katkin5. Anything else10:17
katkinBurgundavia: are you there?10:18
MadpilotBurgundavia suggested that date, I see, but there didnt' seem to be any confirmation10:20
Madpilot0900UTC = 0200 local - 45min from now10:20
katkinaha10:22
katkinoh well, looks like we might need to re-schedule10:22
katkinMadpilot: when would you suggest to be a good time in the day to go for?10:22
Madpilotkatkin, no idea. Fire off a note to the mailing list again, I guess.10:24
Madpilotthe fun of a worldwide group - it's going to be "Oh God hundred" for someone...10:24
katkinMadpilot: would it be best for me to make a few suggestions for people to pick from?10:24
katkinMadpilot: I guess so!10:25
Madpilotat one point on the Doc Team's wiki pages, we had a grid people could fill in - indicating what times were least-worst for them, so we could pick the most likely compromise time. Making a couple of suggestions is a good idea.10:26
katkinI see10:29
katkinthanks for the advice10:29
katkinMadpilot: so where are you based?10:29
Madpilotwestern Canada - same city as Burgundavia (even better, he's my younger brother...)10:29
katkinaha10:30
katkinso it must be early in the morning in Canada right now?10:30
Madpilot013010:31
MadpilotI'm up late waiting for it to cool off, because I can sleep in later today10:31
katkini see10:39
katkinyou're lucky that it is hot where you are10:39
katkinwe have had awful weather so far this summer10:39
katkinlots and lots and lots and lots of rain10:39
katkinand not a lot of sunshine or warmth10:39
Madpilotit was 36C here today10:40
MadpilotI've had the day off, spent it drinking litres of water, getting a bit of a sunburn on the back deck, and mucking around10:40
katkinyou are lucky10:40
katkintoday London is grey10:40
katkinagain10:40
MadpilotLondon is generally grey, in my experience. :)10:41
Madpilotalthough it was hot last time I was there - end of June and 30+ every day. (June 2000, not that recent)10:42
katkinyep, that's true to an extent10:42
katkinalthough we had an amazing summer last yr10:42
Madpilot36C is hot for here - low 30s is more common for summer temps10:42
katkinit was so hot the grid went down because so many people were using air con and fans10:42
katkinApril was really hot for us - bizarrely10:43
katkinit has just been raining relentlessly lately10:43
Madpilotfun. we had a shite June - way too much rain, and chilly. Then this heatwave broke on us right at the beginning of July.10:43
katkinRecord-breaking June rainfall figures10:44
katkinProvisional statistics from the Met Office have today shown that June has been the wettest since records began in 1914.  10:44

Madpilotfun10:46
katkinkind of, not for all the poor people in the north of england who's homes have been flooded tho10:47
katkinit's going to cost 2bn - http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article2036908.ece10:48
MadpilotI saw the flooding on the Beeb's website - couple of cities trashed10:48
Madpilotcrazy - I just checked the weather map for N. America, and even the "Lows" are higher pressure than usual for the western half of the continent...10:49
MadpilotI think that means our nice weather is going to last a bit longer :)10:49
katkinthats good news then10:50
katkinwe were told that we were only going to have one nice day for the whole of July10:50
katkinSummer officially arrives and leaves on 15th july10:51
katkinthat's a lot of pressure for a Sunday!10:51
Madpilotya, there's a big low out south of Iceland, right on the edge of the wx map I'm looking at10:51
Madpilot<-- weather geek (my excuse is the flying, pilots are expected to know this mass of weather bumpf...)10:52
katkinyou're a pilot?10:56
Madpilotya10:56
Madpilotthe IRC nick is not entirely random :)10:57
Madpilotwhich means I can look at something like http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/data/analysis/jac06_50.gif and actually make some sense of it10:58
