I don't mind temps in the 90s, but temps over 100, ugh.

106 today
111 tomorrow.

Not looking forward to that. At least I am not at work till monday. Temps will drop into the high 90s, but sweating through multiple uniforms during the shift is never fun.

I'm with you there. It's too dang hot!

I start outside work on hot days as early as possible but cut off around 2 for the day. No sense in killing myself the get a deck built or something.

We only hit 90 yesterday and I thought it was toasty. Much better than the almost two years I did in the Phoenix area though

When I worked for the BLM we would deploy to Phoenix, Wickenburg, or kingman from june to july. It was always stupid hot. The worst was leaving Montana at 60 deg and going down there to the heat. It took a solid week to acclimate.

We slung a weather on a fire in Baghdad, AZ at 120 deg. It was stupid.

This is pissing me off, I hate the heat.  Growing up in the south, not sure how I was out all day, all summer, in hot ass weather.

I'm sweating all day every day. No escape in my apartment at 91 deg.

MTB rides have been brutal.

Awesome line of thunderstorms just came through with lots of rain, and cool strong wind.

What a relief, though temporary.

That rain storm felt great….ill take any relief…though my dog is stressed out.

Glad there is no hail to speak of, also
Some will die in hot pursuit in fiery auto crashes.
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes.
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain, that's pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.

We had 2 big storms roll through this week. Lots of lightning and a decent amount of rain. We will see how many fires are out there when the wind kicks up again.

I can remember some days of 110f in Billings.

Wish we could send our rain down that a way.
Been drowning in rain.

Loved Wickenburg the first week of September.  My dove hunting retreat for many years.  Not worth it to me anymore to make that trek plus I don't like that kind of furnace these days.

Wickenburg wasnt a bad duty station. Other than it being nuclear hot.

I was posted there for a few weeks right before the fire that killed the 19 fire fighters. I remember driving through yarnell and thinking it was a tinderbox.
