weekend weather

So yeah, it’s getting HOT. Not as hot as it somtimes gets here during the summer, but we’re just barely into July. And normally you can add a few degrees to the “official high temperature”, especially around 5 PM in the centre of Sevilla. The good news is that it’s happening at the weekend when we have the cheaper electricity rates!  The bad news is my tap water is already smelling strongly of chlorine, which also doesn’t usually happen until some time in August. Guess we didn’t get enough rain this spring. Welcome to Summer 2021.

heat’s back!

heats back

The heat is back, creeping back up to 40º, and so we are now always looking for shady streets when out and about. In fact, there’s a new app out there called Shadowmap that tells you when and where streets in Sevilla (or anywhere else in the world) are more likely to be shady. I usually tend to just look up the street, but I suppose it could be handy if you don’t know a place and you are planning a walking route. Honestly, there’s an app for everything these days.

hola bárbara!

Storm Bárbara is here! Apparently we will be hit with high winds and heavy rainfall over the next few days. There is already reported flooding in Huelva. Good thing I have the winter duvet freshly cleaned so I can cosy up with the cats and stay dry inside. Also good thing I decided to self-isolate this week.
