Phew, I decided to go ahead and mow the lawn since it was only going to get hotter over the next few days.

It was "only" 92 when I started and 96 when done. The Vantage Vue I have is a little weather station gizmo in my back yard on the end of a 20 foot pole up in the air. The back yard area where it is located is in the corner of the property, and the stockade fence on one side, and the storage building on the other with the recent rains it is a micro climate there. My Vantage Vue shows 97 degrees, and 51% humidity, and a heat index of 115.

I have to have it there to be away from the trees to be able to measure the rain.

Tomorrow for the Autocross the high for the day is forecast at 102 and sunny. Gonna be a sweaty autocross. The tires will not need much warmup time. They are virgin tires, and this will be their first autocross. Only 4,500 miles on them so the mold release is worn off!

Now I need to go get the car ready for autocross. Check tire pressure, be sure the last of the "stuff" I packed for the trip is out and put up, get the helmet, and cool vest ready. Gonna be a fun day tomorrow!
