As a Canuck, I laugh at the winters here.
Huge gales of laugher where my face turns red and I pass out from lack of oxygen.
On the other hand, summers here make me very cranky. |

For real? Maybe you're right, but not in my personal experience. I have spent 4 summers here, and this one was the worst |
Definitely NOT near the wettest in terms of the June/July Monsoons.
But in terms of August rains from mainland China pre-typhoon season, yeah, definitely! The flooding in North Korea last week, and rains in South Korea this week, are due to low systems from the asian mainland that is very uncharacteristic for this time of year. |
Seems about right. I was considering the uncomfortability factor which has prevailed until recently (again, from my perspective). |
I'm from Northern Australia, so it's all relative, I guess. |

| Funny how we're typing on our computers about how beautiful the weather is outside. A little ironic. |

Not really. I posted that at 3.30am in the morning. I was up finishing a research proposal. |

I am yearning for some sunny balmy days! Yea, it cooled down significantly today, I am surprised. Damned rain and darkness blows though. It's been one rainy bummer of a summer.
I wonder if a typhoon is on it's way as that is typical at this time of the year I understand. I want to see that as that means a free day off. |

| I'm not complaining...I really like the cooler temps...but I'm really suprised at the sudden drop. This doesn't usuallyhappen until October! I even had to take out a quilt and close the windows! I've never done THAT on Sept. 1st before!! |

I like the summer I have to say, the sweatiness and all. I don't think anything can beat the feel of the sun on face..when its really hot. Humidity sucks though. Fall is nice too so I suppose its not so bad.
I hate the winter here though. It's too damn cold. |

People, people, people,...
Yes, September is usually very nice in Korea, but it's still way too early for this to be occurring..These dramatic temperature variations are an indication of....Global Warming. |
