It's supposed to be 103º here in Billings, Mt today. It was 80º here just a couple of weeks ago and it's been slowly going up, up, up!!

Just how hot is/was it today for you all?
A friend told us it was 124 degrees yesterday in Bouse itself. Humdity is quite low so the nights stay pretty cool still.
Did not read our thermometer though. Will do that tomorrow to post here.
My son has a cute T-shirt he picked up in Phoenix. It shows a skeleton sitting at the base of a cactus with the words, " Yea, but it's a dry heat".

Its been in the 90s here all week. Today it was only ("only???" LOL) 85 and I was like, "Oh wow, its nice outside."
Its not heat thats the problem though, its the humidity.

Nice and cool 72º here with a yucky 64% humidity. But feels much better then yesterdays stats. 64% humidity outside, but in a non air conditioned boiler room. It felt more like 100% humidity. Love the dry heat better. I hate working, feeling like a wet gym sock.

Couldn't even see the North and South towers of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Supposedly pretty hot in central California. Here on the coast (near Santa Cruz, about 2 miles into the hills) though it's sunny, 80, and a cool wind from the blessed fog bank sitting just about a half mile away. Ahhhhh....
