I'm ready for chilled rainy days. jiggly

Bring it on. I'm over summer. I'm tired of the cold air trapping hot smoggy air in the valley. I want fewer people on the roads and in stores. I want the natural cleaning from rain to make the air smell fresh. Let's go, enough of this hot weather already. I'm ready for chilled rainy days.

I don't understand why I sleep all day And start to complain that there's no rain.

I can breathe so much better when the misty rain clears the air

Can’t change the weather only your location.

This is the most ironic thing considering that climate change is human caused and that it's impacting the entire location we have access to.

For sure sucks. Of course weather is different than climate.

I feel you! That being said, enjoy this weather while it lasts! Cool nights and mornings, fog burning off into warm sun and the bluest of skies. I was at the coast today and it was warm, sunny, and not a hint of wind.

All good until the leaves start to rot

u/ClementineClover Oct 07 '24

Agreeee. I love the leaves, cooler air, and all the colors but that mold allergy when the leaves rot take over my whole life. Sadly allergic to Eugene 9 months out of the year. It's the allergy fatigue for me that makes me stir-crazy. Blegh! lol
