A look at Friday’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada.

It’s 15.4 C at the Edmonton Blatchford weather station, with 10 km/h winds from the east, northeast.

My wife would describe today’s forecasted high of 25 C as the Goldilocks forecast: not too hot but not too cool, either. Juuuust right!

And she’s right, I was still able to get a decent tan while mowing the lawn yesterday and yet the house doesn’t feel like a burning hellscape like it typically does during a 30 C day.

Sure, I could buy an air conditioner but don’t tell me how to live my life. Sure, they’re really not that expensive and likely boosts quality of life considerably but we’re doing just fine melting on the couch while the gigantic fan blows warm air in our faces. With highs of 28 C Saturday and Sunday I look forward to some serious melting. Bring it on.
