It's going to be one of the five. I just don't know which of the five it'll be.
Seeing as how yesterday was the second day of summer I decided to use my two minutes of TV time to wonder what kind of summer we'll actually have. If you live up here you know that our “summer”'s been all over the map so far, and there's no way to tell what the next two or three months will hold.
So to address the issue I had my “crack team of researchers” (i.e. my demented mind) come up with five possibilities for the season. They're all based in fact; in fact, we've had something resembling them all in the past decade or so. So despite whatever absurd flourishes I may have given them, any (or all) of them could happen in one form or another over the next few months.
I just have no idea which of the five it'll actually end up being.
As I mention in the piece, I'm thinking (at least based on the past few weeks) that a certain one of the five may come out on top. I mean, I'm hoping not, but I'm also realistic enough to know what summer weather is like around here. Hopefully, we'll get a pattern shift in the next few weeks and warm up a little.
Who knows—maybe we can even be like Europe and bake under 90 degree temperatures for weeks on end. I wouldn't mind; I'm guessing, however, that many of you would.
So just what were the five possibilities? See for yourself, and see if you agree with my assessment of the situation--
