We are having droughts here. Temperature is around 35 degrees Celsius. Today, I was shaving, and suddenly the water got cut off. Now, I look like this bloke.

It was 34 here yesterday, and very humid.

Not so bad today.

Look at my avatar. If only I was a mullah por arriba. That would have been great.

Does that make any sense?

It was in the high 80's today, low 90's yesterday. I knew it got hot around DC, but wasn't aware it got that hot. I recall reading about blocks of ice being placed in offices in DC before A/C became common--it may have been back in the 1940's. Makes me wonder what August temps will be like.

Thats 45 degrees right? Thats August temperature in Granada. We have just had a spell of cold wet weather here. 3 days ago I had a jacket and umbrella. I dont ever remember it being so cold and wet in June before. All the weather is back to front this year.

Our best available science says it's only going to get worse.

It has broken heat records here in Austin, Texas for two or three days in the last week, over 100 F(38 C). We are experiencing drought as well.

The water in my swimming pool is only 80 F (27 C), so I can go outside if I slip into the pool fairly quickly.

I lived Austin from 1955 to 1989, except for a couple of years in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I don't remember it hitting 100 F during that whole time. August is the hottest month here. We'll see what it has in store for us.
