The heat wave has ended today in southern Finland
This is not a fact of universal significance but it is a fact nonetheless. Yesterday's peak temperature in Lahti was 25 C. Today it was 17 C.
Facts end here.
Tomorrow will be horrible according to the forecast: the highest temperature of tomorrow will be 9 C. That's a f***ing single digit figure. The daily maximum will get back to 20-25 C at the end of the week. The school year is finally over after the students and the teachers sitting in hot classrooms for a whole month and we're being tortured with such ridiculous temperatures.
Oh well, that's not totally bad for gardening because it involves heavy lifting. My wife and I may create a new flower bed this week. I suppose it's nicer to move all that soil when your brain is not baking in the heat.
My wife's nephews came to visit us from St. Petersburg. They're in their mid twenties. The older one recently graduated from university. He is a physicist in the beginning of his academic career and studies neutron physics. The younger one is close to graduating as a sound engineer. I told him about DSound as a way to earn money by getting upvoted if he publishes his samples. That's what he and some of his friends do and they have managed to sell them on the Internet via some websites. He sounded interested and I promised to help him in making a Steem account.
We're planning to go to Hämeenlinna tomorrow to visit the medieval castle and the military museum. It will be a good day to spend mostly indoors.
