First 100 Degree Weekend
« on: April 22, 2012, 02:16:32 PM »
Well, the 'hot season' is making it's debut this weekend !!!

Got to 100 F. yesterday, forecast is 105 F. today .

Currently 95 F. at 12:15, 7% humidity, so it is a 'dry heat' !!!!!

Lou,

The WorldSuperBike race at Assen, Netherlands, was a motorboat race with some of your weather system overhead. So many beautiful bikes and riders thrown down the track when the front tire would tuck under and the pilot would fly over the bars... that's with rain tires.

Wear your swimmies, amigo.
