You are getting close to the time of year where everyone remembers why they moved to Florida.  This summer was brutal.

November through March is absolutely perfect weather.

We're pretty acclimated now. Sure, it's hot, and humid. That's why we have a pool. :)

Just back from our walk, when we started it was quite pleasant, gentle breeze, etc., about the last mile was sweaty.  We'll go to the pool in a bit, not a single person was in it, a handful were sitting at a table, but someone has six floating inner tube type things in the pool.

96 degrees and very humid here yesterday

18 holes of golf was miserable, then a birthday party w/o air conditioning

today is much better - 83 overcast and a slight breeze

golf will be much more pleasant

We're not going to see high temps below 90 for another month, it looks like.

Also looks like there is some development in the tropics. Hopefully it stays as mild as it has thus far. Only one named storm, and it fizzled as soon as it got named.

Yeah it's been a little TOO quiet in the tropics so far this summer.  Here's hoping it stays that way.

I wonder if there's any correlation between hurricanes in the Atlantic, and the el nino/la nina weather patterns?

Probably so - I haven't gotten into it all that much.

When I retire, I'll be taking meteorology coursework to learn more. Maybe even get an MS.

El Nino squashes tropical cyclones in the Atlantic. La Nina often correlates with busy seasons. Also, even though it's been really quiet so far in the Atlantic, a full season can be packed into the 6 weeks starting on August 20. None of the past busy seasons cranked up before mid-August. HurricaneTrack is a good channel to follow on YouTube, he's a longtime hurricane chaser from North Carolina, and he does a very nice job with videos.

Also, this is on track to be one of the top 5 hottest summers ever in MSP. There have been 17 days and counting above 90 here. Average to date is 9, total yearly average is 14, and there have been lots of hot Augusts and Septembers here.

Summer here has been very normal, probably a bit more rain, but it usually comes in a 30 minute dash and then clears.  I'm just back from running, there was a decent breeze.  Forecast highs in the 80s, only 81°F on THU but we'll be in sunny California Tue-Sun soaking some rays, drinking some wine.

This is the only thing out there right now, and it's not being given a great chance to organize.

GR is right though. We are approaching the teeth of the season - right about now through mid-October. Two months of keeping our eyes open.
