Re: british weather
I have both Toronto's and Coventry's realtime weather reports on my google homepage and delight regularly in informing Canadians over there that the weather in England - even in the midlands - is outperforming theirs in terms of temp. and lack of rain
Wintertime soon though... Roll on 5 months of damp, grey gloom while they take pictures of ugly things turned beautiful in the snow.

Well that would be one more confirmation that the weather is warmer in the south of Calgary than the north. We didnt see any. I realised this morning that we only have single gloves left from last winter. How does that happen? I know they came home from school with them last year! I think they get together with the single socks that disappear in the washing machine.

Re: british weather
Well, when I moved back to Canada the one thing I consoled myself with was getting back to real winters (love to ski) and real summers(love to sunbathe). We've had neither this year in Guelph, Ontario and it looks like it's going to be a long winter......snow or no snow!!!

Re: british weather
Thinking the same thought. Since we came to Guelph it's rained every second day. Just like Scotland really.

Re: british weather
September was a bit of a wash out in the Royal City. We had the furnace on two nights ago but it's picked up again.
Hot tomorrow then? Maybe a walk in the Arboretum is in order?

Re: british weather
Disappointingly enough the promised doom that was Tropical Storm Isaac proved to be yet another damp squib yesterday. The forecasters get it so wrong here that just as we get blase about 'oh another storm' we're bound to get hammered. Probably during the winter with another 70cm of snow day!
Today is grey and mild. A John Major sort of day then.
