Today was one of the worst storms we have had in years in Duluth. I woke up this morning at 3:30am to what sounded like a freight train passing through. It was wind. 74 mph. And spectacular lightening! Over 24,000 people in the surrounding area are without power, (including all of our local tv and radio stations) and there are trees and powerlines down, cars on their sides, you name it. I am very fortunate there was no damage in my immediate neighborhood. Several people were killed up in the BWCA by the border of Canada when a tree fell on their tent. I was just up there camping three days ago. Crazy. It is very very unusually hot here now, in the upper 90s F, and I feel for those with no power who can't even have a fan going. Crazy day!

My youngest sister lives in Arizona and doesn't do well with temperature extremes one way or the other. She'll probably take refuge someplace where there's AC (which she has at her house, I'm sure). I don't have it at home, but an occasional short (2-3 minute) low-flow cold shower works for me.
 
It's meant to be hot and humid again today.:yuck: It's supposed to get fresher this week, thankfully!
 
Its hot and humid, 35°C, the sun strikes me right in the eye. It feels like its going to be a good thunderstorm. We already can hear it over the woods.:ignore:
 
Roasting here....blah, lol. I know I couldn't wait for the warmer weather, but I really don't dig the high 90s with high humidity, lol. Dry and 80, please. :)

I'm still doing fine with the heat. I even take a 30 minute walk at lunchtime. Who am I? Lol

Same here, Poppy. The triple-H for sure. It's wicked humid today. Yesterday was really hot but not nearly as humid. We are getting rain tomorrow. We could use it. It's very dry here.
 
It was really horrible and humid here this weekend. My hair goes all wavy and frizzy, makes me want to shave my head. :DIt feels much fresher and cooler today.:)

I feel your (hair) pain. And It's getting more humid as we get into August.
