Snarking On A Tropical Becker Island

[1066vik]

97 today, heat index of 111 -- so I spent an hour or so at lunch grilling burgers and all-beef dogs for the office picnic over an 8-burner propane grill.
after the first batch, I decided 4o burgers at a time was too many burgers once the grease started bubbling out.
scorched some hair off, but not too bad.

Daughter and her fiancé went out on the water to do a little fishing. They had company...

It was down right chilly today, only 98*. Great day for ironwork.

pouring like a mad fiend at the moment.
yesterday it got up to 98 with a RF of 111. at 11 PM, the RF finally dropped below 100.
today topped out at 84 at 11AM - then the clouds rolled in and the temps started slowly creeping down.
at 7PM it was 77 - when the rain started, currently it's 71.

That's it, no more Mr. Nice Guy. 100* into the foreseeable future...C'mon Winter!

Y'all should post where you are from with the temperature so I'll know how sorry to feel for you.

We're on the road this week, beating the heat by playing in the Buffalo National River and waiting for the cool front to come through.

Front has pushed through north central Arkansas and its a beautiful 75 degrees.

I might just have to stay here.

79° here. Beautiful day. Got home from work, and spent 3 hours burning the brush pile.

American south west, SoCal in my case, the I.E., east of Lost Angels.
To loosely paraphrase the weather guy; "High pressure from the four corners area has moved west, combining with moisture during the evenings coming north from the Gulf of California has created a tropical heating effect...."

Just spent a week up at the cabin. The weather was great in the mid 80s and low 90s in the daylight in the 50s at night wish you all had the same

That's a great view!

I just got stuck in traffic.

My BK62 just arrived! Excited to get out in the backyard and make a fire tonight and test her out. Been a while since I got a new Becker. This one is unlike any others with the wood, leather and nekkid blade...
