UGHHHHHHH>>>

 Phoenix AZ breaks record for most 100 degree days in a year!!!


And if that isn't enough... The most 100-degree days record comes 

after Phoenix already broke previous records for most 110-degree days

 in a year and most 115-degree days in a year.  


Phoenix broke the record for most 110-degree days in a year on Aug. 9.

 As of writing, there have been 53 days over 110 degrees in Phoenix 

this year, smashing the previous record of 33 set in 2011.


Phoenix broke its record for most 115-degree days in a year two months

 ago on Aug. 14. As of writing, there have been 14 days at 115 degrees this year.


Phoenix had its hottest month on record in July of this year, 

only to be broken by August. Collectively, it was the hottest 

summer season in recorded Phoenix history,  which began in 1895.

One of Don's favorite sayings use to be

"Love the Hot Dry Air" but that's not allowed 

any more.   And I must confess that here in Gold Canyon

(45 miles east of Phoenix) our temperatures are

a little lower... Right now 91 in Gold Canyon with

a forecast high of 98 while it's 95 in Phoenix with 

100 degrees forecast for the high... so there goes another record,

 but who's counting?
