With temperatures like this, I wouldn't be surprised if (when) I have one. Heh.

Got water?

Like, a lot of water? If you're thirsty you're already in danger.
But you know this. That's damn hot though!  :mad:

If that's your engine temperature, it's a little low.
If that's the outside temp...  :O

 When I was stationed in Abilene we had a 2 week stretch of 108 degrees everyday. The shop boss had me out looking for gas valves that had been buried. I dug a bunch of holes in that friggin clay, and never found them. When I got back to the barracks my olive t shirt looked like it was tie dyed white with the salt that came outta me. I was spent.

Temperature hasn't peaked past 100 yet in Georgia. Six flags was murder though with lines and sun light beating down on you. It was 98 yesterday.
