but not me!!! You're right Sally, this is way beyond "Indian Summer". It's not quite as bad here, in the 80's and so far today there's a breeze. But I wouldn't want to go outside in that boiling sun.

When I look out my windows at the mountains, the colors are becoming beautiful but then it sure doesn't feel like a normal Oct. Think my AC will be going on shortly. CHILL.....hee hee.

(Wish I could use those cute emoticons with my old webtv.)

Yes, thank you Lord for my AC!!!!

Finally some cooling temps here and a wonderful breeze to boot. We tied a record yesterday at 88. Rain and temps in the high 50's are on their way. Without a/c, I've been miserable and re-adapting to humidity sucks. Can one lose weight by sweating?

I packed all my warmer clothes when I moved back here and would have killed for a summer top and even the dreaded shorts. I'm going to enjoy the temps for soon enough the bitter cold and the dare I say "s" word will be here. Geez, I sure hate to be cold.

Hope everyone is moderately temp-ed today!

Hi All I don't like either too cold or too hot -- chilly is the way I like it ---Beth where are you in Ohio? -- Fall is my fa*orite time of year and so far our Fall suks!! A little snow would look real good right now --- -- P.S cherie canada is not a good place to be if you hate the cold - LOL!!

It is the usual cold, damp, drizzle weather of the PNW! What's this? I am growing mold on my arm! (kidding)

Hi Sally,

We live in a small town east of Cleveland. Our house is about 1/4 mile south of Lake Erie. We've got really chilly temps (50's) and drizzly cold rain today, BRRR!

But I'll take this over the heat and humidity which has dogged me since my return a month ago. Just don't send me any of the cold "S" word, yucka mucka.

How about you?

Well, it really depends on where in Canada, vs. where in the US . . . at least normally.

This last year has been horrible. We got two BIG snowfalls last winter, and some bad storms. The worst part was all the rain though.

Vancouver weather is normally very moderate, and definitely moreso then the eastern part of Canada and the US. This is actually a good environment for MSers.

I still HATE the cold.

Cherie

Strange weather here, too. Four days straight of near or at 90. Today, low 70's. Next three days are supposed to be in the low 60's. Thankfully, the humidity has finally gone down.

My favorite temperature would be low 70's, but I guess that would get boring after awhile. We moved here three years ago from Arizona, and I'm still trying to get used to the cold weather.

Hi Mary Ann!

A quick question -- after living in Arizona, how did your MS react there? Are you extra sensitive to humidity and do you find that in Arizona? I always hear people say it's a "dry" heat???? Seems to me, hot is hot!! Guess with my fibro, the humidity is a killer. Still trying to find the "ideal" climate. Thanks!!!

Ah ye, Beth, I remember, Cleveland. Rots a Ruk on the "S" word with the lake effect storms you guys always get there. I'm just glad you're back home where you belong.

Cherie, sounds like your weather is just as predictable as ours is here in the States......Ya get what you get. I Don't like the bitter coId either...Brrrrrrr...

This weekend, here in SW Ohio, sounds good to me - Sunny and low 60s...YAY!

Taffy your weather sounds soggy and boring - LOL! --- Judy I think you have pretty much the same weather we do --- Here's hoping All of you have the best weather for your good health

Hi Judy,

We lived in Arizona for nine years and for the first six or seven years, I did great. I was able to walk and hike, and I stayed pretty active. The humidity is very low, averaging around 10-15%. However, May to October can be blistering. Then, you stay in an air-conditioned place mostly. Winters are marvelous, my favorite time there.

The heat and humidity quickly sap what little strength and energy I have now, so I try to stay inside when it gets too bad.
