  1. Ah, listening to the summertime hum of neighborhood generators while sipping room-temperature vodka. 72F
  2. My temp is down to 76F, so there’s that. i may as well get drunk, there’s nothing else to do.
  3. Just a run of the mill thunder shower here and I still manage to loss power.
  4. Gust front coming through with power flickering.
  5. I’ll make a deal with Mother Nature—I’ll stop complaining about this week’s weather if she rewards us with a Christmas HECS. Snow start falling Christmas Eve around sunset. Temp crash through the teens overnight as the winds start to crank. Storm wraps up around noon Christmas Day with widespread 24” and lollies of 30”. Meanwhile back to reality: 99F/DP 69F
  6. 98F/DP 70F as we approach 2:00. Maybe I’ll make a run at 100F today after all.
  7. 91F/DP 68F. Guess I’m getting acclimated to this weather. Sitting in the shade with a nice breeze, it doesn’t feel too bad.
  8. Bottomed out at 74F, currently 80F. Forecast keeps me under 100F today, should only reach a refreshing 98F.
  9. Damn! Do you have to stay or can you go somewhere for the weekend?
  10. Got a rainbow out of it and what looked like a small patch of mammantus. 83F/63F
  11. Storm is passing just to my north but am getting a light sun-shower, 85F.
  12. I’ve always wondered what electric bills are like there. Their AC must run nonstop.
  13. Went out to water the flowers around 9:30 this morning and haven’t opened the door since. 101F/DP 73F
  14. While we’ve been enjoying our mild stretch of weather, Flyers GMBD dropped some bombs… Giroux is back. Typical Flyers move, bringing back a former player. Don’t know what he has left in the tank, but they need someone to play center. And a huge offer sheet to Leo Carlsson.
  15. Smart puppers! Dipped down to 77F overnight, sitting at 83F post time. Looks like another day of hibernation in the AC.
  16. Astroturf came from the Astrodome. Those hayseeds in TX initially thought you could grow grass indoors. Big fail! And thus plastic grass was born. Funny because I just finished reading Roger Angell's "The Summer Game" where he writes about his first visit to the Astrodome in 1966 to "witness weatherless baseball played on chemstrand grass under an acrylic-painted Lucite sky".
  17. I remember going to an evening Phills game on a day like this, 1999 I think. Even though the game started at 7:05, the Vet spent all day absorbing the heat and sunlight. Even after the sun had set, the stadium continued to radiate out all that heat like a cement oven for the entire game.
  18. 92F/DP 78F ...that's about 10 degrees warmer than this time yesterday. If I haven't already made my opinion clear, I'm not a fan.
  19. I'd pay good money to have that cell over Allentown drift down the NE Extension. 96F/DP 78F
