To be honest, I'm very surprised how temperate our weather has been so far. Usually by now we'd have the "its unbearable to be outside" heat, but like right now it's showing 74 with a feels like of 81.
There's nothing unusual about us having 100+ days this time of year. We don't normally get long periods of it till July and August.
Your weather is much different. We don't have the high humidity like in LA. I can't stand the humidity. I guess it's really all about what your use too. I'm fine with 100 degrees here, I visited my sister in Houston and it was only 90, I was miserable because of the humidity.
I've lived in the hot and wet as well as the hot and dry. You get used to either one, you just have to be there long enough to get used to it. I'm not sure that I have a preference.
I don't know whether we hit 100 on Saturday. I was afraid to go outside. Sunday was much nicer, though blustery...with a significant chance of flats. I went right home and ordered new bike tires. The ones I have are just too thin for this area. I intended to replace them anyways, and had figured out what I was going to get, but I've had far too many flats already this year.
Hopefully, flats are peaking.
Photoshopped a couple of ghosts over this Morocan well.

If I was Tusken Raider, you'll find me here:

Tuskan raiders would never be found in water. Those outfits take way too long to dry.
I’m in northern Georgia for the week and it’s bizarre. It is literally 68 degrees in June. I’m not used to it being this cold!
That seems unusually cold for Georgia at this time of year, north, south, or inside out.
We may touch 100...again, or not. Sure looks like rain will happen today (in the form of thunderstorms), but it's not forecast until tomorrow.
I got to go exercise in the heat as part of a physical assessment for work. Scored in the 99+ percentile on push-ups and sit-ups, then went out and melted in the sun. Had to soak my head once I got back in, cause I was too sweaty.
We hiked Tallulah Falls this morning and it was gorgeous (get it, gorge-eous). I still can't get over how nice it feels out here.
How were the ticks?
I didn’t see any, thank god.
How abouts the Toks????Quote:

Sign of the times.
I'm not actually certain that ticks are a big issue in northern Georgia, though I don't know why they wouldn't be, considering they are common in other states at that latitude and altitude. Ticks are frightening because of the weird diseases they can transmit.
