    They're still saying 113 for us here today.
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    Yuck. And I thought it was bad last week when we got up to 102 and 103 a couple of days. But at least we still got down into the low 60's at night. And now we're back to normal. 50's at night, 80's during the day.

    The temps are definitely above normal here, was in the 90s, but considering that's much cooler than Portland (!) and our scorching days are still no doubt to come, I can't really complain. We aren't being hit that hard yet. And more people probably have AC as hot is not unheard of.

    We will be 102 today. I waited until 8:30 to walk the dogs last night and usually it’s 80 by then. It was 95. We walked slowly and only half the distance. I really feel for those hotter. I remember when no one had AC. Very grateful for it!

    Yeah. If I ordered a swamp cooler from Amazon, we'd probably never have another day over 80.
    So far, I'm just toughing it out, but I'm on my third quart of liquid and supplementing with electrolytes.

    Do you have a fan at least, a box fan or a floor fan?

    I have a fan, but with this level of heat it's just blowing hot air around.
    I survived this round; I have my windows open and the cool breeze is heavenly.
