The U.S. is in the middle of a looooonnnnggg heat wave. The central part of the country has had temperatures in excess of 90°F (32°C) for several weeks. It topped out where I am at 104°F (40°C) four days in the last week. Even the statues are taking notice.

Thank God you have Fahrenheit. 104°C would be worse.

So you are saying you don't like it where the sun don't shine.... :lol: :-P

I would like to have at least some moisture. The plants here always look like they are dying or dead. Cacti and Tumbleweeds a plenty.
