    Hot Enough For You ?

    116* ... I'm moving to Alaska..

    It's not so much the highs but I can't even enjoy the mornings when it's 96* at 8am......I'm heading to Chrissy's in vallecito for a month...

    It's pushing mid 90's here. But mornings are still in the 30's at the cabin.

    It hit 108* in the shade at the horse show where was working near Sacramento. The heat index put it at 115* It felt like you were walking around inside an oven. I was outside from 7am to 4pm. I drank 4 32 oz gatoraids and and 24 oz of water. Did I mention that I had to do that 3 days in a row?

    I'm glad to hear I'm not crazy... I thought it was just Texas heat. But wow? I took my dog out at midnight and I was like, "Goodness gracious is this humid and hot."

    "0530?" What are you talking about?" Okay, never mind... I finally figured it out... You got up at like five in the morning. Like wow... Bravo, Ben!

    ...That morning humidity is the worst... That's why I ride a scooter in Texas: If you stop, you fry.

    Notice the "busted beak?" ...That's from when I ran through a downed tree during a severe storm. Pitch black. Busted up the front of the bike, but I made it! (Thus the blue tape...) Nobody's fixed it yet...

    You need a train horn on that thing. Only thing I see missing.

    Finally getting to sleep in. Getting up now 5:30-6: or so, and the group that want to run their RC Cars wants to start at 4:30-5. Told them NO.

    My private weather station, with the temperature / humidity sensor located in deep shade, is reporting 99 degrees, 54% humidity and a heat index of 120 degrees. It's really hot in the sun.

    Is your station visible online? I see a number of weather underground stations around me. I always wondered how that works.

    I put up a picture last year of the guy who hacked his station to report 451* fahrenheit while the forest fire was burning. Me and about 2 other nerds thought that was funny.

    Sadly, the Weather Underground site went defunct this spring, and that was where I got my best local weather data. I had two sites within a couple hundred yards of my house.

    If you can still access the app, I would like to know, so I can reinstall stall it.

    No, but it does have WiFi connectivity and an app I can use on my mobile devices when home.

    This is what I have.

    I really like the rain fall features.
