Today dawned sunny and hot again, but there was rain late in the day - but just enough to tease the plants. I visited the physio again today for ongoing issues. Things generally feel better after the appointment. I visited the Farmers Market for a pick up for friends. Menacing clouds raced through the blue sky then with the bit of rain starting an hour or so later. Before sunset, the skies were again mostly blue. Overnight temperatures are to be in the mid-teens Celsius. That will keep the house cool for sleeping.
There seems to be some changes in the weather patterns that herald the ending of summer. There will be more very warm days and less cool nights, but cooler patterns will prevail as we move into autumn. For those who enjoy swimming in the ocean, the warmer gulf stream waters off our coast stick around into October. Even on cooler days, the water remains warm. This is also the reason that hurricanes strengthen in this part of the world during August through October. Earlier in the season, the cooler waters defuse the strength of tropical storms that head north. This year a large number of storms has been forecast, so we must wait and see what lies ahead in that domain.
Many people enjoy the low pressure systems associated with tropical weather. In this region, surfing is a beloved pastime. That thought brought a song to mind. <smile> Stay safe. Enjoy!
