I don't think I've ever checked the online weather radar as often in my life as I have while living here. Mostly because I need to bicycle myself around often on the weekdays. I always carry with me, along with other needed things for a bicyclist like a tire repair kit, an umbrella, and also have a rain suit for days when I must go out on my bike & know it will rain, if it isn't already. I even have a bicycle seat cover for those days when it "may" rain so I won't get a wet butt. I love this quote in your entry "maybe California, but they probably have a weather control ray." Hilarious ;-) Have a great weekend! So true. I don’t think I’ve ever checked the online weather radar as often in my life as I have while living here.

I hope it holds out for the weekend. It was wet in London and I'm hoping for a little dry weather somewhere. Wow you are a quick commenter.

Yesterday, we had a nice mix of sunshine and rain for about a minute and then both seemed to disappear. We have actual sunshine right this very moment. I'm hoping it will stick around for a while.
