Welcome to Jersey, enjoy the humidity...

Off the cuff humor...Why is it that with regards the weather, we are never satisfied...?


Poem Artwork

I sit here and sweat,
While in the air-conditioning no less,
I even took a cold shower,
Thought I’d cool off if I was wet…

The rain & thunderstorms blew through,
The weather no cooler than prior,
The humidity is quite high, welcome to Jersey,
Feels outside like we are living in a forest fire…

No rain in the forecast for the forecastable & foreseeable future,
Some cooler temperatures would be to Jersey a temporary suture,
But that is not to be as per the powers that be,
Why is it that the weather people are right when the weather is wrong.

When people get older, they spend a lot more time thinking about the weather.

Come on down here to Houston where the summer hot and humid lasts at least six months. I love it. I just came in from getting some sun, but the damn Sahara desert dust is acting like a sunscreen, cutting my rays in half.
