The past week and a bit has been really nice here. 20- 25 degrees.. shorts weather. Finally after the long, cold winter we had. Now, today it is a high of 8 above and rain. Tomorrow 4 degrees and.. SNOW! Oh my goodness. It sucks!!

Hey, I'll tell you what. I'll trade you my tornados for your cold and snow. Sound fair?

Pretty same here. We had around 20-30 degrees during the last weekend when I had to prep for my entrance tests... And now when I can laze whole the weekend... 6-10 degrees and stormy rain.

Well, at least we won't have snow (if I can only trust for the forecasts).

Seriously!
I was in Calgary the past weekend, and on June 7th, IT SNOWED! And rained, and the whole time all I had were flip flops to wear. Needless to say, I have a wicked cold.
And, now Im back home in Pincher, and I see snow on the mountains all over again. Uuugggghhh

I was born and raised in Alberta, only moving to Ontario a couple of years ago, and the weather difference is huge! I much prefer spring here, but the middle of summer if too much!
I'm actually considering moving back soon, so schitzo weather here I come!

Like Tamma said, Finland is pretty much the same :/ The weekend when school ended was amazing! We were on the beach (which was packed) and we even went swimming in the sea. And I got a sunburn! And then on tuesday it went back to COLD and rainy. :(
