We had a long cool spring (last ski day was July 4th) but summer is here with a vengeance now. I prefer cool.

Speaking of getting the mail..... please spare a kind thought for the postal workers, not only the ones out delivering but also those working on the outdoor loading docks... (The five facilities I worked at had no A/C in any of the buildings or vehicles. Made having a hotflash even more fun!)

Yes,111 degrees and rising,and 56% humidity.Now as Paris Hilton says "THAT'S HOT"

A relative in New Mexico e-mailed in great excitement to tell me they'd finally gotten 1/2" of rain a week or so ago, on the heels of the driest 9-month stretch in the last 117 years. Wow; guess we'll count our overly-rainy blessings here in the Pacific northwest.

Your right,I always feel for all who have to work in the heat from the postal workers to the fire fighters,police,and esp the road/construction workers.Thanks for reminding us.

only 101 here in Killeen Tx cant wait for fall

I am not even going to look at the thermometer anymore. All I know well is that it is HOT!!!! And no darned relief in sight. We are in a severe drought as well. Happy happy. Not! I cannot wait until Winter. I can always add more clothes to stay warm if need be. With the wonderful fun hot flashes, extra clothing may not even be necessary. LOL When ya look at the News and their 7 day forecast is all in the 100's, it is enough to be downright depressing. I will stop my b*tc*ing for now. LOL

very hot in kentucky very hot.

It is terribly hot here in Arkansas too. Yesterday it was 103 with a heat index of 110. If it is this hot this summer what will winter bring?

It was 100 here today. Yuk I am not a hot weather person. The pool does feel good though. I have been swimming 1/2 mile every day and it feels great in there.
Thats the only good part about hot weather for me.
