Holy CRAP it's hot

[pitw]

I do enjoy this thread .   Most of you talk of cold as a bad thing but Tik, Todd and me can just add more clothes and I'm trying to not imagine what you stinking, sweating and swearing guys look like going in the opposite direction .

Lemme tell ya Barry..... it's AFRICA hot here in Texas. I've been contemplating heading to the coast all summer..... but sort of leery and concerned what with the BP oil spill.


Let me tell you... there's worse things than oil on the beach.....































You're Welcome!!!

I can understand your fear of beach's Fos .  If that was the best you had to take pics of I'm a thinkin' that some seal skin parka's would help the scenery.

Heat Index was 122 today..... damn, it was HOT.

Tomorrow is suppose to be better. Heat Index ONLY suppose to reach 110

[pitw]

Wow do I hear you on the heat.  Went right up to 73F here today and they almost shut the schools[until they remembered they weren't open ].

Had a real temp of 97 today and a heat index of 105 while I was watching the sweet corn festavil parade. Supposed to get even muggier tomorrow.

BUT man that sweat corn is gooooood. Had me a few ears of honey and cream today with some white meat chicken and it was just awsome. Tomorrow some Illinois super sweat and smoked pork chops.

I guess in this heat it really should be called sweat corn

   It was 95.6* here @ 3:30 today. I didn't check the humidity to see what the heat index was but it had to be 100*.  Here we are now @ 5:13 & it's down to 75.6*.  Those thunder boomers that ran across my hovel this afternoon sure did the trick for us. I hope those good ol Southern folks that we all know & love so much are getting some sort of relief too.

It was over 100 degrees today with ultra high humidity.  I mowed the yard and about passed out.

It was a bad omen when I got up this morning at 5AM and the cicadas were singing   It was 76°F.  Then it continued to climb to 98°F.  Hot, muggy, and humid.  Glad I cut the grass last evening.  Dang cicadas are still singing as I type this.  It's only 88°F right now.  Yuk!  Can't wait for Winter!

Intolerable to say the least is this freaking heat wave .  77F and only a slight wind 5mph to move it around .  Man we do have to suffer in order to live the good life eh .

Nice weather you Canucks are having!

I recall last May when I was bear hunting on Lake Ile-A-La-Crosse in Saskatchewan Canada, we had snow the first couple days..... then it warmed up! I believe the mercury hit somewhere in the mid 70's and you would think those Canadian Indians were melting!! 

Them boys were laid up in the shade in only their under draws, moaning, crying, and sweating profusely. Us group of Texans thought it were quite humorous...

It made it to 103 here today and the real feel or heat index as most call it was 115.

I worked in the cook shack for a bit today and the thermometer in there read 125. BUT, We still managed to serve up better than 20 dozen ears of corn and a whole bunch of chicken and pork chops.

It doesn't seem to be getting any better

It got so hot this afternoon, that after work, a bunch of us grabbed a cooler of beer and headed for the river.
There we stood, shoulder deep in the river drinking beer till the sun went down

Shoulda took a pic, we looked like a bunch of cattle in the heat of summer standing in the creek. But boy it felt, I say boy it felt good.
