Good Lord, it's hot.
120 with the heat index, 101 without. Absolutely oppressive heat today.

AC is on full blast, every fan in the house is on full blast, and the house is still 82 degrees inside.

2. Days like these
I am grateful that I live in the trees. It is at least 15 degrees cooler up here, compared to where I lived previously. Less blacktop, more trees.

Hope you survive the heat. :hi:

6. 99 degrees in The Nation's Capitol
with a heat index of 105. Yesterday, it was 114.

We're supposed to have severe thunderstorms this evening, and then a cooling trend: Highs in the low to mid-80s, nightime lows in the 70s.
