No, not hot like some people, but hot like in fahrenheit.

Here’s our cheerful weather summary I received by e-mail this morning. (I did not add any punctuation):

Who needs a Finnish sauna when all you have to do is step outside in this Texas heat? Saturday we tied the record high by hitting 96 degrees. Sunday’s former record high of 95 (1937) came crashing down with a new high of 96 (2005). If that’s not hot enough for you, when you factor in the humidity, the heat index values hit at or above 100!!! When outside these next few days, make sure to stay well hydrated, spend some time in the shade, and take frequent breaks from intense physical activity.

Good news…by the end of this week, we will cool off…..but by only a few degrees. Even better news…the atmosphere might be able to squeeze out a few raindrops as well! Right now, the rain chances are low, but there’s always hope!
