Damn, I knew AZ was gonna be hot.
115 today. Cooled down to 95 last night.
It's not as bad as 90's or the occasional 100 back in Toledo, but it's still fuggin hot.
I was outside (in the shade) to smoke, and sitting still I'm sweating.
I walked out into the sun where my good ole CHARCOAL grill is and checked the thermometer on the lid. 195 degrees with no fire.
I guess I could save on coal by slow cooking.:26:
It isn't beating me yet, but, it is hot.
 
it's not monsoon season...wait untill it's 115, and the skies open up...it cools to 114 with 95% humidity for a few hours...
 
Tim, I hear you. It has been hot here too. 95 at the 10 O'clock news at night. This morning it was 78. Felt like a cold front. I have some what acclimated. I used to keep ac at 70 and felt hot at 80. Now the AC is 82 at night 84 during the day and it is comfortable. I now enjoy 90 and don't sweat unless I am in the sun. What gets me is there are still kids working around in jeans and and long sleeves. Some even dress in black. Me I can't wear socks much less long pants.

I will take the heat over freezing any day.
 
Rob, when does monsoon season actually start?
I've heard conflicting things, and some are saying it's now.
We had a good dust/wind thing come through last night, and some were calling that a monsoon.
I'm actually looking forward to a torrential downpour monsoon.
 
Yeah Jim, I'm getting acclimated. and it's really not that bad, but it is hot.
AC is set at 78-80, back in Kentucky it would have been 74.
Back there, in my office, it would be between 70-72, and I'd wear long sleeve shirts everyday just to keep warm. Not alot of fat on this body (not a lot of tone either:biggrinjester:)
But I'll take this heat over having my hands go numb and white for a half-hour from taking out the garbage for a few minutes in February.
 
90 here, with 98% humidity:rolleyes:

but I like it, when you sweat , you feel like you have accomplished something:)

I am not looking forward to my trip back there during the monsoon season.
I would really like to come see ya, And please take no offence but I am doing everything I can to get outa that job.
I have been in Fla for 3 weeks now and this heat is killing me.
I kinda passed out 2 days ago from working way to hard and in and out of the heat/AC
hit me hard and down I went. I feel your pain man,that sun hurts.
 
I was thinking this morning that this cool weather we are having has been great for working in it. I have been outside almost all the time. It will swing back in your favor when you can spend the entire winter in shirtsleeves working on the boat and mine will be in a frozen warehouse.
 
I'm hoping this low-mid 70's stuff just lingers into early November.

The only thing that hasn't surprised me is that it didn't snow here last month.
 
Hey Wrink, yep went to a car show Friday with 2 sweatshirts on, windy, cloudy and about 60, just sucks for July. This show two years ago was 103 all weekend go figure:sifone:
 
It was cloudy all day yesterday, with a t storm in the afternoon. The high was 92.

I've yet to hear of someone dropping dead from a heart attack after shoveling sunshine out of their driveway. If I move again, you can bet it will be farther south. I went to Minn when I was 22 and in love. I stayed one night, and caught a plane back to Tampa the next evening. I've never felt the need to visit that God awful place again.
