I guess I'm used to it

This afternoon I was out working on the carbs for the bike. I had a large mug of coffee and a cigar as I put them together again. I was sweating but I wasn't dripping.

I finished putting them together and went inside to wash my hands. I happened to glance at the thermometer and was surprised to see it was 91° out with high humidity. I was surprised because it didn't feel all that bad.

To give you some comparison my place is cooled to a lovely 80°. It feels great. Where I grew up, Cape Cod, had a high temp of 44° today.

And people wonder why I think all clothing should be optional?

It was 94F on US1 'round 11:30AM today. At 3:00PM it was a balmy 91 on the lanai and humid. Fall, where art thou?

It's not here in New Jersey. We skipped to winter with snow at 36 degrees.

Haha! I had to read that first sentence twice. I thought you meant 'carbohydrates'! I thought you were working off your carbs!

Dripping is good, though. It's my first name.

Think I need some of that coffee.

mid 80's last week

mid 40's this week

The saying in NC is if you don't like the weather, hang around 10 minutes!

Well it made it to 94° on the patio this afternoon. (In the shade with a breeze.) Have no idea what it was in the sun other than damned hot. Right now it's down to 88° on the patio. (1800)

There is good news though. A cool front is looking to work it's way through this weekend. The temps tomorrow night are supposed to drop to a lovely 60°. If it does I'm opening the windows and hoping the cool weather hangs around for a while.

Now I need to finish up the bike and get it running so I can enjoy the cooler weather properly.
