Today was toasty. 114° on the porch, and 122° at the well.
But it's a dry heat.

I just measured 35.3 degrees Celsius on my digital thermometer on a shady part of my back deck...... at 6:50 p.m. this very hot day..... I believe we set records across the province today and it's supposedly going to get warmer in the next couple of days,so i'm guessing we're not done with the record breaking yet......I've never recalled it ever being this warm around here....I'm not going into any of the climate change stuff,but this "different" type of warmth and the gradual change to the styles of "tropical" rainfalls we've been getting lately sure has me wondering! :chin:
Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!
Walk and Talk like a Canajun!!
Farmers all over the midwest are expecting great crops, to make up for the last two years.

I know Indiana can be blazing and humid. But 114 or greater and dry ain't no bargain and will kill you even quicker. You'll dehydrate and collapse before you know it, if you end up caught in the sun for too long.
Personally I'll take neither. I consider 70 degrees too hot. I'll take sub freezing temps over high dry or humid heat any day. An ideal high summer temp for me would be 50-60 degrees. Give me a place that has short warm/hot seasons and long extended cool/cold seasons. The less hot or warm weather the better.
> 100 degrees is unfit for human habitation AFAIK. That is an oven, not a place to live.
I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Lightning will kill you quicker then that 114F dry heat......
I lived in Vegas for awhile some years back. loved the dry heat. I spent more time outside in vegas then I ever have in Indiana.

True about the lightning, that doesn't happen for a few weeks yet. I've been working outside a lot lately, and I really don't mind the 110+, but several hours in the 120+ is a whole different thing. There is a big difference between being outside in the heat, and doing demanding physical labor in it. This old mans body isn't quite as forgiving as it used to be, but I still stay very active, and it isn't golfing, swimming and fun shit like that. I don't mind getting the heart rate up and sweating at all, in fact, it's probably good for me.
I'll tell you one thing, I'll take 110 all day long, over freezing temps and snow. You can keep that stuff. At least I don't have to shovel the heat.
