about the weather. Has been over 100* here for 11 straight days. My patio thermometer has read 112* for the last 4 days. Has been in the 90's at midnight!
Not Arizona hot, but way too hot to be out riding. Even tools in the shop are warm to the touch.
Have I mentioned how much I hate the heat?

Up here in southwest B.C. today was 35 Celcius which is probably 80-85 degrees fahrenheit. Not as hot as Texas but still very warm for us. A friend and I did a run to a town near Whistler today at even at 120 kmh it was still too hot for me. You have my sympathies for not enjoying the heat.

We have the monopoly on talking about the weather!

When it's hot, people usually say "hot isn't it?" ... der ... yeah!!

When it's cold ... you guessed it.

Enjoying our summer at the minute - very hot at times (for Britain) and set to stay until mid week next week.

Currently thunder a rumbling outside and rain due but still 27 (mid 80s).

Told you we talk about the weather a lot!!

It was 118º here in Phoenix today - 120º out at Luke Air Force Base, which is about 30 miles west of downtown Phx.

And then it rained. Of course, the temps dropped about 15º in less than an hour (in many places, but not all).

It's not always "a dry heat". <chuckle>

General complaints about corporal punishment. Here in Florida we have two types of weather; raining and gonna rain. Humidity you can swim in. At least it cools off at night.

I'm supposed to be coming out there for Christmas & New Year, think you could arrange for it to be sunny but around 75° by any chance?

It was in the upper 70s to low 80s today. A nice and brief respite from the normal humid hell that the midwest is. Good ridin weather. I got home before the rain got me.
