That time it hit 112 was like the first or second year I was here in early September and I bet the heat index was way higher than the temperature. I know heat index here is well over 100 most afternoons in summer. I haven't seen anything over 104 F degrees since. Usually hovers in high 90's daily. Lows around 81 or so. That's a humid 81 by the time it works down to it. Just crud. Sometimes I feel I need to bid to a cooler station and I would if it were up to me myself and I. And even if I can get away for a week or two like in San Francisco to cool off, you still have to come back to this crud weather.
