How Hot Is It?

It has been a really hot summer. I keep waiting for a break from the heat, but the best break we get around here is the occasionaly partly cloudy day that blocks the sun briefly.

It's monsoon season, but it's been rather dry ... and not even many clouds to speak of. The big afternoon monsoon clouds seem to hover around the valley, over the mountains.

Take a look at the August temp calender below. I looked ahead to September and the forecast indicates we won't see a break from these 100++ degree days til late September. And even then, the temps hover around the high 90s.
