I was going to go to the farm this afternoon to weed, I thought it was "only" going to be in the lower 90s. But actually its 96 with a heat index of 101, so I decided to wait till later in the week. Tomorrow is supposed to be 98-100, with near record high humidity making the heat index 105-108. The weather service says to avoid working in the sun and stay in air conditioned environments as much as possible. Thats nice, but its not possible when you work outside.
Of course, its a lot cooler to walk slowly through as much shade as possible with a dog than it is to throw several hundred bales of hay onto a truck in the middle of a huge field, like I have done in the past in record temperatures.
Time for some free game demo playing, since there isn't much else to do...
