Is this the grossest, most depressing weather ever (specifically the DC area)? Jeez, by the end of May we at least start getting a taste of warmer weather – I’m not expecting 80 degrees and sunny every day especially since it’s not even June. But this is ridiculous. I keep obsessively looking out the window every few minutes looking for the slightest hint that it might clear up or even stop raining for a few minutes. I’m going to go home and bury myself under blankets until it gets nicer outside.
I bought my boys dirt bikes for Christmas…they’ve had mebbe one or two days since then of decent riding weather.
I also just got back from Bike Week down at Myrtle Beach…more of the same.
OG apparently hates bikers…
Great. First the east cost steals all our snow this winter, and now you’re stealing our Spring. It’s 80 degrees outside, for christ’s sake. Give that cold air back! Right now!
Ethilrist, you may HAVE it, and then some!
Doggone…rappin’… frappin’… gaahhhhh! Gaaahhh! **%*&%&$##@#!!
That’s about the most eloquent statement I can come up with to describe this year’s weather here in the Northeast.
I second that post, Kn*ckers. The sun just came out here, and alas. I see the clouds forming again.
MISSING: One warm, clear Memorial Day weekend.
Last seen at: East Coast, USA.
Last seen on: Memorial Day 2000 (maybe!)
Last seen to be wearing: Blue sky, a few white fluffy clouds; rich green grass coverall, decorated with daffodils.
If found, please return to the nearest beach.
Less than one week. That’s how long I have until I move from Massachusetts to Florida (for good, this time). I’m counting the minutes.
The Devon Horse Show is, literally, a wash-out this year. Horsies up to their midsections in mud.
Not so much the East, but the Southeast.
Here in Montgomery, when it rains in the summer - it tends to smell like a big, wet dog. I kid you not.
Right now, it smells like a big fish. My lawn is supporting mold growth. The sun comes out for 2 hours, and the grass grows 2 inches.
The sun came out today and the grass is threatening to suffocate the house. It has rained for almost a week now so we missed last week’s mowing.
I was beginning to think we were all going to float away!
I bought the munchkin a summer wardrobe but I’m still squeezing her into her warmer clothes so she looks like a rag a muffin most of the time.
Where oh where did short’s weather go?!
Sun… what’s that? Is it that big yellow thing in the sky that make it all nice and warm outside? All I’ve seen for weeks is gray sky and rain.
I feel like a character in that story by Ray Bradbury, “All Summer in a Day,” where the little girl who has seen the sun tells all the other kids about it but it’s been raining so long that no one believes her.
The sun does exist! I think I saw it last year sometime…
So, something’s seriously wrong when my sister is bragging about the weather there to me.
Last year, it snowed on memorial day in Colorado Springs, CO.
This year, it rained. All weekend. In New Jersey.
What happened to the sun? My doggy’s sad.
Sun? Warmth? Y’all can have it. It’s been too warm already.
One hundred and eight degrees.
Ah, Palm Springs in the summer (or should I say spring?)
At least it’s a dry heat.
Grrr. I was thinking of posting a gripe, but it’s been done.
Part of my yard is over a foot tall, as I haven’t found a dry day to cut grass.
Beyond that, I’ve five contracts that are waiting for the damned rain to stop.
Although I’m going broke for lack of work-it is nice to sleep until 10!
And here in NE FL we’re having the opposite. It’s been hot hot hot and dryer than normal. I think we’ve only gotten about half our normal rainfall for May, and that’s come in the last week. I’ve had to run my AC full time for at least a month.
We did have a nice rain last night, but no more in the forecast, and temps in the 90s this week. I spent the weekend in Baltimore all damp and gloomy, and I come back home to bake. Ugh.
I am thoroughly SICK of this. If I had reliable information that it was sunny and dry in Hell, I’d kill myself right now.
weeps openly
I truly don’t know how much more of this I can hack.
