Sunny and warm here already. A mere 95° today. Looking for 100°+ for the next 3 days.

Soon to be blistering HOT.

Thumbs Up

But it's a "dry heat".

In the middle of July, the first three beers consumed by the pool aren't even wet. They immediately turn to gas as soon as they are opened! I have a wet vest to keep me cool. As soon as the garage door closes, it is dry. Yep, I love summer in Maricopa County.
