The weather here in Glendale Arizona is already in the high 90s!!!
Next week it is going to be 97 degrees on Thursday or 36 degrees celsius!
I can smell the Summertime hot temperatures around the corner---with the nice oven blast air of 110 degrees and over. I guess that is what I get for living in a desert.
I miss winter
What was the weather like today where you are from???
Well everyone in Australia is melting as per usual.

I live just outside Chicago and it's snowed the last two damn days. Last Friday the temperature didn't get above 32 degrees (that's freezing) and hovered around 17 degrees for most of the day. Positively ridiculous. I hate snow and I hate cold...but at the same time I get really sick when I go outside in the heat (I avoid going out in the summer if the temp's going to be above about 85-90 degrees). I've actually passed out from the heat a few times not fun.
