Seriously? It’s a little after 9 PM here and it’s still 95F.
It’s so hot I have ice cold homemade sangria with sparkling water. Can’t wait to get into the new house that has a/c!

Were Gettin 90* F tomorrow out here in BFE…that is so unusual…
it was only down to the 50’s last nite…kind of balmy.
Usually we got cold winter stuff by now…
It was barely 80 today and is 59F right now. I can’t believe it. Should be another 5 weeks before we get weather anything like this. Don’t worry guys I think its coming yer way…
Holy crapping christ? That’s a good one.
Sounds like a good time to visit Belgium. Highs in the mid-upper 50’s and a bit unseasonably damp.
Not being too far from Belgium I can tell you that I’d much prefer hot weather to what we’ve got now. The cold and the dampness combine forces to chill your bones no matter how many layers you have on. We had basically no summer this year, with the exception of one week where it got to around 34c/90f. I wonder how all this will affect the hops for the year?
It was a pretty good summer here up north. One of my co-workers got a bumper crop of grapes and a local bar’s terrace has a thick cover of hops. I think the Belgian crops will be good. The Germans had a bit more of a heat wave, didn’t they? It’s them and the Brits we really need to be conserned about.
Sorry to change the topic slightly, but my dad’s in-country visiting and I was thinking of taking a day-trip to Bruxelles. Can you recommend any bars that’d be nice for food as well? Ideally a place that has a super hoppy beer available, or can do the neat dry-hopping-in-french-press trick. I don’t have fresh hops and it’s something I’d like to show him.
We had frost one morning in Bouillon back in august :o , But the weather changes so fast - cold-warm-wet-sunny all in 15mins.
Look for Viven Imperial IPA or Troubadour Magma IPA, both hard to find but both nice n hoppy.
theoman found me a couple bottles of Viven Imperial IPA (Thanks again)
The news said 113 was the high in LA yesterday. Man, you could probably get a boil going with just a magnifying glass!
After a brutally hot summer, and temps peaking in the 100’s last week, we’ve had temps in the high 70s and low 50s for the last couple days. Glad to see the heat travel to a different part of the country for a change.
Dang it we’re going to be in LA in a couple weeks! Get those temps under control! ;D
Nice and cool…even chilly…here in flyover country.
Just got back from walking the dogs - had to break out the sweat shirt this AM. Down right BRISK! ;D
Yea…it was nice walking my hounds last night. About 70ish.
It’s 72 and cloudy now. I really enjoy the fall weather the most. Cool and crisp!
Just like a pilsner. 8)
We were in the upper 80s yesterday with high humidity. Supposed to be almost as hot today. Got A/C installed about a month ago! ;D
We are debating when to turn the heat on. High was in the 50’s yesterday, 57 predicted today with rain. Fairly normal.
keep in mind that most people are never satisfied & will bitch about the weather no matter what it is. in the summer, it’s too hot. in the winter, it’s too cold. I think most folks want Camelot, including rain only at night.
personally, I’m happy right here in N. FL. I know many of you will say it’s too hot. But shit, it’s too hot most places in the summer. and while I get it, the “oh, but it’s a dry heat here, and it’s too humid there” argument just doesn’t cut it. It never gets as hot here as in many places, and if it does then it’s just another reason to go swimming or kayaking.
But it’s winter that seals the deal for me. I believe that much of the country north of here is uninhabitable for a good part of the year. I know that millions don’t agree with that - for which I’m endlessly grateful. too many folks here in FL as it is. Snow is fun to play in, but I’d rather go to it than have it come to me.
anyway, early mornings and evenings are starting to cool off. quite pleasant to take the beast for a walk. I guess ‘fall’ is on the way.
I totally agree about the snow Mark, but Florida is completely uninhabitable in the summers. :-\
We’ve got pretty much the same weather as Denny right now, hit 78F yesterday with 80%+ humidity. Current humidity is around 90%, 62F, but it will climb into the 70s today and stay up around 80% humidity. The warmth is pretty crazy for the end of September here, it’s usually 10-20F cooler. Not complaining though.
Love the snow! Never saw I flake fall I didn’t love. Always just a little bummed when it stopped. Miss the hell out of it now that I live in the south. But I absolutely F’ing HATE the heat!
I might have to resurrect the "Getting ready for another Nor’easter… " thread again this year. ;D
hmmm… that reminds me…I need to change the oil in my snowblower. 8)
Maybe this winter we can get through without losing power for 3+ days. Lost power for 2 days last year due to wind storm and 6 days the winter before due to the big ice storm.
But I deal with cold a lot better than heat…I mean there’s only so many clothes you want me to take off
