Is it summer yet in your neck of th woods?

Our daily highs in the Gallatin Valley aren't even up to your daily lows. Not even close for most days. This has been a very cool spring here. We've maybe gotten to 80 once this year so far, weeks ago now. Haven't had to turn on my AC yet!

Don't know how you Texans manage. I've got a friend in Austin, and it always kills me hearing about how hot it is there. Haha.
 
We set an all time record for th heat index…117 yesterday..today they are forecastin 118..is this August?

How do you even manage? My friend in Austin said he was playing in a recreational softball game last night, and when the game ended at 10:30, it was still 92 degrees outside. Yuck.

By comparison, I ran the heat in our house this morning. It was 37 degrees out and the roofs had frost on them. Had to wear gloves, long pants, and a jacket on my bike ride.

Guys, mowed th lawn at 10 yesterday morning when it was 88 and 100 heat index. Drank my Gatorade and sweated on..got th inside nice n cool and I browse through here to look at pics where th temps are cooler..or at least a lot less humidity!
up north in th cold ya can put on more clothes..here, they don’t want me takin off more clothes!
 
They are still working on the Tioga Pass Road through Yosemite. Thick ice and a damaged road bed is making the process much more difficult than usual. The latest opening of the road in history is July 1. That might change this year.
 
Sawatch mtns looking west from near the summit of Elbert, on June 19. While winter snowpack was just above average a cool spring kept it all lingering

It blows my mind when you realize at times how ridiculous th human mind can rational things..foe instance, I’m sittin here this mornin thinkin, wow what a great 3-4 day forecast. Cause it is forecasted to be ONLY IN th upper 90s.. 99 degrees with it still 105+ heat index.

hopefully this time in a few weeks I’ll be able ta get some goose bumps due to th chilly weather up in th Rockies.

have a great day where y’all are!

Sincerely sweating in Texas..


PS. Bob..believe We’re takin yer advice in movin bout 400 miles north God willin…still hot, but, 8 hrs closer to th high country of th Rockies!
