I feel sorry for my kids. They don't have any snow. We can't go skiing or play icehockey. Only a few days a year now with snow.
30 years ago, when I was 7, we had snow for months every year.
$hit weather.

Thank you. In my younger days when I took an interest it was all about a boy called Gretsky.

34 deg C in my office today, ... average temps of about 33 for the rest of this month in Joeys I think, with very high humidity. But at least I'm not back in Welkom in the Free State, cos it's 38 deg C there today (and I'm sure the weather bureau have the thermometer in a fridge, cos generally whenever they said it was 38, it was more like 42 (in the shade, with yer bum in a cooler box).
I would LOVE some SNOW too!! And lordy, ICE HOCKEY, hell yeah!

Up in the mountains the skiiers are having a wonderous time... here at the beaches, rain rain rain.
Its funny seeing seeing SoCalians reactions to rain...
Drivers: "its wet, so roads are dangerous, therefore must drive faster"
TV: "Headline news! Rain hits Southern California. We go straight to our man at the beaches..... Paul, how's the weather? Thanks Tina, been raining here for almost 3 hours straight, and the weather center says there's more to come"
I particularly like the TV news term "localized flooding", which I've finally realized means "big puddles".
