Although i love the hot summer weather, this is turning out to be one of the hottest! A week of 90's and above is usually great but not when you want to work on projects and don't have air conditioning!!!! The only thing to keep cool is stay in the pool. But even the pool got too warm 88 degrees so we had to add more cold water. How hot is it where you are?

90s all week here but heat index in the 100s.
I never had a/c in a house till I was in my 40s. Now I don't know what I'd do without it.

In the 90's the last couple of days, as it cooled off with some rain, but in the 100's before that. But pretty normal for the south. Lots of humidity always. Good thing hot weather is my favorite. Can't stand to be cold.

Hot here in Nebraska, high nineties to 103 in most places. Dew points in the 70s which is what gets me. No pool, just my AC. We keep it at 80 with the ceiling fans running.

Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, we feel for you. At least we get some rain here and there. Try to stay cool.:)

90's-100's here- no air-no pool--just fans to move the hot air around---it was 78 at 6am this morning as i was on my way to work! tomorrow is supposed to be our hot day- then the start of a cool-down (like only 90's) till sometime next week-
craziness! sure zaps your energy!
no air at work either- but somehow the night shift managed to get it down to 74 in here---yea! now if i can just figure out a way to keep it on the cool side for the day!
drink lots of fluids everyone!
