Small Talk 101 - The Weather

The weather here has taken a turn for the worse. It’s been in the single digits (to you Americans, “the 40s”) for three or four days now, and the 5 day forecast shows it staying at a daily low of 6 (42) every day until Monday, when the low will be 9 (48). Ok, so I know what you’re thinking (I don’t actually, but wouldn’t that we pretty funky?) anyways, as I was saying… just because there are lows of 6 (42) doesn’t mean its not hot during the day…. It’s not! The highs range from 17 (62) to 21 (69) and it has been raining pretty much every damn day.



Isn’t the beginning of August supposed to be the HOTTEST time of the year? Lets have us look back at August 3rd, for a few years back and see what Fort St. John weather is usually like.



2005 – High 22 (73) Low 8 (48)

2004 – High 22 (73) Low 14 (57)

2003 – High 20 (68) Low 9 (49)

2001 – High 18 (64) Low 11 (51)

2000 – High 23 (74) Low 13 (55)



Ok, so maybe it isn’t just this summer. This place is just ass cold! What happened to Global Warming? Did it miss my town? On the flip side of that, lets have a look at the weather where I am moving next month….

Sorry for this post about the weather, it was either this or do a post about my sex dream staring Kenny Chesney! That's what I get for going to sleep with the iPod on!
