It's hot out

[Zeke]

The cool weather from the Monsoons elsewhere have cooled Socal. Very nice last couple of days.

Steve: Cali? We're not Calexico or Calipso. But that is how we tell people who are not from here. Even if they live here.

Cali

Still hot and humid here. But we're on the home stretch......

[Les Paul]

Record hot summer in Collier county last winter and this summer. WTF I’ve only lived here 18 months and other than a cat 4 hurricane, 300 acre fire in the jungle 1 mile from here and I still don’t miss north Texas����

Yesterday the high was supposed to have been 103º. I think it may have hit 100º at my place. Because of the storm in the Gulf, the temp was only supposed to be 97º today. When I got home it was 86º because we'd received 0.07" of rain. It's up to 94º now, but all of that is a very, very welcome change. Tomorrow is supposed to be 101º and the day after, Thu, 106º.

When you're not used to manual labor, working in 100º+ heat SUCKS!

I worked yesterday for 6 hours inside a RV . It was 98 degrees outside had to be 110 inside . I had a fan and drank a lot of water . Powered through but staying inside today . One day on then one day off has worked for me . Being retired I have that option . Thermometer right now says 102 .

High 90s here all week with an index into the 100s. Cool down starts tomorrow.

Yikes, yeah. Glad you've found your groove. I've been better adjusted in the past, but have spent very little time working outside this summer, so going outside and working is kicking my rear.

We're really looking forward to the cold front that's coming through on Tue!

Texas, the state of extremes.

60 degrees is my number for morning bike rides with shorts and t-shirt. That number is getting later and later every day now. Tomorrow it doesn't get to 60 until 10 am.

Summer is slowly going away here.

[Chocaholic]

Not here. 100+ yesterday and 103 today. Had a short rain shower that turned the Mobile Bay Area into a freakin’ sauna.

^^^^ Not here either.... but not quite as bad.

I like dogs .... won't miss "the dawg daze of summer" ... git!

Wonder why they call 'em that?

The "Dog star" Sirius begins to rise during late summer in the northern hemisphere. It's part of the constellation Canis Major.

I looked it up after my post .... who knew ?

Didn't realize it was between specific dates .... always considered all of August to be Mutt Days

Seven miles from the beach here in So Cal.

Hot and humid today, 94 F. TV says this year's max temp was yesterday at 97F. T-storms are circling the area, we are supposed to see much cooler temps later this week, and maybe a tropical storm remnant Thursday or Friday. We've had little bangers the last 2 nights, lots of branches and dead stuff fallen down in the woods now.
