Autumn arrived without asking.

Until yesterday there was a big heat wave where I live. I used flipflops and shorts to garden as I got my helper to clean up a big piece of weeds that neither Leticia nor I could clean.
So far, so good. My helper did everything fine except when I went in to prepare lunch. Then he decided that the rosemary was something that I did not like and he uprooted it. I hope that nothing will happen to it as I planted it again as soon as I saw it.
Today the heat left us. Good for my poor rosemary but bad for me. I don´t like cold days although I´m sure that some of you will find that the weather now is perfect.
The sky is gray and I had to get some warm clothing. My feet were icecold while I was surfing so I got changed my flipflops for socks.
I often read about the global heating and worry about the melting of our glaciers. But still, the weather does what it wants. One day it´s scorching (and we start thinking about global warming) and the next day it is cold and rainy.
Maybe it was always like this and there was noone to measure what was happening.
What do you think about it? Are we experiencing global warming? Has the weather changed where you live?

I know they don{t. And it is better if they change, I suppose. At least for the plants. As for me, I´d like to hybernate during Winter.

@marguicha I can remember swimming in a local reservoir while it was snowing when I was young and stupid, but now that I am old and stupid that is out of question.

This is the kind of weather when we must change clothes several times in a day. And, on top of it, get a cold.

@marguicha Exactly, I have to wear warm clothes in the morning and then change at noon. Today is sunny but colder than yesterday.

I wonder if many years ago it was as unpredictable as now, only we did not have a name for it.

It's been very windy here this morning, but it's been really nice.
