I have been called the 'weather girl' (I made an euphemistical translation from the romanian meteorologul de serviciu) by some years ago by my friends. I don't know why, maybe because of my desperately annoying daily questions (how's the weather? is it cold? what should I wear?), or maybe because of my lousy pickup lines that often had some meteorological phenomenon involved (I won't give examples here) etc
And here I am now, dedicating an entire post to the weather.
When we came here everybody said well, get prepared for a very depressing weather, hope you'll survive. I wouldn't call it depressing though, but crazy.
At least this week, every day was full of suprises. Morning, clear sunshine. Then heavy grey clouds with cold rain. Sunshine again, as if nothing happened. Then suddenly, hail! Drops of ice and snow heavily falling on our car. Then sun again. And so on. All these seasoned with a wind that could move the car.
The weather here is schizophrenic, wild, unpredictable. Clouds are moving very fast. When it's sunny, it's really beautiful, with that nordic crisp shiny light, which I admired so much in the nordic advertising commercials (I thought it was just a good DOP). And when it rains it really rains.
And as I'm a meteo-sensitive person, I think this weather suits me very well. I have found my soul weather :)
