I Pray for all in the HEAT

[Kathyp]

it is.  our highs have been running at least 10 degrees below our average for this time of the year.  last year was bad also, but this is worse.  gardens are not doing anything (weeds are good), and to have rain now may ruin or at least decrease the honey take for the year. 

on the + side, with the very heavy snow pack and snow late into the year, there is no water shortage and the ski resorts have been open longer than most remember.  the constant gloom is a little depressing.....

i guess we'll be eating mexican tomatoes again this year  :'(

Right now at 9:37 AM its 85 degrees 74% humidity with a real feel of 106 It list calm for the wind right now so none at all

At 3 pm today it should be 99 with the feel like of 118 oh this one is brisk 5 mph breeze I will believe that when I see it

At 11 pm tonight should be back down to 81 with 86% humidity and feel like of 90 and 2 mph breeze if you in the open

and at 6 am tomorrow it will be a cool 76 degrees with wait for it 92% humidity and a brisk 1 mph breeze you should be able to see the water in the air and a real feel of 83 which is cool for right now but I bet you could still ring out a shirt in 10 minutes
that is from accuweather

Oh and I don't live near any body of water so no breezes unless there is a storm coming
I wanted to let you know its like this every year oh and the forecast just went up to 100 for today :)

If the last long, nasty winter wasnt still prevalent in my mind, Id be complaining up a storm.

So I will only state the facts:
Its been putrid hot here.
During my last hive inspection I could hardly see through the sweat dripping into my eyes.
Good thing the veil protects me from the 2 pound mosquitos.

Haddon, if I had to live in Mississippi valley again, I would rip out that cotton insulation and super insulate everything with 6 to 10 inches of foam.  At that point a few tons of AC MIGHT start making a dent in the heat! 

It is a tough climate there; extreme heat in the summer, and much colder than Florida in the winter.

All I know is in January I was praying for warm weather, now that I have it, I don't guess I should complain.  ;)

Yessir RC!  I know you are.

Crazy thing is I'm not.  2 years here and I can go out in July/August at 8 o'clock in the morning and be covered in sweat in 15 minutes.  It's making me scratch my... uh... Head!

Schawee, I will take your word for it!
