Yeah, I don't miss that one bit. I actually feel sorry for ya as I lived in the Phoenix area for over 30 years. I'm now back in the midwest. You all can have that stuff, I'm done with it.

Ever since high school in 1970, my last homeroom number has been following me around. On ships, airplanes, trucks, tv shows and movies and on and on. That number is 107. My street number is 701 and the first scratch off lottery here in Georgia was 107. Yes, I have played it......

It's 94 here right now in northern NV. I have to go to Scottsdale, AZ in a couple weeks to see my mom. Supposed to be 115 there then. Not looking forward to that.

That is a bit toasty. Stay safe out there - the weather has been brutal.

When I saw the thread title, I thought you were going to say you cook tires too. Now take that heat, mix in humidity (which you already have in Louisiana), then mix in an unhealthy amount of Canadian wood smoke. That's what Virginia has been like lately.

I was down in Pensacola the last week of June so I feel your pain. Personally I love that weather, except that first 5 minutes in the car until the AC finally catches up

id take Florida in a heartbeat over Louisiana any day as far as temps. at least the scenery and the atmosphere is better while the heat is boiling the nads.

Nice-N-Toasty here in Phoenix metro. Last nights LOW was 93! I always laugh at the people who move here and then complain about the heat. It's Arizona. It's the desert. It's summer. It's hot. It's not new, its been happening for thousands of years.
