Hey, you guys—summer is half over.
Let's observe a moment of silence, shall we?
I'm actually kind of serious about this. If you consider summer to be the months of June, July, & August (what weather professionals call “Meteorological Summer”) then noon yesterday, July 15th, marked the beginning of the second half of the season. 50% of the days of summer are behind us, and 50% still await us.
As of yesterday, summer was half over. So with that in mind, is it any surprise that temperatures might not even make it out of the 50s in Marquette today?

It barely seems like summer's begun, at least to me, but it seems like that every year, so I may not be the best person to judge. But the past few years, with everything that's gone on, seem to have exacerbated the situation. Days and weeks blend into each other; you go to bed in early May and then you wake up the next day to find out that it's mid-July.
And you know what that means, right? It means it's gonna snow next week.
Okay; that MAY be a joke. But like I said, the way days and weeks are blending into each other means it's not that long until we wake up one morning to find out that summer isn't merely half over but has somehow made the jump into November. I shudder at the mere thought, but I know it's coming.
So get out and enjoy the second half of summer while it's still here. After all, you don't want to leave anything undone on your summer to-do list, lest you wake up tomorrow and realize it is, indeed, November.
Because you know that IS going to happen.
