I'll believe it when I see it. Apparently it was supposed to rain all day today(at least here in toronto) and be cloudy in the afternoon. I got caught on the bike when it started pouring all of a sudden. Idiot's cant predict an hour ahead, let alone days in advance.

All you had to do is look at the radar to see where it would and did rain today. What is not predictable is Tstorm cells tho you can see them on radar they pop quickly - with that level of heat severe weather is very much a risk.

One of the riders in southern US said 98F at 2pm and that's what is heading out way.

Lol I made it. Country side isn't too bad. Most parts have a cool breeze thanks to the trees.

Went up to Haliburton and back today with a bunch of friends. We rolled at 8:30, was quite a pleasant ride up, thankfully some cloud cover north of Lindsay so the sun didn't crispy fry me.

Ride back was tolerable, but yeah, it's hot...you wouldn't want to be stuck in traffic or sitting still outside for very long while you're geared up.

Got home, jumped in pool, had a cold beer, sitting in the AC now.

Rode down to Toronto from Alliston. Left the house at 6:30 this morning and was back home before the real heat set in. Was a great ride.

 

[roadrash]

Ride back at night was fun. Luckily no cops. Soaked in sweat, but worth it

Gaia is alive and well, as this wonderous planet maintains equilibrium. Last week Antarctica posted the coldest weather ever recorded on earth, -98C. This beat the old record set in 2013 when -95C was recorded. It ain't over...till it's over.

on the road at 7, was comfortable until about 10
then the jacket had to come off
still managed ~ 500 km
then came home to the AC and the best motogp race so far this year

That would be weather not climate and likely due to our destroying the ozone level.

On the climate front ...would you care to explain?

It's coming, was not forecasted until this evening when the cold front (that's finally going to drag away this humidity) arrives.

Clouded over completely in the east end here now.
