Of course I will be up in an area that will only be hitting the 70's for the next 5 days. Nice, anywhere near White Horse Lake? Yer lucky there arkayn, You have pine trees nearby and a cooler climate up north, Me I just have desert and for this week It's supposed to be between 90F(32C;Sun) and 97F(36C;Wed). Today is predicted to be as high as 92F(33C) and I'm fresh out of shade. Now You try and stay away from the fire... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

here's crazy. Arizona is in the news with wildfires. Big whoop. TExas has been having them for several months now. We are at an all time record for acreage burned in 1 year and we still have over 6 months left in the years. At last check we've had 2.2 million acres burn this year. The previous record was 1.8 million. I'd say its a really hot dry and bad year for Texas weather In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

Good one Chris S, good one. LOL I already tried that, Their numbers are out of service. But then We have a snow pack in Sierra Nevada mountains to end all snow packs, We'll be draining the water off that the reservoirs can't hold for weeks and some of that huge runoff will go through the Sacramento Delta, I'm hoping the levees hold there.

Ah yes, I did hear from P O'Seidon that they were moving, but they were not sure where, although there was something mentioned about South America. On their current (pun intended) where-abouts, I couldn't possibly speculate on that. Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

Of course I will be up in an area that will only be hitting the 70's for the next 5 days. I was south of Flagstaff, which is 30 miles east of Williams. I think we hit 80 once, but we mostly were in the 70's. We had a nice camp fire the first night, but somebody down the road managed to lose control of a camp fire and the forest service shut down all fires. Map location |

Let's ask the Dallas Mavs for help. They seem to know how to turn off the Heat. |

@2305 PDT it is 85F on my patio. No breeze. Earlier tonight, I had a soaker hose going on a section of the lawn near the mulberry trees. There are now 3 adult cats and 3 kittens laid out in that damp grass. I can see them in the moonlight, but if I turn on the porch light or try to take a flash picture, they will scatter.

I brought my bike to my parents house in Burkburnett Texas. I wanted to do a bit of riding this weekend. SUPRISE!!!! it was 101 degrees at 10pm last night, the daytime high was 109, and we have a 30 mph wind blowing through. The average temperature for this time of year is 92 degrees. another local temperature Vernon Texas reached 113 yesterday. Expecting more of the same today. Its a freaking blast furnace out there!!!

I've worked near molten iron, that's really HOT, hot enough to make Its own light, not surprising really as iron is made in certain typed of stars from fusing lighter elements into iron. Though heavier elements than iron are made in either a novae or a supernovae from what I've read. But yeah 113F is pretty hot, here its been as high as 115F.
