I'm not working outside, but it seemed ok out today. It is going to get much worse (humid) all next week. 97* and high humid I heard for next Wed. Maybe even Jeff will turn on the AC.

Because you don't sweat, Casper me and rob (dunno about bonzo) are more naturally inclined to attract heat

Its sooo hot, that I had to switch from a black Summit hat to a yellow Jegs hat... and Im a Summit guy, dont even really like Jegs.
2 more pieces and Im done this side... of course theyre the peak of the roof pieces so theyre the hardest to cut. Im gonna trim the back, slap the starter strip on and probably call it a day, or atleast wait till it cools off some.
And yeah, being a tan Italian sucks for attacting heat... but atleast I dont usually ever burn.  It must SUCK to be black in this weather!

I had to use an extra blanket last night because it got so cool with the fan in the window! I can't wait for it to warm up so I can get rid of that extra blanket. Heck, I drove the black SS396 into work today. It doesn't get any better than sitting in a black car with a big block! They say the temp was 85 with a heat index of 103 around lunch time. And the forecast for Monday is 99 with a heat index of 103???? Hmmm, if it's 14 degrees warmer I think the heat index would be a little higher too. These weather folks crack me up.

I worked in a warehouse in this weather last year, loading furniture like 400lb desks into trailers, i know just how you guys feel when it comes to walking in one... u forget to scan a box and the you have to go check, takes about 4 minutes before the sweat takes over the glasses and u cant see. Today i was mowing the farms field.... i was trying to raise the bucket on the front end loader to block the sun.... was horrible

It's actually not that hot yet. Monday will really kick up heat. Last night it was nice, got down to 65 and cooled the house nicely. Monday and Tuesday will be the test of how long we can hold out without the AC on. The amount of sun will determine that.
