I hate this time of year too. Yesterday it was 94 degrees with about 100% humidity. Last night a cool spell rolled in and the high today is going to be around the mid 70's. This roller coaster has my sinuses screwed. I don't mind the cold (such as it is here). I may turn on the furnace maybe 3 or 4 times a year.

I turned the heat on yesterday. We've had cold rain here in VA the past two days. But its been getting colder for the past two weeks. I like the feel of fall, but I absolutely abhor the shorter days.

It was 80 degrees today...who needs a heater?
Ditto.
Record highs yesterday, 92 at Audubon Park. Cold weather on the way though, it might not get out of the sixties tomorrow and Sunday. Heaters may come on then, but it's doubtful. I like this time of year, the heat is usually bearable so outside is again a possibility rather than hiding in the a/c. But the first days the heaters do come on, miserable sinus reaction. -

I love this time of year. The summer heat has abated and the days are pleasant and evenings cool. The best part is that it'll be this way until our three days or so of winter in February.

You have to admit though that your summers are awesome. I spent the whole month of July in Helsinki. I loved the fact that at 1 am it is still somewhat daylight out. Only thing was...it made it tough for me to get to sleep. You have a beautiful country there
Timmay, thanks and I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed your holiday in Finland. July is the season to be here! I admit our summer is great - I love it, it really makes me feel alive. Hard to get sleep, sure, but maybe its meant to be that way, plenty of time for sleeping during wintertime

Fall seemed to skip Kansas City. It should be low 70's this time of year but cold, dark and dreary for the last two weeks. Really looking forward to the 300 buck gas bills.

I came home from work on Wednesday and my wife had turned it on. It has been down into the lower 40s at night and only reaching upper 40s during the day though. It's unusually cold for this time of year. When we went shopping for halloween costumes for the kids, we had to make sure whatever we got, they could wear clothes under them because it may be a chilly halloween.

Yup, evidence of Global Warming if I've ever seen it.

I remember when my daughter was born on Oct 12, of 1993 that her first halloween was snow covered. I had never seen it snow on Halloween before.

That's right. We better pass that Cap & Trade bill quickly, before global warming gets worse.

WARHAWK
Hey Warhawk :: Actually unlike these other guys winter does`nt bother me at all....It`s nice too have 4 different seasons too enjoy every year.........
I think the biggest problem this year though was that there was no fall..It went from 80 too snow overnight.
The leaves literally just dropped from the trees ( still green ) in one shot..yeah they froze too death..
I wish i could have taken some pictures ..It was a site too see......
As for the heat..Its just part of Minnesota life....My heat bill is usually not bad at all............
Have fun sweating down south !!!!!! -

My wife has been turning on the heat overnight for the past couple of weeks now. But I really think that we're in for a rough winter in the northeast this year.
