Freezing

The temperatures, that is.  And in early June.

And I mean literally, not figuratively.

"It's going to snow tonight", a friend told me who watches the weather closely.  He meant on the mountain, but that's close enough, particularly if you live at an elevation just sufficiently higher than the town to get snow when it rains in town.

This spring the weather was cold, like winter. That's not that unusual here, but it was unrelenting and it kept on keeping on.  Now the weather is like mid spring, which means cold. 

I know that its only a matter of time until I get on the elevator and some office dweller will look over and cheerfully say "It sure has been hot!", bused on the calendar rather than the actual weather.  But it hasn't been.  And it isn't.
