With this government induce heat wave my husband and I have been in a self imposed exile in our house. Normally we would spend much of our time on our porch or out back on our patio, but are forced indoors outta the heat in our central airconditioned home. Last night we watched a VCR movie on TV, a comedy, called Shindler's List. What have the rest of you being doing to stay cool?

It was horrible here in Ft. Wayne today, my thermometer recorded a high of 105 this afternoon. It was like a blast furnace outside. At a little after 6am it was already 80.
In Huntington it was also 106. Paddles stayed in air conditioning, and I gardened for 5 hours. Have to keep my veggies and flowers irrigated. We floated in our pond for several hours. We had a hot breeze all day and if I get all my clothes wet in the pond and let the wind dry me its natural air conditioning. It hits like a hammer though when I first go out. I have some extremely happy watermelons this year. We planted 20,000 hardwood trees this spring and i'm very worried about them.
Criminy, you win. I thought I was doin' pretty good putting in 16 this year (6 fruit trees and 10 Green Giant Arborvitae in a row for a windbreak in the winter and a sunshade in the summer). It was already 80 this morning at about 6:00 again.

NE Oklahoma we are working on our 18th or 19th day of over 100 degree heat. Weather man said this morning that the 90 day outlooks is 100+ degree heat with little to no chance of moisture. I often wonder how they can be so accurate. Woke up at 5am this morning for the 9th morning in a row to over 85 degrees. Creeks are drying up and we have blue green algae growing everywhere.

Replies to Comment # 28. Looks like this oppressive heat is going to stick around only for another 48 though. High on Monday forecasted (which is all but worthless I realize) to be a cool and refreshing 90.
