    Same here Mark, 105 today. The sad thing is the last time we had measurable rain was the weekend after the Dragon.
    Any one got some rain they would like to share ? Please.

    Yeah, I don't even turn on the hot water to take a shower these days, the "cold" is plenty warm enough!

    I've had to refil the bird bath twice a day these days, not just from evaporation, but when the little guys find it they pretty much go nutso, flapping it out of the bowl.....I've also seen them doing something I've never seen before - drinking water.

    I wish :lol:

    No, I hate the power loss in my almost-stock little R53 with the ac on.
    So I suck it up and just sweat..... another reason vinyl seats are good... they wipe right off :ihih:

    It is becoming very ungreen here, leaves are falling off of trees, and lots of brown ones barely hanging on. Gardens are dying, and most lawns are yellow/brown, except ours, which is Bermuda grass, horrible stuff:incazzato:, but is thriving in this weather:mad2:. May be some rain coming today, but likely to little to late to help the trees:frown2:

    Pretty much the same here, I haven't mowed since early June...

    Rose was in the back yard a couple days ago and said the grass felt "crunchy" when she walked in it, and even the dog's don't like going outside to do their business.

    Trees are dropping leaves like crazy, the berries on the crabapple tree are a sickly orange and it's like it's raining berries these days - they're not ripe, just falling off the tree. The birds and squirrels that normally love the bright red berries won't touch them.

    Pin oak nuts have started falling off the tree, and they're still green. Don't know what that means exactly, if anything....of course they usually don't start dropping those till October.

    I'm wondering if we're going to have another very mild winter, or if we're gonna get slammed?
