Let's talk about the weather

["Mad" Miles]

Yo Waccoons,

Driving from my town to TOWN to shop and run errands, and then back to "town" to see my brother and get a free haircut yesterday, I had the following thought.

Is anybody else here in West Sonoma County (aka West County) feeling; glad, nervous, lucky, privileged, perhaps even a little guilty and anxious about the magnificent weather we've been experiencing, while large areas of the the planet; burn, swelter, drown or otherwise face the extreme conditions that some deluded dupes of the corporate conspiracy to reshape the climate for the comfort of our secret reptilian overlords call the results of man made climate change?

And when will the other shoe drop? If one thinks karmic payback is inevitable, when will we get ours for getting to ride this tsunami of climate change out in comfort?

Some complain about the cool conditions. I love them. I'm not a fan of hot days.

My brother opined that given the cool conditions this summer, we might get a warm "Indian Summer" this fall.

That should please our secret Lizard Rulers!

Thoughts?

My neighbor, a prolific gardener, complains that it's been so cool this Summer, that he hasn't gotten any good tomatoes yet. "Course, we're in the lowlands by the Laguna.

The longrange forecast I heard predicts rain & cool early in the month of September, followed by heat; a bad combo for wine growers especially.

I don't know if everybody here has seen these maps and stats yet but, here they are anyway.

Well, these last two days of heat, are some kind of reply to my original question!
