how hot is hot?
we've had it in the low 40's here, which is about 102-104 degrees f.
that's the hottest we've had it. usually around mid 30's (96 or so)
brokeplex:
it gets that hot where you live?
actually, I should ask, where do you live? I didn't realize that it got that hot anywhere in Canada except maybe as a once of twice occurence in the summer.
The real problem for me with the summers here, is the fact that they just last so long. It will get up into the 90's and stay there starting in May and go up further into the 100's by July and stay that way until after Labor day. the nights are not especially cool either in the summer here, it will dip only down into the 80's thru most of the summer. I get out of town after July 4th, and head up into the mountains in Montana, I stay there until mid Sept or thereabouts.

yeah we canadians have hot weather too. i'm going to post a pic of where i live on my new blog soon. since we're weather freinds, check it out!
i live on vancouver island, west side, town called PORT ALBERNI.....not sure if it's even on a map! lol
population is about 30,000 or so...which is hard to believe when you're here. i thought it was about 100. not sure where everyone is...that's for sure.
anyways, the town is in a valley, so it just roasts here in the summer. it's usually about 10 degrees hotter than vancouver.

I was up your way a few years back, ended up in Victoria for a day. Really nice place to visit and the weather reminded me of San Francisco. cool and humid.
I'm heading up to Seattle for an event at the Sci Fi museum in Aug while I am in Montana. I think DL will be up as well for a few weeks. And I tried to convince him to take one of those glacier cruises that go out of Vancouver and head up to Juneau, he wasn't much interested. I'll work on him some more.

well, b.c. west coast is definately beautifull. victoria is nice too. we go there often, when we need to 'have a night out on the town'! which isn't often 'cause hubby is a little cheap! lol
that's neat you've been here.
in the states, i've been to bellingham washington, hellena montanna, seattle, oregan, california, minnisota, and, i think that's it.
i haven't travelled many places in canada. ...alberta, and saskatchewan
