You get my vote for jet lag.Or whatever made you have a better time than me...Jealous...(you better believe it).

Sub-zero temperatures! You really should move, for your own safety. People die at temps.

Well, it's not as though I live there. Permanently.

Although, with that forecast, I'm packing a few pairs of clean undies for my "day" trip, because I know Nunavut weather well enough to not trust it. Wouldn't that be just luverly - spending my May Long up in NU. On the plus side, I'd get paid for the weekend, and the fishing there is supposed to be incredible.

It is...I worked with a fisheries biologist who helped build the stairs for the char to return to their breeding waters. He loved it up there, complained about Wyoming never getting cold enough.

This thread is making me hot.

Our forecast is 90+ today, 100 tomorrow, 102 Friday. Yes, I DO live in the desert, and I am FROM California and darn proud of it! Be nice to the CA Girl! :D hehehe.

Yeah, for some of us, it's like a drug and you need to keep going back to get your 'fix' of the North. I'm counting down the hours until I return (26.5!!).

Out of curiosity, was this biologist in Arviat building stairs or was he working with one of the major dam projects in the Hudson Bay area?

The dam projects weren't for char, were they? I know he spent time in Nunavat, I know he worked on stair projects to restore Arctic char populations to help with the native food populations. Sorry--it was a few years back that he gave a presentation on it, so my memory is a little fuzzy.

No, the dam projects were for power.

Either way, char are yummy.

And they have a really cool life cycle!

Damn those damned dam projects.

Very, very frightening me.

All of which is to say the just now there was a massive flash of lightning and a crack of thunder.

I love storms.

Well.... now we know what the fish said when he hit a wall!

heh heh

'Knock it off, Hudson!'

Fan's self...

So now that my NU trip is nice and cancelled (thank-you, crappy weather in NU!!), I'm sitting at home in my underwear sipping a cold beer because it's freaking hot here.

It's 23C and sunny, and after my 5.5k walk home from work, I'm a hot and very, very sweaty girl.

I'm so glad I'll be north when the real hot weather starts!!

It's 86F here right now.

Bornbad...I blame you.

*looks for fan to dust off and plug in*

So it was 105° yesterday and 110° today. 109° tomorrow, but then it's going to cool cool off to the high 90's.
