Hot. All. Week.

Debbie at From My Shasta Home posted today that there is "just one more day until the start of the "bers" (meaning the months that end with those letters), and how it would soon be cooling off in her area.

I wish I could be excited about the beginning of September as she is, but in my part of the country the forecast for the rest of the week shows some of the hottest temperatures of the summer! As one of the local meteorologists stated, thanks to a heat dome of upper-level high pressure it will be "hard core" summer, with high temperatures somewhere between 95° and 100° Fahrenheit. The only positive is that the humidity isn't crazy high so there won't be much of a heat index factor.

The heat would be annoying if it came in July, traditionally the hottest month of the year, but in my mind it's even worse now because it's coming so late in the season. Traditionally things start cooling off by Labor Day (the first Monday in September).

Until further notice outside walking and exercising are being put on hold. Hubby Tony and I will be finding inside activities to do.
