The radio tells me that it is forecast to reach nearly 80°F today. Our mornings start out foggy but, now I think back, I recall seeing people wearing shorts and t-shirts on some days late last October. Back in Perthshire, I would have expected a yard mowing a month ago to perhaps be the last of the year. At this house, I fear that I may have another mowing ahead of me yet.

The house is staying comfortably in the 70's. Stopping into the bank last weekend, I was surprised to notice that they have the air conditioning set to cool to 70°F; at home, I am happy with mine set at 80°F. Perhaps they have money to burn.

I have never understood cooling things to really low temperatures. They do that at my office, and I have to have a space heater to survive.

If you lived in Florida, you'd pretty much be mowing all year long. (grin)

It's been pointed out that part of office temperatures is men making the decision, men tending to like it cooler than women physiologically, and men wearing suits, thus nearly fully covered with two upper layers, vs. women tending to wear lighter and/or less covering clothes.

Me, I like 70 F even in a T-shirt and shorts.
