OK guys, I've had enough of this weather already!!!!! It ain't even "mid-summer" yet!!!!:duh::ahhh:It's been hot here since the Memorial Day weekend.......give or take a few days in there. This past weekend, my retriever club had our regular hunt test..........it was miserably hot. I hate running dogs in that weather. :pant:However; since last week Thursday, we've been over 95* everyday since. Monday thru today at my house have been over 100*.........with little or no wind!!!!!! Tuesday hit 103.5 on my digital thermometer, yesterday, 106.7 and todays temp is what you see in my pix as of 12:40PM on Thursday!!!!:pant: It'll be at least what yesterday was. The round thermometer is on my East facing deck and it's not in the sun, but catching all the radiating and reflecting heat off my deck!!!!:stuned:I'll take -20* over this crap any day!!!!:thumbup2::2cents:

Boise hit 100°, but I only saw 99.8° at our place. Down to 95° now as a thunderstorm is moving in. It feels pretty humid, but I just checked and it's at 14%...

The way I see it is this.........you can always add layers of clothes and burn more fuel to keep warm. You can only strip down so far before the police come and get your naked butt and haul you off to the fun house!!!

I agree!! However, I am not sure "fun house" is the correct term when you show up nekked...

101 and 70% here in Iowa. Back home in the SE we would kill for low humidity. It allways seems to be 100%.

:ahhh: 101F in the shade, 115 in the sun! I think something must be wrong with the thermometer... Certainly don't feel that hot..Maybe cause I'm acclimated to the heat now from all the fire dept. stuff. :lol:A cool 70F in the house with the A/C on. :thumbup2:Weather site says I'm at about 92F though. :think:

Todays weather stats for Mopar1973Man... High of 99*F Low of 60*F ...and it's still 87*F in the house right now.. No A/C here...:pant:

No a/c that would suck. It has been in the 90's here an my home a nice 72. Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk 2

Do you leave your windows open during the day? We have central air as it is very humid during the summer months but last week the control board in the furnace went south, leaving us "stranded" during the hottest week of the year. In the meantime, we have been keeping the house buttoned up tight during the hottest part of the day until the evening hours when its cool enough to open the windows up for some fresh air. Its been between 96 and 98* everyday so far with a heat index of 102 to 104 and the hottest our house has been is 84*. Im gonna hug my ac man when he shows up with my board. :)

Mikey! You need to get a window-unit... No sense in not forking out the cash for one! I know, there expensive... I guess you are probably doing all your work in your truck, huh. :lmao:

Windows and doors open during the night to bring in all the cool air. Like this morning its 61*F which feels nice for me. Here in about hour or so the sun will rise over the mountain and we draw the window shade and close up the windows and doors.

Saturday, it was like 105*F with 112*F heat index.Sunday was 100*F with a 105*F heat index.Last evening, a wicked thunderstorm blew in, followed by a cool front.Right now, 71*F with a 77*F heat index.Looks to be in upper 70s to lower 80s here all week. YAY!

It was 113 here in Texarkana yesterday night...

Yer so Texhun LOL

Man, I want to move back home :banghead:

I lived in Amarillo for 2 years, so technically, I'm a former Texican. Didn't like the 115*/10% humidity days then also ...........only saving grace was that Amarillo is at 3600 feet, and cools down nicely at night...............but still not cool enough for me!!!!:smart:
