Greetings Guys; Good thing we don't have global warming or it would be damn hot? I find it hard to believe that some people don't believe it's happening! I'll be 71 in a few weeks & winters here are much milder that when I was a kid. Even just 20 years ago we had harder-colder winters. Anyway back in 66-67 I was in the Air Force stationed in Libya along the coast, I did see a 117 but mostly 110 to 113 for highs. So I kinda know what you South Western are experiencing, try to keep cool. And keep in mind that you don't have to put up with winter & SALT, nor do you have to shovel heat or rain. We call it cabin fever when ya gotta stay in the house for weeks-months during the winter. Heat the garage & work on the hobby car. So my advice is air condition the garage & do some wrenchin'. Oh by the way my garage is heated & air conditioned & it only took till I was 52 before I could afford to have these luxuries. Keep on keepin' on, Ole' Bob.
