It’s Monday again, and a new work week begins.
Yesterday was the first day of summer, but you’d never know it here in Vermont. Once again, rain is in the forecast, although at the moment it looks like most of it will hold off until overnight. Even so, we’re expecting a cloudy day with a high of only 71 degrees.
Back in Alabama, it’s a very different story. In Montgomery, today’s low is 73 degrees, which is actually warmer than our expected high here in Vermont, and temperatures are forecast to reach 91 degrees. I’m very glad I’m not in Alabama. I’ve never enjoyed hot weather, and getting overheated and sweaty outdoors is one of the things that can trigger a migraine for me.
Curiously, exercise doesn’t seem to have the same effect. If I get hot and sweaty during a workout or spend time in a sauna, I’m usually fine. There’s just something about oppressive summer heat and humidity that my body doesn’t appreciate.
So while Vermont may not offer an abundance of sunshine, especially compared to other parts of the country, I’ll happily take cool temperatures, cloudy skies, and the occasional rainy day over Alabama’s summer heat. For me, it’s one of the many reasons I’m grateful to call Vermont home.

Cool here too, with high humidity as well. Humidity kills me. As soon as the humidity rises I can tell and have to go inside under the air conditioner. Don’t get migraines but my energy is sapped. Can’t work outside under these conditions. May have to move to the desert.
It just sounds like a boring place.
There is currently a heatwave in Europe: Paris 38, Bordeaux 40, and it's going to go up...
Lo primero es lo primero: amo a ese hermoso culo.
En España estamos sufriendo la primera ola de calor. En estas fechas la temperatura normal en el Principado de Asturias (norte de España) es de unos 20 grados centígrados con un porcentaje de humedad algo alto. Mañana martes día 23 se espera una temperatura de 39 grados centígrados, lo que supone para nosotros un calor terrible y seguramente habrá muy poca gente por la calle. En Andalucía (sur de España) esperan temperaturas cercanas a los 45 grados centígrados.
