Brooklyn, NY, USA

April was rain rain rain rain rain. So far May's had some rain, but also a lot of sun, with temperatures in the high 70sF this weekend. I went out for a walk in just a t-shirt and felt very comfortable—it was the same temperature outside that it was in our house, with fresh clean breezy air that felt like it had just been laundered and hung out to dry.

Water! Falling from the Sky! - Perth, Western Australia

I'm in Perth, Western Australia, where we are finally getting some rain -- along with a severe weather warning for a significant length of coast, because it comes with a cold front. On the one hand, this is good, because it is about time for a decent amount of rain. Personally though, I'm skipping my lunch time walk and am holed up on the bed, procrastinating before going back to work.

This is in contrast to yesterday, which was bright and sunny, and a balmy 29°C, and both Youngest and I managed to get a little sunburnt going for a ~2 hour bike ride.
