Stay cool everyone!

I know here it's gonna be 109/110.




But it's dry heat!

I must admit, I'd take a 100 degree Fahrenheit , sunny day, over a dreary, cold wintry day, hovering at a mere 20 odd degrees above zero Fahrenheit!

Same.

Supposed to get a little rain here tomorrow.

I agree...as long as there is AC.

Vegas "winter" is great...for the most part the temps are pleasant between 40 and 70.

To this northern girl, "heat" and "enjoy" are two words that do not belong in the same sentence.

It's 91 w/ 10% humidity and 9:35 in the am. If it weren't for AC this northern girl would melt by the end of the day.

20F? I don't think I break out a proper winter coat for 20F, although I am glad for the steering wheel warmer.

When I first moved to Henderson, I was at a cross walk waiting for my light. There was a woman next to me dressed just like Kenny from South Park.

Kenny >

Now...it was about 45 or 50 and this lady, dressed in full length down coat, scarf, hat and hood, mittens was wicked shivering. I'm wearing a tee shirt and windbreaker...unzipped.

I don't break out the proper winter gear till 20 either Red.
Which means it has been sitting in a zipped bag for 8 years.

I openly, honestly admit; 100 degree days help this old codger's bones feel better!!!

My power company msg'd me today that my power consumption was increased between 7/1 & 7/3. No sh!t, sherlock - we had a heatwave. I don't mind the heat, per se, but the humidity kills me.

I will note that I don't have central air and currently only have an installed unit in my bedroom (I do have two more units, but can't physically install them myself). But there's a nice enough breeze downstairs so as to be tolerable during the day - with fans, cool showers, and spritzing with water as needed. Dogs are in the basement, and cats get either spritzed or just wet down w/a washcloth.
