The weather in Chiradzulu is southern-hemisphere wet/dry season, which apparently means there's an unknown temperature switch that does not coincide with the rains. I arrived in July, at the tail end of the rainy season to near-freezing temperatures. Heaters had just been installed in every room in our house, and expats were gleefully putting them to good use. The weather dried up rapidly, then in the last few weeks has turned warmer. It's gone from sweatshirt-weather to hot.
Not cool.
I moved from Philly to San Francisco to avoid the dripping hot, debilitating summers and to bask in the cool, energizing chill.
In the past few days, it's gotten hot. So hot you don't want to climb the hill. So hot you sweat in your sneakers. So hot that jeans are unbearable.
But this is Africa, so it's kind of what I expected. It was nice to have San Franciscan cool weather while it lasted.
Time to find a fan.
