Here today, gone tomorrow

There's an old Maine joke, this flatlander is up on a "foliage" tour in the fall and asks a Native,

"What do you folks do in the summer around here?"

"Well, if it comes on a weekend, we usually try to have a picnic."

83 F today, forecast for 63 F tomorrow, and 50s later in the week.

There are rather similar jokes about the British summer, which is usually considered to last about a week. (First day of summer: June 21st. Midsummer's day: June 24th.)
