Oh boy would we love to take some of that rain from you.
LOL... There would be fistfights involved, since we are in the midst of some very destructive wildfires after a very dry May.
Luckily, it won't have to come to that as it's in the hands of Mother Nature, not us.

Winter can't come soon enough for me. I'd give a lot of money right now if I could take my snowblower out and clear big snow banks off the driveway.

Umm, no..........you're driving it, not buying it! Our kids have it all figured out already that it's not leaving here.

Ummmmm.. re-railing this thread, I too would prefer it -20° versus +30°. Not being retired yet, shovelling snow and getting vehicles out of a snowbank to work on is not my idea of fun. Nor sweating in +30° heat. If it could be nice all year around without going to +30 and -30°, it would be great. But with Prairie weather and heat, also comes this. Its a tough slug but you accommodate.
I see Winnipeg is in a humidex 37/39 today, we are at 9 after a non humidex 36.4 Thursday. We had (on my Vantage weather station) 65mm the last 2 days. Today forecast is for 50mm, tomorrow 70+mm. A bit of light rain a couple of days, then no rain forecast for 10 days at least.
The way the weather is these days, the next weather we get may be that heat from Winnipeg? And its only June 4.

We would sure trade you some heat/humidity for rain right now. We could take a 2" rain with no problem.

My Vantage Vue says its currently raining cats and dogs, it says that when its raining so hard it looks like snow. It hit a rain rate of 31mm per hour, we are at 126mm since it started raining Friday night.
Peaked at 36.3 on my weather station yesterday, today forecast 24 here and 10-15mm late today. Then this.

Lovin' it. Rain is my new favourite weather.
Maybe some rain for us next week
So our rain finally let up, now were in for humidex in the 30s.
Worked a bit on a neighbours outboard, she launched it this evening. Spectacular evening.
In case you aren't happy with your weather today, I guarantee whatever you have is better than Death Valley California right now.
