Heat wave

[Phuzzy4242]

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....

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.

just please send us some of your sunshine.

And send us some of your rain. We also topped out at 104F and are experiencing the worst drought on record.

We've had both - the hottest summer for years - 46 deg C - followed by incessant rain bringing blessed relief.
