Well, the weather forecast said fog + rain. But actually it's sunny and around 20 degree celsius here in Autostadt/Wolfsburg/Germany ;) Unfortunately i have to work right now. But even working is less boring if the weather is good.

I’m from Sweden but living in Malaysia at the moment and done so for almost two and a half years, before that I lived in Singapore one and a half.
Here it’s warm and humid all time. Of course a lot of rain and thunder as well in a good mix… but to humid for me though! Can’t even play golf properly!!!! :-(

In Sweden it has been the worst summer since 1928, rain, rain, rain…. I visited Sweden in end August and beginning of September… guess what weather I had!!!!





If I hade six hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend the first four sharpening the axe.

I confirm Canadian weather... The places for extreme ! Here in Montréal
we have very nice summer and very bad winter. The diference between
warmest (july) and the coldest (january) can reach 80°C !!!

In Paris the weather during winter the sky is never clear, grey day,
lots of rain, now snow, borring. Summer gets really hot.

The coldest I've seen was Rimouski Québec during my studying years -42°C
(-65°C with wind factor) and the warmest was on the red sea +45°C and very humid.

Yea -40 is -40 and humid or dry all you want to do is get back inside.
I will always remember my wife's face when she came here for the first time
during winter. She had left Paris at +2 and It was -30 when she got out of Montréal's airport... I have found a very good Canadian weather statistics page. You can search
by city or by statistic. I thought you might enjoy it.

And just to add to the random useless Canadian weather facts:

Ottawa is the coldest capital city in the world: Colder than Moscow, Reykjavik, Oslo, Helsinki and any other place you might consider cold.

So there. =-)

Feel free to take a look inside my brain

I have been to all these cities during summer only but It's true that
"useless" statistics says that Ottawa is coldest during winter.
