Default Back to summer?

I am not far away.

We have too much rain, but “too much rain” appears to be the most
ordinary weather, here in Normandy. My garden succeeded better than in
2013, because there *was* a summer, this year. Nowadays we enjoy 10 to
20 minutes of warm sun between the next 10 to 20 minutes of rain
(drizzle or thunderstorm). This morning it was not chilly but downright
cold ! The wind, too, has become completely unpredictable. While other
french regions are more continuously blessed or doomed, we have all of
it, and all at the same time.

Today has started with a bright blue, cloudless sky and barely a
whisper of wind in the trees. But the temperature's a bit sharp! The
Aga was re-lit yesterday!
