Ensenada, sunny 75 sunshine predicted for next 10 days!!Have a heatwave moving in, for the next 4 or 5 days it's supposed to be over 100F. Eeeek, I hate the heat!
75 sounds like heaven right now! Even 85 would be doable, but anything above that and I wilt like a flower.Ensenada, sunny 75 sunshine predicted for next 10 days!!
I maybe didn't mention, house does not have heating or air conditioning. A blanket or fan when needed!!75 sounds like heaven right now! Even 85 would be doable, but anything above that and I wilt like a flower.
My A/C will be running non-stop for the next few days, I don't even want to see the utility bill.I maybe didn't mention, house does not have heating or air conditioning. A blanket or fan when needed!!
We’re in the 110-120s103F for the last couple of days in my backyard, and a few more days to go with this heat wave. My brain is melting like an ice cream cone, but this song still comes to mind (what's left of it):

We ended up having 3 or 4 days where it was 107 in my backyard, today it's cooled off to a mere 100. Temps should gradually go back to somewhat normal though...Denver is not being spared with this heat vortex, heat bubble or whatever it is. High's predicted in the low 100s with nighttime temps in the low 70s for this weekend - about 10 degrees above average for this time of year!
I've lived here all my life & summers were never like this. Sure, we could get several 90+ days in the summer, but the nighttime lows were always in the low 60s/upper 50s & it really cooled off at night. Now it seems like we get nothing but stale, hot air at night. Lol.
I smelled some smoke from a wildfire in my area last month already, but with this kind of heat it's inevitable we'll have some more hellacious wildfires this summer... at least I'm in an area where we don't have to evacuate, and I hope the same is true for you and yours. But, besides the smoke these wildfires just bring so much catastrophic destruction to wildlife, land, and property, it's depressing to think about.We are now blanketed in smoke from regional fires to add to the 100+ heat.
If it's warm and rain, do people still ride?Over here, apparently it's gonna rain a bit tomorrow.
“I’ve never known weather like this” in July, Daniel Marriere, the mayor of a small village in Normandy called Coulonces, told AFP on Wednesday.
“It is hereby ordered that for… the months of August, September and why not October, rain should stop and be replaced by bright sun and a light breeze,” he wrote in a municipal bylaw.
“Parish rectors across northern France are to contribute through top-priority communication with heaven, and will therefore be made responsible for the implementation of this rule,” he added.
