myrottietyHow hot is it where you are?
93 degrees actual. With a heat index as Hot As F!!
Went up to the pool and swam laps mixing in Squats & pushups. Was actually a workout in the heat. Getting sun. While jumping back into the pool after 30-60 seconds of work.
10/10 I'd recommend on a hot day.

snorisNasty here in DFW. I know it'll eventually get down to "bearable," but it needs to come pretty soon before we all melt.

sigfreund39° when I got up this morning; high of 74° yesterday per the weather service; 73° forecast today.
The only (admittedly mixed) downside to this absolute best summertime climate on the planet is the number of visitors. Evidently because of the temperatures (can’t be the lack of O2), runners and cyclists love to come here for their races. Last Saturday was a 10K run, next weekend is the annual 100 mile run, and many of them believe that this part of the world should revolve around them while they’re here.
But mixed because some do spend a bit of money here.

signewtour string of 100+ days plus low rainfall has left a large chunk of PNW regional forests severely stressed.
Yes there are a number of wildfires and air shed compromises.

jhe888I am in Houston. It is in the mid-80s when the sun comes up, and over 100 by 1:00 pm, and stays that way until 6:30 or later and has been for many weeks now.
We've had worse heat waves in my life, but this one is getting bad.

Last bad one was 2011, that I recall, and that was in June/July. we had just bought our first house & had a huge field behind us. We were glad for the July 4 fireworks ban, as we were worried about it being a tinderbox.
