.....because I forgot, and Im afraid I may not get a reminder this year. Been no warmer than 65 and rain for like three months here....before that, snow. Feel like I live in freakin London or something. Can mother nature be bribed?

Re: What does summer feel like?

I hear ya.......it feels like April ;)

I went up North to cut some grass and do maintainance on the property that we hunt on, and it was 43F when we got up there. It never got above 46F.....plus it was lightly raining :mad:

I love the winter. I love it when it snows, and I love it when it gets to 20F below zero............but once the grass gets green I sort of like it to warmer.

We've been wondering where summer is down here in Indiana. So far there have been no hot days kind of makes a person want to just go outside and spray aerosol cans for the greenhouse gas.

I know... what's going on with this season? Coldest, rainiest May & June in a long time.

Reminds me of the summer of 1991-- Mount Pinatubo, a volcano in the Philippines, blew up in June '91 and created a mini "nuclear winter" effect-- the rest of the summer was mostly cool & cloudy.

This is the coldest June I've seen in years. Highs in the mid 90's, low humidity, not a cloud in the sky.

I envy you "warm state" guys every winter, but I think this is the first SUMMER I'm going to envy you :D

Local bay water temps are 8 degrees below the average of the last 5 years. Fish migration and populations are about one month behind last year locally screwing up the commercial markets. I actually turned the heat on in JUNE on Long Island last Sunday when it hit 59 degrees in the house at 6am!!!

Today the high is going to be 94 degrees and supposedly the heat index will be about 100 degrees. I'm sunburned pretty baldy from last weekend actually.
Pack your stuff fellas, plenty of room for ya down in here in Texas.

Re: What does summer feel like?

Hmmm... I think we officially got out of the 2 year drought we were in last weekend.

Summer has been intermittent - it'll be 90+ one day, then it will struggle to get to 80 the next. Nights are 60-70's.

You know, I'm not complaining. Whatever the season - extended spring, or summer is late - I don't mind, this is nice weather.
