Yep, not as bad but we're up for 106 today and it's pushing 104 according to my thermometer.  It's gonna be a warm ride home...

OMG!  And it's only the middle of June.  It's a nice 82 F here today.   ;)  

But we've had weird weather.  Temps are lower than normal.  We keep getting these low pressures coming down from the Pacific Northwest that bring cool weather.  Darn.   ;D

Although I wouldn't mind swimming in that 92 degree pool.  Ahhhhhh!  Nice to jump in and out of in that kind of weather.

'Only' got to 113 F. today, so we got a break !!!

With this low humidity (I had a reading of 0% humidity at around 1700 today), when you get out of the pool, it feels like below freezing for about 20 minutes .

I feel for you Bob. As I sit here with the heater on and the rain a pounding on the roof, I know where I'd rather be.

HINT: it ain't where you are - I hate high temps with a passion.

Last night was a two dog night...pity I only have the one.  ;D

115° here just down the desert from Bob. Naturally a perfect day to replace the rollers on the sliding patio door. That means opening up the house to the outside heat for a couple hours. The reward is that now I can slide the door open, on the way to the pool, with just one hand. Leaving the other free to transport an adult beverage or two.
