All I can say is fall better get here before long!!!

I've had enough of sunshine, sunshine, sunshine and non-stop heat. Even though this has been a "mild" Texas summer there should be a limit on how many days cowboys 'n girls have to put up with over 90 degree temps!!!. wah,

I want cool air, falling leaves, to hear the sounds of the high school band practicing for Friday's game wafting through the air early in the mornings, to wear a rust-colored sweater, gray wool slacks and knee-length boots not the constant sound of lawn-mowers and everybody in eternal sunglasses, shorts and tank or crop-tops !!! Please, Mother Nature!!! Cut us some slack!

If it makes you feel any better, our high was 86 today in San Antonio.

Ooh, I love Toronto in the summer. Was there 15 years ago and couldn't believe 72 degrees in July.

I am encouraged but totally jealous that a fellow Texan has got it 10 degrees cooler and we're not all that far apart. Makes me want to whine even louder.

Doesn't that just sound like heaven on earth? 72 degrees in July!!! I remember the last bit of one summer, Mother and Daddy wanted us to get away before school started to enjoy some cool weather. We went to Red River, New Mexico and when we arrived late night the next evening, it was 36 degrees on an outside thermometer beside the door of the office of the lodge! I don't think it cleared the 50's during the day the whole week we were there. One night we spent freezing cold but enthralled beside a mountaintop lake performance of locals under the moonlight at midnight. There were hikes, picnics, days of horseback riding, crafts, shopping, barn dances, community meet-ups and campfire sing-a-longs and story-telling in the evenings. Then we came back to Dallas the beginning of the next week, school started immediately and everybody baked for the next 3 or 4 weeks.

A couple years at I was sick of 80 degree nights with 99% humidity so I went camping in the high country of Yosemite. It felt so good that first night there sleeping in 30 degree temperatures in my tent at 8600 feet. Couldn't believe it when nights were in the forties once I got to 11,000 feet though! I was having to use my sleeping bag completely unzipped.

I don't really live in a hot climate, but we defiantly experience all 4 seasons here. I'm feeling very torn right now.

Halloween

and then there's

Snow, allergies, and sinus infections

The leaves on my pear tree have started to turn yellow and drop!! It wont be long! Hang in there Jeanie!!! It is coming!! It is way up in Canada....25* in some place....but it is heading this way!! Polar train!! By the time it reaches us, it will only be in the 70's...it will be better for you up in DFW.....brother in Paris keeps telling me, "Hang in there, it is coming!" So, I believe!

This thread is amazing because I complain about weather here but I'm from Oklahoma and it's HOT there even through November.

I miss Oklahoma weather but its nice to read about all of the US weather here and makes me feel silly complaining about 70 degrees as hot here.

I am pale, though, so I do burn in the shade...

Makes me feel better to justify my unjustifiable complaining..!

yorkiefan_ · 09-12-2014, 07:04 PM

Oh my God, we had the first real cold front in a LONG time blow in today. Couldn't believe a temperature of 78 this afternoon. First time in a long time I have been able to take Cookie out for a walk at 5:30PM. Every day for months I have been walking her near sunset when the heat isn't so crazy. I can't believe the high here in the San Antonio area is only supposed to be 76 tomorrow. I can guarantee I'll be spending tons of outdoor time with the Cook tomorrow!

P-Nut Mom · 09-12-2014, 07:31 PM

We're still in the mid 90s in Northern CA. What's a jacket? I wouldn't know, just as we don't know what water is here. It will probably be hot through most of October. The boys could really use a break from it, but I like it hot.

TxVicki · 09-13-2014, 04:01 AM

AWWWW it's so nice here in the DFW area this morning. It is about 56 outside and feels so good.

62 down here. OMG, I love fall. We'll only have two days of Fall before we go back into low 90s until October probably, but I'll enjoy today and tomorrow!

yorkiefan_ · 09-13-2014, 06:12 AM

Wow does it feel weird to put on a sweatshirt to go outside with Cookie to play around! Still 62 at 9AM. Oh I forgot what this weather felt like!

OMG you need a sweatshirt??? LOL Nope not me at all. I have shorts and a T shirt on. I live for for weather like this. To bad it's only going to last a few day's and then back to being too warm until at least October. LOL

It's really windy though. On a sunny calm day I'll wear shorts and a T-shirt down to the high 40s, but on a cloudy day with 20 mph wind I'll throw something with long sleeves on.

Hot here this weekend still. Over 100 yesterday and will be again today.
