 Airport has A/C, so the rare occasional 90-degree-Farenhieit day can be really intolerable.
Here on the south coast of the US, the weather isn't "shite," it's downright scary. Tropical Storm Emily (note that initial "E" is the fifth letter of the alphabet) is out in the Carribean, poised to become a hurricane any hour now. This is the earliest date in history for the fifth "named storm" of the year.
I've just paid my annual dues to "Alaskans for Global Warming". Keep farting and driving your cars folks, its working.
I'm dreaming of fog. Nice cool fog.
Acually, at the moment our weather in Juneau is normal- foggy, a little drippy, air sweet and cool, temperature about 60.
it's wonderful! Long may it last! Better if you don't have to do any work though....
The temperature in Ottawa at 21:00 Z was 30.4 degrees Celsius, which is 86.4 degrees Fahrenheit and not cool by any stretch of the imagination. The Humidex was 40 Celsius, 104 degrees Fahrenheit. The air is so thick I feel as if I'm wading through it, and my trachea slams shut with the first hot breath of bus fumes on Rideau Street. I'm running on talcum powder and asthma drugs.
This is the third big heat wave we've had since Victoria Day, and it's expected to last the rest of the week. Summer's not even half over.
The morning news on CBC started out with Gurment Grewal and his campaign expenses but quickly segued to the weather, which is apparently "excessive" (their word) all over Canada -- pissing down in BC, floods on the Prairies, stinking hot across Ontario and Quebec, and heavy fog in the Atlantic provinces.
Did someone insult the Weatherman? Would he or she please apologize?
Hey, I'm enjoying our cool showery weather on the coast. This is the first time in many years that I haven't been stressed about the high forest fire hazard in our neighbourhood. Global warming? maybe, but the weather here seems closer to what I remember as par for summers, when I was a kid. Maybe the grey damp of the past 2 months is just a 50 year cycle after all....or maybe, when I was a kid, a couple of rainy days in the summer spoiled a lot of stuff that seemed important to me then.
and time to head for the shade or a swimming hole!!
pour on your head, sprinkle the lawn and run thru, etc.
I didn't see the naked people, was it anyone I knew....?
It been over 100 degrees here everyday for the past week or so' at least 10 degrees above normal. Today was 102, tomorrow is supposed to be 104. Phoenix was 113!! We've got AC and evaporative coolers aka swamp coolers, but even they can't keep up when it gets that hot. My daughter, grandson and I spent the afternoon in our bedroom with the ac on high. 
If you will recall - this season, last year - was one of the coolest on record for the UK - and this winter, snow actually fell in Cardiff.
The UK heatwave is lovely in the garden etc but it's BLOODY AWFUL in the warehouse!!
While the temperature at 30 celsius is a bit on the high side in London today, it doesn't feel as humid as it sometimes is. In the middle of the UK heatwave two years ago we were in Budapest and although it was hotter over there, the low humidity made it much more comfortable. When I returned home, I stepped off the plane at Heathrow and just poured with sweat - something I hadn't done in Hungary.
i agree, its been too hot, and my arse has been really swetty, after sitting on leather seats all day.
ps= goverment should give free ice creams to people wehn its hot.
Given that many UK dwellers are complaining of the heat and that water shortages, hosepipe bans and even standpipes are being threatened, why do weather forecasters insist on claiming the these hot dry days are an improvement on cooler days?So, you need to find the perfect personalised gift, but you don’t have time to search online, let alone go shopping around Hong Kong...

Vision 2030 of Cloud Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (CERPS) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Abstract
Saudi businesses rely on effective data management to trade along their internal and external supply (value) chains and must continually monitor and upgrade legacy data systems. To understand these processes, this study explores the experiences of six diverse Saudi firms as case studies: an air transport data system, vertical integration of global firms' subsidiaries, a value chain system, and entrepreneurs taking advantage of cloud opportunities. Rather than following the literature in focusing on the decision making steps to upgrade organizational data-based resources, this research considers how the firms integrated cloud technologies with their existing or new business models. The case studies were conducted post-implementation of cloud data projects to qualitatively assess the expectations of owners and executives of firms from their initiatives.
Overall, the findings were that firms' experiences when online resulted in better integration with upstream international suppliers, greater cost control, and adapted and new business model advantages. Of the cases, two retailers and an intermediary/retail stationer used their new cloud-based data resources by expanding to online sales platforms. The largest firm was able to use its industry leadership to develop online data integration with firms through its value chains. The remaining firms were more circumspect. The data infrastructure firm merely formed a cloud sibling company to enhance its core business. The airline's industry data provider moved all its clients to cloud services, and the wholesaler similarly agreed to contract with its value chain's digital provider.This paper is presented as an introduction including the purpose of the study, a short literature review, methodology, results, comparative analysis, and conclusions. There was insufficient opportunity to provide a detailed discussion placing the cases into previous findings, although this empirical study is focussed on cloud migration outcomes rather than change factors..This article explains a few things about online calculators, and if you’re interested, then this is worth reading, because you can never tell what you do not know.
See how much you can learn about computers, if you take a little time to read a well-documented article? Do not miss the rest of this great information.
It is safe to say that almost everyone, mathematics, computer science or business administration used a calculator in any form. It can be very cheap models and base, which are in any store of scientific calculator or graphing expensive, questioning some PCs and extends the more complex functions can be purchased. Unfortunately, these computers are often very expensive, and they still believe that the user can understand how some of their complex functions. Of course, if you’re the kind of person who spends about $ 100 on a graphing calculator, chances are you know more than a little math and formula. Those who do not have the money to make this expensive equipment electronic or not, how to use them to make the resolution of complex algebraic equations have another option in the free online calculator.

Today I have another card using the lovely masks and sparkle by Imagination craft.
I have used the thistle mask together with Amethyst and Sage Green Sparkle medium. The sentiment is by Hero arts and I have mounted on purple then white cardstock. Another clean and simple card.
I managed to clear my ironing mountain yesterday with the help of a couple of films to watch in the process. I always find having something interesting to watch always makes the time pass much quicker.
The plan this holiday was to start work in the loft and my son's bedroom with a view to decorate it but I have found the draw of my craft room too great! Whoops. I still have a couple of days left to start the whole process but the loft is such a massive job I really don't want to go there. With the added bonus I don't know
