Getting chilly here.

Temperature here seems to have dropped considerably, I've just turned the central heating on.

Met office claims 10pm @ 14C with "feels like" 12C and dropping. I'm sat here with a wool cardy but still close to shivering, just hope the radiators don't take too long to warm up.

Anybody else feeling less than cosy?

Been cool here for a few days. Sunny today but much cooler now. The last couple of evenings I would have lit the fire, but the Winter coal has not been delivered yet.

Still in the 90's (F), but overcast. Our Monsoon Season has been torrential this summer - lots of flooding, and trees being uprooted, and lots of car wrecks. My son loves car wrecks as he works in collision repair, so it's his bread and butter - the more crashes, the more he earns.

We won't need the house furnace until mid November - we racked up a huge power bill for last month with the extreme number of hot days.

Always think of Arizona as being hot and arid; hadn't realised you had a Monsoon Season.

Here already it feels like autumn, decidedly cool, with too much rain!

Always think of Arizona as being hot and arid; hadn't realised you had a Monsoon Season . . .

It is, mostly hot and arid, but we get most of our annual rainfall in the Summer months of July, August and September, some 9 to 11 inches of rain per season. In the later afternoon while it's about 109°(f), the clouds move in, a mighty thunderstorm complete with deadly lightening and torrential rains - the outside temperature drops suddenly to 72°(f), and then two hours later, the clouds clear and the temp goes right back up to 109°(f) at which point we are actually drier in the shower with the water running than it is outside with all that humidity.
