...last night about 4 am and have to get a blanket? It was chillllllly! I keep a light blanket on the bed until the middle of rainy season in June every year, but I'm sure I've never had to get a blanket out in August. This is great. The rain, not so much. (Wednesday and Thursday were perfect weather. I hope we're in for a long fall of weather like that.)

Well, it didn't wake me up, but yes, yesterday and Wed as you pointed out were really good weather-wise. The super hot days are finally over. However, looks like we'll be getting quite a lot of rain....

Gots my blankets ready Smile

I had my air conditioning on. It was still hot Smile

It sucks after fall, though. After all the trees die Korea starts to look really ugly. That's because the only thing saving a lot of places from being ugly is landscaping.

I woke up shivering! A little damp too!!
That was perhaps the ugliest mama i've ever slept with. I don't know what I was thinking... but I blame the beer.

I wore a jacket to school this afternoon because I wished I'd worn one this morning.

I agree about fall. It's often spectacular here. It's looking like we'll get two months of fall this year. You won't hear me complaining.

I'm a little curious what happened to summer. I only used my air con for about 2 weeks. Hurray for that. The less the better.

Maybe if we're lucky we'll get an Indian summer and a couple of weeks of nice hot weather.....I hope.

Indian summers only happen in India?

Down here on the south coast it has been quiet mild. Some nice periodic rain. It was hot hot for only about 2-3 weeks but now it's quite nice.

I'm moving back to Daegu next month. Sure glad I missed their summers. One was enough.

Kyungsang area (-buk & nam) down south has really wonderful weather, 'cept for Daegu in the summer. You do get some hurricane activity in Sept. but winters are mild and not so cold like Seoul.

I heard that summer in Daegu this year was awful. I'm an hour away, and it was nice. Hot but not always muggy. I spent some time up in TDC and the winter there wasn't pleasant. I like it where I am though I do really groove on hurricane and typhoons.

Everyone is allowed one a year. Too bad I used mine up at new years...
