Exceptionally nice weather after the last few days of rain. Sunny, 22°C and a slight breeze.

Heh....Headline from the Borowitz Report in the New Yorker: "Obama's Barage of Complete Sentences Seen As Brutal Attack on Trump."
Also, from the same source: "Obama Renews Lease Inside Trump's Head" "'It's the really the only Trump property I'd ever consider staying in,' Obama said"
If you're following the Democratic virtual convention, just wait until the Republican one next week....Shitshow galore! Kid Rock will be there!

Early in the week, when daily high temperatures were flirting with the 100 degree mark, the forecasters dangled the prospect of rain by Thursday, or Friday.
It dawned clear this morning and when I checked the forecast, the precipitation prognosis had disappeared.
Yet, now...We have not been denied our promise.
Big wet raindrops are coming down. They are fairly far apart, but it is real and thing are getting wet. It is 78 degrees,
Is bliss.

It's a dry rain.
It's at least ten degrees cooler.

We had a real live gullywasher come through right a dusk yesterday.
Everything is still wet this morning.

It's sunny and warm with the occasional shower. Since there's a nice breeze it's quite doable.

We're back to bad weather after yesterday's really nice day.

Rainy here today. Yesterday was very windy but not so much today .. just wet. I can live with it; I don't like it being too warm.

An absolute blissful day of moderate temperatures, sunny skies and white puffy clouds.

We're getting a big storm tomorrow, apparently.
If I had any hatches I'd be battening them down*

We are getting lots of rain. And continue to have some wind.
Battens are strips of wood. I suppose hatches refer to ships, and you would nail battens across them to stop them blowing open or leaking. The landlubber equivalent might be boarding up your doors and windows.

The weather has been appalling here for the last few weeks - wind and constant rain. I was kept up all last night with Storm Francis. I feel sorry for people holidaying in Wales. I feel sorry for myself, right now.

You've had it rough in Wales, juju. We have had a lot of rain over the past few days but it has been spasmodic with a few sunny periods in between rather than just being miserable all day.

My sister went to stay for the weekend with another sister in Broad Haven (west of Juju). They had lots of wind - and even stayed off the coast paths one of the days.

It's cold here. 10C right now and only going up to 19C this afternoon.

I thought 10C was pretty warm for your area?

It would be in the winter! But it's still August.

A temp of 19C in August? That sounds pretty normal for almost September in Montreal. It is still Canada.

Sunny and a very nice temperature. I'll enjoy it inside while cleaning Frodo's room.

Well...That was odd.
We had a freak wind storm that started at about 5 pm, when the temperatures were in the 90s. Heavy east winds out of the Columbia Gorge, from the high arid plateau on the other side of the Cascade Mountains. Hot, dry winds gusting to 50-60 mph. Desiccating. I briefly lost power and had to spend an hour or so restarting my PC. Of course, the stiff winds blowing from east to west carried all the wildfire smoke from eastern Washington right through the gorge and spewed it into the air over Puddle City.
Added to the overcast, and the temperature, and the diffused light, sundown was....otherworldly. Portentous. Like the coming of the Vril-ya.
I suspect my new neighbors are returning from 'the Bay Area' to install and invest the new altar at the new Temple of Azathoth - PDX. That would explain the conditions....
