Scottsdale,AZ

Telling it like it is.....HOT.
Took a drive along the Apache Trail yesterday....didn't see one Apache???
A lady did tell us though as we wiped the sweat from our brows and drank our upteenth bottle of water that we needed to watch the dewpoint.If it hits 55% flash flooding could occur along the canyons....no issues yesterday.
I didn't need to worry about an Apache scalping me however.....hereditary baldness beat them to it...:-).
Think today I'll go see if I can fry an egg on the sidewalk.

Ha, you were there when it was cool. It was between 115 and 121 in July. If this wasn't warm enough, you could have gone to Death Valley. It was 129 there for a couple days.
You made it through

Why don't your drive over to SD, forecast is 74F today.

I would have melted away by now! Good luck with staying cool.

OMG I could never live there. If it gets above 75F I'm too warm. And I don't care if they say "but it's a dry heat" - it's too hot for my taste :-)

Hasn't gotten that hot here yet.....probably towards the end of July. Stay cool!
