Was still 110F at 6:00 PM when I played my Wed. night mini-tournament last night, it was still 106F when I was driving home at 9:00 PM. Same deal Tuesday night when it was 109F at 6:00 PM and I was playing at a different course. I consider it a free sauna-session. I don't see why people pay good money to go to the beach when I get the same conditions or worse for free :p

Pavement temp is 142F, highway dept was spraying water on a new section of highway to keep it from buckling due to the heat. I've had to adjust the bi-level temperature setting on my truck to blow more cold air into the footwells to counter the heat radiating up from the pavement.

Yard is showing large cracks in the ground. Birds are scarce, they're hanging out at the ponds/stock tanks.

Tree's are shedding leaves like it's October.

It might go down to 101F by the end of this week.

So, how you doin'??

It's so hot around here the chickens are laying fried eggs and birds are using potholders to pull worms out of the ground. Doh!

I apologize for laughing; but that is hysterical!

Oh, it's all right that you laughed. I was just going on, it isn't as hot here as it is in some places (but it has been upwards of 90 here part of the time and that doesn't happen often here). At least our Princess Tree likes the hot, humid weather.

Sorry, that was Fannin county.

Austin's a balmy 105/107.

My brother's brother-in-law worked the oil-fields in Kuwait (mega-bucks) and reported that they were supposed to stop work at 140, but they just stopped reporting the temps when it was closing in on 140.

Why are we over in that hell-hole?

I feel for you. The hottest temps I ever had to contend with were out west years ago when I drove a tractor trailer. On a run out to California, middle of the summer and hot as the hinges of hell (as one of my uncles used to say) and no air conditioning in the truck (no working ac, it had it but it wasn't working). It was 115 when we went through Phoenix and the nearest description I have for it is that it probably felt like riding in a big rotisserie with all that hot wind blowing in the windows. Most miserable indeed.
