Damp chilly weather is breaking records
We weren’t imagining it: May was colder, grayer and wetter than usual. TVA consulted meteorologist Gilles Brien, who says we hadn’t seen a May with 25 days of rain since 1974, and no May with 16 consecutive rainy days since 1877 – till this year.
Monday may not make it up past 11°C, a low high-temp we haven’t seen on that date since 1964.
Brien says we can hold out hope for mid-June.

At least there wasn’t much snow this May.

And May was tornado-free, which means safe to bike.

To a hammer all problems look like a nail, eh qatzi? At least the weather’s nicer than Rhodesia. 😉
I’ve actually kind of enjoyed the cool month, it took a while for the flowers and buds to come out, but the tulips and lilacs have lasted weeks longer than usual.
