Weather where you are?

F&%k!  Like we are one of the Hottest places on earth right now. 37C to 44C on the North Shore of the Great Lake Lakes - I've never seen it this Bad ;o(
 
Ron,  take the plunge and jump in Lake Superior. I bet even your old manly equipment will still shrivel up in that cold lake. Hotter than hell here just to the west of you  by 800km in  Winnipeg.
 
The last little spurt of summer here in Norway it would seem. 25 degrees and fantastic mild evenings with twilight pastel colours. However you can just about taste the change coming in the air. Heavy rain periods more and more common. I just did a 4 day ride on the VFR in the hills and around the fjords with my kids, bloody fantastic, and the day of forecast heavy rain we were dreading ended up a few hours of light rain. I will practice this afternoon at V?ler track north of Oslo so I will give the Lav a run and do some on the CBR600 to remind me what it feels like. There is a race meeting there next weekend but I have not entered. The class mix is not where I want to be racing, they have my pre ?79 up to 1200, and pre ?73 750, mixed in with beginners and one day licence holders on modern machinery in the same race. Having some bloke on his new R1M, RSV4sps or whatever, fresh out of the licence course in the same race stopping me in my corners is not an enticing prospect. I often practice with that mix, but to be racing with them all wound up is not for me. Karlskoga in Sweden is also happening but we aren?t supposed to go to Sweden, and have quarantine if we do, so there will be thin fields in the races. Strange times and they will become normal I fear.
 
Sounds like bullshit organisation, Lee. Are there too many entrants to be able to separate the newbies on their hyperbikes and the wise old heads on their slugs?
 
Still stinking HOT here on the North Shore of Lake Huron. 27/37C every day but night temps tend go down to about 18C and we can get a few morning showers once or twice a week. Without them morning showers we would surely bake.

Humidity is High - Wish I was in the high country with thinner air but then the Sun would fry us.

henrywillms: Lake Superior is 500 miles from me to do a skinny dip ;o)

I'm more interested in getting back into my home Wahniptea country just north of Sudbury Ontario which includes Frea Lake, Parkin and Wolf Mountain - The Highest height of of land in Canada east of the Canadian Rockies. 
 
Hey Jim,-
If you?re looking for something interesting to do, there?s an RGS Corsa for sale in Garibaldi to consider adopting on eBay...!

I know, it looks pretty interesting ........ however, I'm still trying to explain to the other half where the money went for the 3C she doesn't know about yet.

Today was 117, yesterday was 116, the past week nothing under 110, next week nothing under 112 with some days greater than 116. On average we have more than 100 days when it exceeds 100. Thank god for mountains and roads to them 40 minutes from my house to 6500 feet and cool weather (20- 30 less). Fucking fires lots of places! I hate summer in Coachella Valley.
 
Sounds a lot like Perth weather, Dave! Or Melbourne in a dry-as north-wind heatwave, days on end. I hate it too - I'm actually loving winter here in Lockdown Town.
 
Been pretty cold and damp here over the last few weeks. We've had quite a bit of rain so the frogs are happily croaking away. I like the sound of frogs. They're telling me the world isn't such a fucked-up place as the news broadcasts would have you believe.
 
Broke record yesterday. 113. Then 1AM thunderstorm. Unheard of. Cloud cover inhibiting cool down at night.
Tongue hanging out..(where's the right emoji when you need it).

Totally horrible weather here in central British Columbia. I actually got up to 30+ degrees two days in a row! Disgusting. Bring back the sub 20 weather we have had most of the summer! We can't take this heat wave!

Temps in the 30+ range have been the theme most of the summer here in NB, Jim! We're finally seeing temps around 25 and I can get out to work on my bike!  8)
