cooler temperatures are a sure sign of global warming.

[Lakeshark]

This is unheard of this time of year.

Global warming, um, er....oops......Climate Change at work......

Last year it was climate change global warming...

Five months from now we'll be outside working in genuine freezing conditions....

:-)

Now you finally get it. It's the theory that defines all things living or dead, explains all, knows all, it's the perfect theory.
