Welcome to Michigan Hockeycast 7.23, where we're a lot more hopeful than we were a few months ago.

Yeah. Happy summer to you, Alex. Are you having a good summer? Uh, yeah. Is it hot enough for you?

At points, but May was really cold, and... So you were waiting for it to warm up? Yeah, I mean,

it was one of like the coldest and drearyest Mays that I could ever remember, and then June was kind of up and down a bit,

but then there's been those kind of heat waves, too. It's been kind of a weird weather, summer to date. Are you more of a guy that wants it to be warm, or are you like, all right, it needs to cool off out there? So my main thing is I hate spring. You hate spring? I hate the like the kind of the roller coaster.

These stupid flowers.

Up and downs of spring, right?

That like, I like it when it's cold.

I like it when the fall is setting in and it's getting that 50, 60 degrees, but it's the

crisp air, right?

So you're more of a cooler weather guy.

Or I like like real summer weather, like, you know, high 70s, 80s with sun. What I don't like is the in-between when it's, like, you know, 62 degrees in gray, right? Like the... Like today. Exactly. Like, and so much of spring is that like right like we always get to march and

april and there's like two weekends where it's like wow it's 72 and sunny this is amazing and

then and then every other week is just 63 degrees drizzling gray and like that i just hate like

yeah any weather that could be described as england Ireland is bad weather for, or Vancouver or Seattle.

Like, over, I just, I don't like clouds.

I don't like overcast.

I don't like clouds.

I like it to be clear and sunny or cold.

One of the two, but, you know, pick something.

What about Cirrus clouds?

I don't have, I'm not an expert on Clouds, but I just don't, I don't like when they, like, just hang over the day, and it's just like, ah.
