My Igloo is now just a big puddle :disgust:

that my sled dogs are using to cool down.

Comfortable 72 here. It has been a cool July

Looks like a false reading, Base Borden is currently reporting 34C. Still too hot for us Canadians.

I'm trying to convert C to F...

Whoo! just did, that's hot!!

Pretend it's F, that'd be nice and cool!

Nope it's correct. My shop is like a sauna right now.

Ohh. I'll take that.

That temperature is hot even by Perth standards. Do you need your passenger airbag on? lol

Hey, I grew up in the balmy South US, and I have decided my next move will be to Alaska! The kids were in Ketchikan ( SIL is in the US Coast Guard ) and I enjoyed the weather there.

In July perhaps but not sure about winter.

Green building in the background is Dolly's house.

@Ron Evers I remember Dolly's. Were the salmon running when you were there? We were too early for them.

Those things can be very inaccurate. The heat index hit 113 on a 107 degree day once in Texas and that was the hottest I'd ever seen it. I'm sure it feels pretty hot there, whatever the actual temp. is.

We were there in July & did not see any fish.

You're not alone. Miserable last week and brutal on Friday. That triggered numerous thunder storms throughout the evening and into most of Saturday. But.....Woke up to a glorious 62 (F) this morning. Hang in there, it'll break. Took a break from some much needed yard work to post this. It's only 75. Hallelujah!

Ya, it's been bad enough this year that explosive range alarm is randomly going off due to the humidity. Makes me glad I don't stand duty watches and have to answer all of the angry phone calls at 3am. lol

It was regularly that hot when I lived in Phoenix. I did all my own yardwork, rode my motorcycle in full leathers, and hiked almost every day after work.
