Kristen,
We are setting heat records here daily. High yesterday at my house was 116, low in the 80s last night. This heat just burns the skin and I see construction workers wearing long sleeve cotton shirts as they said it just burns them really bad. We should have a cold spell in the later part of this week as the forecast is for it to drop down into the 104/108 range. All Winter we set records for rain and now this. Over the weekend they had 4 deaths in Redding that were caused by the heat. I am tired of staying inside, but this is just to hot to get out in. I won't even go into the garage as it is worse than a sauna.
