How is the weather?

Glad that you have a safe "den".  Nasty weather including high heat headed my way.

Thanks, K. Be safe!

Never heard of them I was there when a pumpkin appeared on the top of McGraw tower. That was more than 25 years ago.

A pumpkin?!  I've heard of some strange things before--like a car on top of a building on the MIT campus....

It made national news, I thought

Whoever did it seems to have climbed the steps inside the bell tower, but climbing over the eaves and scaling the tower roof with a 60 lb pumpkin was in impressive feat.

Miserable here in Finland. No summer yet. +20 degrees C has been hard to reach. Constant rain and nighly frost temps.

Sounds like what we were experiencing here on the east coast (US).  It's now gone to the other extreme: 80's and upper 90's.  Whatever happened to mid-70's, sunny, with a gentle breeze?

Climate change, of course.

Currently 28ºC in central Vermont, expecting a high of 34ºC (93ºF) for both today and tomorrow.

Yep. So depressing. I have experienced ONE "summery" day in Helsinki (it was June 15 I believe) when it actually went over 20°C a little bit. So many of the days have been +16°C, overcast and some rain. Do I have to move to Spain to experience the warmth of the Sun on my skin?? 

Well, at least my apartment stays cool... ...so there is that, but this is so boooring and lame!

In Finland, 9 months of the year is chilly to very cold and the rest 3 months can be warm, but this year that hasn't been the care (except for the one day I mentioned above and even that one wasn't THAT hot). We have missed so many of the potentially warm days already... ...the only hope is August will be exceptionally warm, but we'll see...

    The weather is evil. Tomorrow it's supposed to reach 99°.

The weather is evil. Tomorrow it's supposed to reach 99°.

There'a always at least one heat wave near the end of June/start of July in which Massachusetts gets to be hotter than Florida.

It's currently (circa 3 PM) 90 F degrees where I am in SoFla, "feels like" 99 F, 69% humidity.

Which is why the parade for the reigning Stanley Cup champions was held on A1A ("Where The Boys Are" territory) and not near their actual arena, which is about 15 miles inland and built on what used to be the Everglades.

    I'm happy for the Shnozze. Suspend that, NHL!
