    I know you people in Texas and other southern places are hot, but today is the hottest for us. It' 87 at 1 pm and going to 92 or higher by 5 pm. I opened the front door a while ago and it was like opening the door on a blast furnace.

    Sorry your temps are warming up Capt. Stay somewhere cool.
    I won't even try to get into the one-up-manship to try to make you feel better cause it is all in what you are used to ;)

    They say that we had 2 90 deg. days in June but I don't think it got that hot here at the house. It has been a norm of low 80's here this summer. and the humidity has been generally lower than normal. Today the humidity is around 90 %.

    Hi Carrumba baby! You need to come visit the Oregon Coast like Kildale did! That'll cool you off :D
    Oh, and by the way...we don't have humidity ;)

    Yeah, and that's why it's like a desert there with no rain! :)

    The heat is turning up here too Capt! Right now it is 32°C with a humidex of 41°C. I love the heat when I don't have to go anywhere. My daughter and I were just in the pool for the last hour :)

    I would do the 'Happy Dance' if we were any where close to 80 degrees. :D :D We are having temps in the mid to high 90's. You never know if the weather people know what they are talking about...but they said we would have the same weather pattern till the end of September (for east Texas)! :-x

    I think that the weather is getting some things mixed up, it's 80 here, and it's 2:00PM. We could see some 90s in the next week or so. But you never know, the weather people change their tune every few days.
