Still far too hot. Gonna stand in a cool shower fully clothed.
Dulcie Wright It must be hot! Maybe you should run in the sprinklers???Delete or hide this
Mo Hurley That would imply a lawn.
Dulcie Wright Well find a lawn then! And walk in the sprinklers.
Mo Hurley No, just mean city streets. No lawns in Forest Knolls when I was a kid, and no lawns here in the urban jungle either.
Dulcie Wright EEEUUUW, how bout water pistols?
Mo Hurley Sure, come on over, we can be hot epistolary packin' mamas! Draw!
Dulcie Wright ewe betcha!
Mo Hurley Why is it every time I put on the summer sheets, the temperature plummets, and then when I put the flannel sheets back on, it skyrockets? Ditto with prying open the kitchen window—it take a wedge and some serious hefting to open it.
Galeyn White Molnar It got to 108.1 where I'm at today. Think I'll join you.
Terry Matsik-Getchell Ha, I lived in Puerto Rico a longtime ago and as spring/summer approached all I could do was take a cold shower and sit in a shady house corner in the wet towel and watercolour....five minutes later another cold shower.
I like the redwood forest!
Mo Hurley Poor
Galeyn White Molnar in Carson City. Can't you fall into the Walker River or something? I'm such a heat wimp. My grannie, from Bantry, was part lizard—she loved the heat.
Galeyn White Molnar Not close enough
Maureen. We're in Rachel, NV. There's not a lot of water around here. I did just take a cool shower (thanks to our RV water) and have cooled off considerably. I'll be in Mina, NV tomorrow, and temperatures are predicted to be higher. Hubby and I will have full hook-ups there.
Clifford J. Schwartz warns, cautiously: Ok; but in this situation, a Dyslexic Person might step into The Winter Clothes Closet fully naked.
Carol Ann Mangan it is overcast but muggy in Tacoma, but global warming is just a myth.
Chris Callaghan Supposed to be 118 on Sunday here. Right now (11 am) 105 on my back porch in the shade. Even the cats are stayin in the AC. Ha!
Mo Hurley Oof, only saving grace is that it's dry heat! We had rain the other day and it was warm and humid. Not normal for SF. Hosed down the cement and the windowscreens. Much cooler. Chris—better hose down Rocky the cat.
Glad I'm not in Death Valley: Office thermometer just hit 130! Be sure to check the park Morning Report for official temps.
Mo Hurley I got heat exhaustion on Saturday—rearranging the house. Lobster faced, dripping, and delicious thrilling chills, Not the right combo. Into the cold shower, clothed. Drop body temp with a pint of chilled h20 and a smoothie to restore electrolytes. Started hallucinating, the girl with kaleidoscope eye. OMG, I have a brain tumor—no, just brain freeze followed by an ocular migraine for my troubles. Never rearrange the house during a heatwave.
Chris Callaghan Oh Mo, you know better. Feel good soon, drink lots of water and don't rearrange the house in the heat girl!
