heh heh. Yep, around here also. I am in central Alabama, and here around the 'hood we have had daily highs over 90 since April 21, and we just finished up a run of 9 days with temps over 100. Right now (1:20pm) we are at 93, with a forecast of 97 for today. I have been doing yardwork, but I get out at daylight and go for an hour or two, and give it up. Too hot to ride, for the most part, and the house A/C is struggling. We are in "Extreme" drought condition.
I am a bit concerned though - historically, when we have a mild winter and very hot summer, it is followed by a hard winter. Ah well, I need to do some scooter work anyway...

Where you at in 'Bama? I'm here in Chelsea and about to burn up. We just got back from a scooter ride and it was 97. We were out about 25 minutes and got back to the AC just in time. We need some rain! They're talking 40% on saturday but I'll believe it when I see it. Thanks Alley, just what I need, a hormone surge. Rich

Tell me about it. I am in Trussville. Right now, I am showing 97. Sheesh...

I just noticed from your reply that I did not have my location in the profile. It's there now.

It has been mild here in Florida, lower and mid 90s... Great for riding

We had 10 in a row at 90+ with some at 100. It's been too hot to do much of anything. The worse part has been no appreciable rain. Everything has been wilting. We finally got a decent rain this morning but it's going back into the 90's. It's been hotter here than in some parts of the south.

Here in Palm Springs it hit 118 (Ouch!)
