I’m currently at work, sitting in the wonderful air-conditioined studio, in the middle of my on-air shift.
As I look out the window I notice that it’s beginning to look a little threatening outside. The forecast is for a hot day, a maximum temperature around 37 celcius, (around 100 fahrenheit) with afternoon thunderstorms and showers.
I don’t know why but I thought that the the storms would roll in after I got home later today. Looking at some stretches of sky I’m now starting to think that I may have misjudged the situation.
I reckon I may just get a little wet when I cycle home this afternoon. I don’t mind riding in the rain, especially if it’s nice and warm, but if I know that it’ll rain on me I usually pack my spray jacket. It’s not so much to keep me dry; it’s more to protect my iPod Mini and my phone, which sit in the back pockets of my cycling jersey.
Oh well, I may just have to prove, once again, that plastic sandwich bags aren’t only useful for holding sandwiches.

Where are you that it is so warm? These days I am really strugling to get out of my warm bed in the mornings and get on my bike to go to work. I really dont mind riding in the rain, especially since one of my friends gave me some water proof bags for my rack to keep my things dry. But the cold…burrrr.
Hello Sean, I’m in Perth, Western Australia.
Where are you? Feel free to add yourself to the guest map in the sidebar.
Hi Rodney,
I´ll jump on my bike, too, this afternoon to get to the dentist – which is no fun…well, the dentist! (I have some 40 km to work and take the car for that). We have around 0-4 celcius and I wish I could be back in Perth!
Have a nice day! Love to read your blog and see what´s happening over the big pond!
