I too grew up with the silliness that the seasons start on the solstices and 
equinoxes.

Most older European cultures recognize those days as the middle of the seasons. Last night was Mid Summer's Eve and today is Mid Summer's Day, as far as I am concerned. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midsummer>

So, of course, it started with a low overcast here in the land of the Summer Fog Cycle, after a couple of nice, warm days. Burning off now.

Big deal.  It's going to be 110F on Friday and we've already seen 116F earlier 
this year.

I'll stay here, thanks.
