talking about the weather

Woke up this morning to the sound of rain. Great sound to wake up to. But a bit strange for the middle of summer. It is pouring. Checked the Yahoo weather site, and it says:


Today: Periods of rain. High near 60F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall near a half an inch.
Tonight: Light rain early...then remaining cloudy with showers overnight. Low 54F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.
Tomorrow: Rain. High 61F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Rainfall around a quarter of an inch.
Tomorrow night: Cloudy with periods of rain. Low 53F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Rainfall around a half an inch.
Friday: Cloudy, periods of rain. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the mid 50s.
Saturday: Considerable cloudiness. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the upper 50s.


Then I checked my former home southern California and it says:


Today: Mostly sunny. High 72F. Winds NNE at 10 to 20 mph.
Tomorrow: Mainly sunny. High 72F. Winds NE at 10 to 20 mph. Stronger winds in and below canyons and passes.
Thursday: Mainly sunny. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the mid 40s.
Friday: Sunny. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the low 40s.
Saturday: Mainly sunny. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the low 40s.


And my question is, who is in the middle of summer?

I have heard it said its nice to have four seasons, but I am having a hard time getting used to four seasons in one week. But if getting used to the weather is all the suffering I have to do, well I can't complain too much. But the Superbowl on a Monday, now that starts to get my blood boiling.
