    Beautiful blue sky. Or so I thought. Just got this off my home page for our weather for today:
    Temp 99 low 67 humidity 16% (Why, it's downright sticky out there lol -no it's not)
    And SMOKE! :eek:
    Smoke?
    I guess the fires are on again, not sure what is left to burn. Will let you know what happens.

    75F, 79% humidity, at 9:35pm EDT. Our sunsets have been yellow the last few days, and will continue to be, from the smoke drifting down from the fires in Canada and Alaska.

    I heard a woman at the grocery store today complaining about yellow sunsets. I asked her if she realized that people/animals/forests were dying and that's why they were yellow. She said...I swear to gods... 'well, that doesn't affect ME, why should I care?'

    I almost hit her. :mad:

    </rant> Sorry. :eek:

    I didn't stop to look at the thermometer, but I know it was dang hot. It was hot enough that my hiking partner and I only hiked for a hour today and that was return trip. :rolleyes: According to the weather report, it's going to be even hotter tomorrow. Talk about crappy weather.

    Going to be about 104 here with 70% humidity. It rained last night, so it's going to be a bit sticky. Like, sticking to the car seat, , having your shoes melt, and stick to the sidewalk,, that sort of thing.

    I forgot about the sunsets, we have had some lingering clouds from a tropical depression from south of the boarder of California, and remember I live in northern Cal. They have been great, with lots of reds, yellows, and of course hot orange. It was great, and wish I had a camera, but was in the community swimming pool with my daughter, and she pointed it out.....wobbles

    Could it really be true??? 2:15pm, 83F, only 55% humidity??? In Michigan, in JULY????

    Hope you all are safe from the fires we see on TV. It's winter here in OZ. Some places are down below zero Celcius. Canberra (capital of OZ) was minus 6 degrees C, this morning. Here in Cairns, about an hour ago,(5am), it is +12 degrees C (about 55 F, or so).Cold for us. Still haven't printed out a quick conversion chart. Better google it, or I will forget. Bazza

    Hey bazza, I would say thanks if I knew where this fire that is causing all the smoke in our forecast was! And I don't see any smoke! Not like last October, that was terrifying.

    @Fleppen: WOW!

    @dperino: Ugh. That just sounds nasty. :D

    Came across this site http://www.climate-zone.com/climate/australia/fahrenheit/cairns-airport.htm which gives temp statistics ( not a forecast) for most places in the world.

    Link takes you to Cairns Airport, OZ:) but you can search anywhere using search criteria.

    We are in the middle of winter in the tropics. A cold 12 degrees C, approx 54 degrees F, here this morning. Cold for us here. :D Bazza

    muskybob, thanks for the link. Tried it out with a couple of not common places I am interested in (Lungi--Sierra Leone airport) and (Solwezi--Zambia, where I am applying for a job in a copper mine). Worked for both, as well as the USA and Cairns. Bazza

    From the site musky posted, I poked around and found a local sat pic.

    I'm somewhere in the circle, as much as I can tell without streets as landmarks.

    The smoke is really bad tonight, going to be an awesome sunset. Smells horrible. I'll see if I can find home.

    Shiver Me Timbers MajorGeek

    Well, it's 8 a.m. and the sun is out. Feels hot and sticky already. With luck it will cool off early as I have to be somewhere this evening. :rolleyes: Just the kind of day I was hoping it wouldn't be.

    sunny here still, but with rain inbound in something like one hour from now... so it's gonna be yet another extremely wet, depressing day :(

    Today's high is supposed to be only 89, but after spending yesterday in hot, muggy Glendale, I don't care as long as it's not humid! And smokey, still really bad, everything smells like barbecue, eyes run, sinuses hurt. I feel really bad for the folks whose homes are threatened, we at least are out of danger so far. I don't think it can ever be as bad as last October, we had different fires on 3 sides. That was terrifying!
