It's still not very hot here

We're coming into June and still there's a quilt on our bed! What is going on? This time last year things were rather different and we'd already spend many days in the pool.

This year it looks like we've had a raw deal. The summer months can get excruciatingly hot and it helps if the months leading up to July and August "ease" you into those intense heat months.

But I think we're just going to get slapped with a load of heat without much preparation this year.

Mind you, I was wondering today what it would be like to live somewhere like Tenerife. The weather in Tenerife seems to be hot all the time. I'm not really sure I'd like that.

Anyway, must get to bed. My brain has died this week with too much PC time. Looking forward to a relaxing weekend ahead.

I've lived in Tenerife for 16 years and it's not that simple, because there are lots of microclimates (different north and south of the island, different altitudes, etc.) But for most of the year, on most of the island, the climate is warm, but the heat bearable, because of sea breezes.

I know what you mean about not easing into Summer. I live in Soria, considered by some to be the coldest place in Spain, which is rubbish. Ok winter can get cold, but really it aint that bad.

Anyway after having (like most of Spain) 24 days of rain out of 30 in May, with temps not about 16, we are suddenly experiencing 30degree days. Whilst these are expected, there has been none of the usual gradual lead in. What's happening?

We live up near Granada and have just taken our quilt off our bed.

The daytime weather is now hot and dry so, yes, it does look like Sunmmer is here!
