It's funny, the Heeler only uses her front legs to swim, the Border Collie uses all four! Hahaha

101 today, new record!

 

[Nesikep]

we got to about 105 today, supposed to get hotter over the next couple days

Yes, 106 forecast for Monday. I have curb and gutter to pour in downtown Tacoma at 7 am.

Figured I'd get a head of the game, I wrote my obituary this morning!

It was 91 by noon and 99 now at 3:20. Some guys from church were having a fishing get together with a fish fry at 2:00 today down on the Snake River by Huntington. Too hot to sit in a boat fishing catfish. And too hot for a picnic. Decide to stay home and watch the hay dry. Sort of like watching paint dry except it smells better.
Both dogs are laying on the concrete porch in the shade. They look like they are dead. Absolutely no movement. There is a full irrigation ditch behind the house. They could go jump in but they don't.

If it gets to 100F this week (getting close now) it will be more than 150 degrees F warmer than our coldest day this winter... if my math is correct.

Had a cooler day today. High about 86F but humidity hit 100% several times….showers in the forecast everyday for the next 10 days. Wonder how accurate that's going to be…

My truck registered 39C (102F) in places today. I think I feel like you Texans did a few months ago when you had that cool spell…. rather unequipped to deal with it and not real happy about it. Looking forward to the end of this.

Yes. Seems like A/C is standard equipment on all vehicles, tractors, and equipment. We aren't very tough up here.

We moved from KS to WI to AZ, back to WI, back to AZ, down to TX and finally back to KS. I've learned to deal with extreme temps. Not that I like it . . . .
