...dropped a nuke to see what would happen.

Sounds like the sort of thing wee Drew would do...

Good morning   We're supposed to hit record high temps today.  92 with a heat index of 98.  Bleh.  Thankfully it's supposed to cool down tomorrow.   My mom is coming over later to help me move some stuff in the basement.  I have an engineer coming on Monday to do some drawings for the work I need done on the foundation.  I also need to call the company doing the work to see how soon they can start.  

Morning, Val.   Same here... another stinker today, but cooling down for tomorrow.

Temperature's actually dropped here by a few degrees, and also turned a little showery. They are forecasting the temp to get back up to around 20°C (68°F) by the weekend, although there could still be a few showers.

I've some cabbage seedlings to plant out, but I spent most of the morning carrying bags of stuff from one house to another. The transplanting can wait till the evening.

Aloha Dughlas hope your well today

Sadly, no. Nor am I any better today. Thanks though for asking.

It was the news reporter who said before the 5 o clock new that the air forces dropped a nuke to see what would happen.

Then when they came on again she said it was a mock nuke omg

"Just to see what would happen" 🤔 were they hoping for glitter?

Okay, so call it a hissy fit. 🤠

Fortunately we don't have the extreme heat, it's currently 80/27° but with 79% humidity it feels like 84/29°. Temp is forecast to stay in the low 80's. The highs and lows have been varying by less than 10°F.

I'm hoping things break soon. I'm in day two of a particularly nasty migraine.

Blessed be y'all?

O. M. G.  It is unbearable outside. The wind feels like furnace air... I'm back inside and staying here.

Stay safe and cool and hydrated! 

It's been cool around here for the last week. Barely 20°C and a bit cloudy. It was even cooler last week but it's great for the tomatoes, they're full of flowers

Hey, Gary.  We caught the edge of Cristobal, so, very heavy downpour last night. It's overcast and a little humid, but not terribly hot.

It's brutal here too.  92 with a 'feels like' temp of 99.  We're supposed to get thunderstorms tonight, then cool down significantly tomorrow.  My mom and I moved some stuff in the basement, and I finished Chapter 3 of my new story   Now on to Chapter 4...

Marshmallows have anti-inflammatory properties, so I hear. Apparently they can do wonders for a sore throat.

Marshmallow root has anti-inflammatory properties.  Not to be confused with this kind:
