it should be 100 here in southern California but its been staying at a 75-80 lately, i want it to be 100+ weather for the pools and stuff.

i really think our earth has shifted but our climate has stayed the same which causes our weather to be in different areas than its been in the past. < this is my assumption.

the weather has been very weird lately?????


edit: btw this is a great post i cant wait to see more feed back from others

Same here. It almost hit the 60s today down here in LA county. I also stopped by Santa Monica to visit their promenade the other day and it was covered in storm clouds and drizzling.

I have two apps on my phone telling me different weathers for this week. One says it'll be around 79-83 and the other says 88-90. (average)

Goodness... winter will be fun this year!

It's forecast to be 30C at the weekend ... I believe you guys call that 86F :D But right now it's a very pleasant 25C. But it's been very hot (45C - 113F) in southern Europe recently.

We've had temperatures in the high 70s or low 80s every day for over a week now in London, it's perfect!

Although to be honest London Underground isn't a good place to be when people are sweating :(

We hit 100+ a few times and it made my BJJ class without any AC available...interesting. What with horrible humidity that gives regular temperature reports of:

96 degrees actual, feels like 106 degrees

it is taking me a bit to get used to always stewing in my own juices, as it were. :p

72, expecting a high of 91. Pretty bearable for this time of year, and definitely cooler than I remember from years past. I'm in the Rockies btw.

102 Wednesday, 98 Thurs, onyl supposed to get up to 92 today.. With heat index, it's more like 115-120, 110-115, and now maybe somewhere between 95 and 105 based on temp + humidity as it has been. Rain last night cooled things down a bit :D

110+ most of the day, it's meant to be hotter next week though.
