Oh man tell me about it!!! Was raining here from the start of the year till July3. Sitting through the boy's little leauge games shivering holding an umbrella the whole season. Then clear and mild all summer, July-Aug, never much warmer than 80s with a show or two. Now it's Sept and we've been in the 90s the last week or so and still continuing! Totally unreal weather, especially this year!
