We started having the clouds and lightening Wednesday early evening (girls were still at practice.) Last night, lightening, thunder, wind, and some rain throughout the night, was still a little damp when we left the house at 6am. Been humid for days. Today is cloudy, hot, humid.

It is October 1st but it still feels like it is August very humid in the Boston area. It is raining right now and this weekend is going to be mor fallish only in the high 50's to low 60's.

Once I got out it was windy, lots of white clouds.. but mostly piled up over our mountains and the ones in back of Bill/Pamy and such.. pretty nice day. Of course I was in Newport Beach, probably hotter inland. Feel for people where there is flooding..

I'm just glad the heat has finally abated. I've had a cold/flu this week (lots and lots of coughing and intermittent fever, weakness, etc), so I didn't step out of my apartment building between Monday afternoon and last night. It's bad enough to deal with the heat, but to deal with it while you have a fever, too? No thank you.

We are having the best weather we've had in six months. Loooooooooooow humidity with winds out of the north and temps only in the 70's and 80's during the day and 50's and 60's at night. I can finally turn my a/c off at night and sleep with the windows open. It is amazing what weather like this can do for one's spirit. Everyone in N.O. is in such a good mood. This is our kind of weather after the brutal summer we had with 115 degree temps.

A couple of hours ago, we had rain, wind, thunder, lightning and hail that would not let up. Guess who needs their rain gutters cleaned out? Yup. What a mess. But it is quiet now.

Sounds like last night and this morning here. I went to a craft fair in Costa Mesa and they has all booths outside and many of the vendors got hit twice.. last night and again this morning and it was a real mess for some of them. Wet tables, tablecloths, scrambling to save their wares.. And then some of the booths were in the sun this afternoon and it was kinda steamy for them.

Our weather has gone to crap here. All day today was pretty cloudy, and then about 11 it got windy. And cool. By 4:30 this afternoon, it was downright cold...sweatshirt, jacket, blanket weather for the girls practice. It should not be like this this early in fall here!

One word: Sucks. (And we had such lovely weather over the weekend, after the monster thunderstorms left us on Thursday.) I'm not ready for winter, and yesterday certainly was winter-like. Cold and drizzly all day and much the same today. On the plus side, it's supposed to warm up for the weekend. I'm definitely hoping!

Oddly enough, the sun is now out and there's lots of blue sky. Pretty windy though, and it's a cold wind blowing.

The high temps have dropped 40 degrees around here. Yesterday was indeed sucky.. I clocked 97 miles on my travels through OC and saw accidents on surface streets and freeways, including a minvan/suv "parked" in a bus shelter, which collapsed most of the shelter. Also went into a grocery store in Fullerton and their roof was leaking. Downed power lines in places and some power outs I guess. And of course rain. Right now.. or a few min ago it was sunny and bright, yet the paper says showers (go figure.. yesterday they had this stupid big SUN icon but it rained and rained.

In my best pirate voice - Argh, it be cold here matey! There no freaking heat in half our suite. (A lot of our neighbours have the same prob.) An igloo has got to be warmer. The plumber/boiler-guy whatever, anyhow he was here today and only made incremental improvements. I was told he's coming back over the next couple of days. I am one of those folks who sleep with quilts in a heatwave, so I am NOT a happy camper during this abnormally cold weather.

Hmm I think I got a sucky phone call in the middle of my sucky post about the sucky weather this morning.. and never posted. We had early sun but then it started raining.. I drove in and out of rain through a bunch of cities but when I hit Fullerton, rain.. then all the way down to Newport Beach and you could tell it had rained a bunch there. Back to Fullerton and then partway home, lots of rain. Hopefully a bit less of that tomorrow. But in a week's time most places here have dropped 40 degrees from last week's high temp day.

Cool and then cold. No rain, but cloudy. Really sucks how much cooler its gotten in just a couple days, like Sea said, it's a pretty drastic temp difference!

We are still having the best weather we've had in six months. The temps have been in the 70's during the day with low humidity and a nice wind out of the north. Lows in the 50's and 60's - so I've been able to sleep at night with my windows open. Absolutely glorious weather - puts a real spring in my step!!!

Rained off and all all night long (and kept waking me up). Rained until about 6:30 am and appeared to be stopped. Until now. It's really coming down again. Forecast is rain until around 6pm tonight. Lovely... NOT! And oh yeah, it's only freakin' 63 degrees out! (On the plus side, I pulled out a pair of jeans that were tight on me, and they are loose. Loose enough that I could actually pull them off -- with a bit of pulling but they came off -- still buttoned and zipped! Getting my arse kicked by a personal trainer is so totally worth it!)

<waves back to Scooter and adds a purr!> I would really like to have a summer before we head straight into winter. Really. Please? (On the plus side, our "fire season" of Sept-Oct has been pretty nonexistent!)

That's amazing Costa - and we've had one of the most brutal summers on record. However, as far as we are concerned in New Orleans: Summer 2010 is OVER!!!!
