5:45pm I drive down a 4 lane street, 101°. 6:15 I come back, same street, my one lane the only one open, 3 others closed. Heat had raised the street enough a car would high center, and pieces as big a gallon jug scattered for 15 feet in both directions. Glad I was not near it when those things flew. (the picture is not of my event, we had more chunks scattered further)
I remember watching a airman fry an egg on the ramp at Nellis (Las Vegas for you silly-villians)- Not impressed. The temp clock on the bank showed 118. Oh, but it is "dry" heat. Fuck it! Hot is hot!
ReplyDeleteUpside here in Hoosierland: Took Mom across the River to see the America Queen and the Mississippi Queen docked at Henderson and came back home through the bottoms - the corn is looking good and we had a nice rain this am.
Last year the canalopes in Sullivan County were really small - I expect to see a monster size crop this year!
