Hot enough for you today?

[Scout1071]

I have been such a slug. A/C cranked and holed up in my apartment. I have done absolutely nothing today but get up extra early to give the yard a good soak. It was already in the mid 80's at 8am.

It's too damn hot to go to the pool. I'm bored DU!

[proud2BlibKansan]

1. Go to the pool!

I am getting ready to head out the door now. First stop, bookstore; next stop, pool. :)

[Scout1071]

2. Proud, the water is too hot!

And oh yea...sorry to have missed the meet-up. I meant to email and tell you I was out of town for work.

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. It's my friend's pool

The hose cools it off very well:)

No prob on the meetup. It was hot. We are going inside for the next one - probably at the Flea Market.

3. 71 F in the sun here (coastal norcal)...

...and a pleasant 68 F indoors. I'm gonna go for a walk now....

[Scout1071]

5. Blah, blah, blah.

Way to rub it in.

[Left_Winger]

4. Actually it's not too bad here

All week long the temperature has done its best to reach 100 and came close on Thursday and Friday (99). But right now its only 93, mostly sunny with a slight breeze and medium to low humidity. Quite nice compared to what it could be and has been.

:hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

7. Good to hear

I am heading that way in two weeks.

[Left_Winger]

20. Beware, this break in the weather is not expected to last long.

What's your destination? If you don't mind me asking.

[proud2BlibKansan]

32. Asheville, NC

and the Great Smoky Mountains. We will be there the second week in August.

[Left_Winger]

33. The mountains are great and the temps aren't so bad

I'm down in the lowcountry where SC earns the title: "Hell's half-acre". I hope you have a good time in Asheville.

:hi:

[I Know How To Do it]

8. 103 and 105 heat index. 3:00 p.m. Lincoln, Nebraska.

[Scout1071]

12. I'm just south in KC. It's 100 degrees.

No idea what the heat index is right now.

[I Know How To Do it]

16. Hooray! it's now 104 degrees actual temp.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

18. 97 and 107 heat index in North Alabama....

I can work in the yard for 15 minute increments...

Then it's time for a brew.

[datasuspect]

9. what you can make it hotter or something?

[Scout1071]

15. I'm going to have to remember that line.

For one of "those" conversations with a total stranger.

I love a smartass. Thanks for that one!

[deadparrot]

10. Hell yes. 115 heat index here.

And I get to spend three hours standing outside tonight at work. In pants. :crazy:

[datasuspect]

11. i was in stl thursday night

it was like a fucking oven

[Scout1071]

13. We are getting baked in the midwest right now.

In every way imaginable!

[deadparrot]

14. That it is.

I've lived here my whole life, and you do build up a resistance, but the humidity is lethal. And I mean that literally.

[Scout1071]

17. Tonight: Salmon with grilled potatos and veggies.

Chardonnay.

All of it will be poolside with friends.

We are thinking of heading to the drive-in movies afterwards. Haven't done that in years.

[necso]

19. The humidity

isn't high enough yet... I don't quite feel like I am completely covered in snot.

Actually, it's only like 84 in my house, it got to 94 yesterday. Lots of cloud cover, so maybe not today.

Rain would be nice, but lightning can cause problems. And the heat and humidity (humidity-wise, admittedly rather low by standards other than those of a generally dry climates -- and heat-wise (in my case) of a generally cool climate) have been resulting in power problems. Plus, my dsl has been acting weird again (lost it for some hours -- and the IP rollover has been very frequent). (However, a power and/or weather (lightning, wind, etc) related problem may not have been the cause of the original or the ongoing problems.)

...Looks like the storms might start up -- might have to shutdown.

[mdmc]

21. a cool , sunny 75 degrees in the Hudson Valley, Ny.

peace!

[necso]

22. And what, pray tell,

will it be like in January?

[mdmc]

23. snowy

My favorite season!

[necso]

24. And cold, I imagine? /nt

[mdmc]

25. nope...

well
maybe
w

i

n

d

y

too!

[necso]

26. Well, I suppose

that it depends on what you call cold... colder than, say, 20 is cold as far as I'm concerned.

[mdmc]

28. no, it is freezing here in the winter

but it is much too hot in the summer (except today).

[necso]

30. You're not on the

upper Hudson, then?

I have had friends tell me that upper NY state gets real cold.

[mdmc]

34. nope , lower Hudson valley!

[musette_sf]

27. 92.3 in the yard - Fremont CA

and 75.7 in the house. Not too bad, considering I spent the week in Carrollton TX, and am grateful to be home now.

I left TX for the Bay Area in 1998 and hadn't been back since the end of that year. It's worse than ever now. I was in two conversations where "Blah blah blah THE TERRORISTS blah blah" was said in a righteous manner. Can't say "THE N*GGERS" any more, and even Dallas is getting beyond "THE GAYS" being okay to say in polite company. Just a new name for old habits.

[ailsagirl]

29. BROILING!! I'm on the west coast... heat wave time

[LaurenG]

31. Yes

It must be hot in gd too cause some butt lick just wasted me. No apology either. :grr:

[realms]

35. passing by

I think it's 3:00 4:00 and damned if I don't look at the clock and see that I'm right.

[ikojo]

36. It is way hot here in St Louis

Heat index currently is 105....ick!
