Not that anyone cares, but look what my Vibe told me on the way to class from work today. It was wicked...

*gasp!* I care... I care enough to say, I'm quite glad I'm not out there. Ouch! What % of humidity? It probably still felt cooler there than it does here most of the summer.

Wish I was there... wanna know what my car said the other day? 6degrees (note I'm in a canadian car and don't know the accurate conversion) STILL... BRRRRRR

Wow, you got me beat. Mine peaked at 114f° (45c°) while passing through Lake Elsinore on Sunday.BTW, 6c° = 42f°

in 95 i went to a big church conference in phoenix. at the time, it hit record highs of 122 ° F. I have a shirt somewhere that says I survived 122 ° F! and in AZ, there is no humidity! you walk down pathways and they are spraying out water so your skin doesn't feel like it's going to melt. it's a dry heat, like here, just not as hot.

It's more humid where he lives all the time than it was in Tennessee or is here in Ohio...it's crazy. Even though I was so much further south in TN, it was still usually about 10 degrees hotter in that area of Indiana than it was in Tennessee. Crazy stuff.

i know what you mean kari! the mississippi is about 3 or 4 miles from my house!

We were hoping to catch a little rain from it, but most likely it's all gonna go south and east of us up here. Oh well.

Cuyahoga River caught fire 3 times. 1936, 1952 and 1969.I was in Arizona back in 2000 and the average temp was 114. I actually enjoyed it somewhat. I would drink about 8-10 bottles of water a day. Not because I wanted to, but because I needed it.

You whiners all need to spend a summer in Houston, or Galveston.100+ with 90% humidity.
