The weather used to be less wet in the spring where we live, the sun shown more and it was warmer. I remember a time when in April - September it was SUMMER. The typical day would consist of a clear sky full of sun all morning with a few clouds in the afternoons accompanied by the occasional temporary thunderstorm. Everything was washed clean and then the clouds moved on, leaving the sun to dry things for the rest of the day. You knew when you took a hike or some other outdoor activity, the afternoons might bring a refreshing bit of thunder and a brief burst of sweet rain.
Now, there is wind. It's cool. It's more wet than it used to be. It's already almost June and we have had only a handful of days where the temperature has been over 70F. The wind, in particular, has been the most unwelcomed feature of our changed weather. Not only is it extremely annoying but it makes it much colder. That wind chill factor thing.
Summer has changed. Do I sound like I am pleased about that?
