# Unseasonal

Jeez, if I wanted clear blue skies and hot summers I could have stayed in Joburg.

It's been insanely hot here the past 2 weeks. It's also a little more humid here than the Highveld. Not as bad as KZN, but muggy nonetheless.

What surprised me last week, was how people here get into summer so quickly. I left work last Friday, and the lawns outside the office buildings were packed with people out enjoying the sun. I don't think I ever remember South Africans out en masse on the lawns of office parks during summer. I guess because glorious (yaaay) weather is rarer here, people appreciate it more.

Now some extended rainy spells, please.
