Dear Diary

Sounds like Florida... except we got 98% humidity year-round and our 'winter' are hurricanes.

Do you usually get afternoon thunderstorms?

Right now we are in a rare heat wave. Typically the July monthly average high temperature will range 95.5 F - 87.8 F. So we average roughly around 91 F. This summer, we are well above that by 10 F, averaging 101.2 F. Only four other times since recorders has been kept (1889) have we experence a rare heat wave: 1934 = 99.7 F, 1936 = 100.2 F, 2011 = 101.2 F, 1954 = 102.6 F, 1980 = 104.9.

Ah the South. Same in Alabama. Except for the winter. 15 *Ay caramba* degree mornings.

15 F in the morning is 15 F Highs for us some of the times. Coldest I been in was -21 F in Cleavland, Ohio, -12 F in Hays, Kansas.  I am sure that is a walk in the park for some way up north.

But we have the humidity on top of the heat wave. AC cannot do the job as efficient as swap coolers can.

Your'e right about that, but here in AZ, for the entire months of July and August you will be homicidal if all you have is a swamp cooler. It gets hotter than hell with humidity and storms.


I lived in Oklahoma and the humidity is a biotch, I'll grant you that, but I'll trade the 6 month long hotter than hell AZ summers for the shorter but more humid OK summers

Now summers in Mississippi, Louisiana, etc?  that's a different story.

How so?

[oakranger]

How so?

It just is. 

[jimson]

How so?

In that I'll take AZ summer heat over that in the deep south.

I would to but I can't legally drive, pay for gas, XBox, Aces High, or anything else (like oh I dont know, a house would help.) For AZ. I have a house. Its a perfectly good house (Normally I say I have a huose and people say "Oh and what color is your tent?" Rich bastoges.)

You spelled my city wrong, putz!


LOL, yep, I remember the -20+ days.  The plus side to that is it's too cold to snow and what IS on the ground is like concrete.  Easy to walk on, but tough to drive through.

I hope it gets real cold again this year, this heat SUCKS!

I think I saw one of your tourism videos not too long ago:

Dear diary,

Today was a fine day,

My freinds and I started making a calendar,

But were all getting tired of writing all the dates

So we decided to stop,

I'm sure no one will care,

Creaters of the Mayan calendar.
