High 90's with no rain in sight and we need rain badly lots of staying inside or in the pool. We try to get anything outside done by 9 am heat does not agree with me.

when I'm naked the neighbors call the cops. I was only gonna run thru their sprinkler once or twice! lol
Sounds like a great plan to me :!: :!: :!:

Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, we feel for you. At least we get some rain here and there. Try to stay cool.:)
Thanks for the sympathy! Yes, we are sweltering in this heat. Our humidity starts out "high" in the morning, but drops off to single digits by 3:00 pm. High for us is 40% - 70%. There has been a bit or rain in the area, but none at our place.

In 15 days, we will be celebrating the 1st anniversary of our last day with rain!!!!! Yup, August 4, 2010 was the last time it rained here. Drove by a golf course that looked more like an abandoned field than a golf course. Totally brown & dusty. Our main water source is the Ogalalla Aquifer & it is being used up. Don't know how many years/decades are left in it.

Our weatherman said our heat index was 115 yesterday and it got down to 85 last night. It takes my breath away every time I step outside. I have several things going everyday this week so can't stay in my cool basement sewing room. Everyone be careful because it is dangerous out there.
