    The National Weather Service is also reporting that it gets a bit chilly in January in many parts of the country so be sure to bundle up.

    Honestly, being in NE, I'd perfer this than rain. For about a month and a half I felt like I was somehow transported to Seattle ... without the long hair and pot of course.

    Was in a midtown-Manhattan hotel room Saturday night with the thermo set at 40, and the official room temp made it to 56.

    Sweeeet.

    It's been 95+ here for the last few days. Today it's only 90, but the heat index makes it feel like 98.

    My thermostat is set anywhere from 65-70, and never above 75. My roommate and I both like it cold in the apartment. We're lucky our landlords pay the electric here, or else we'd be looking at a massive bill each month.

    I hate it when I go back home for a weekend because my step-dad has the thermostat set near 80 and hates it when it's lower than that. It's always hot in my bedroom, even with the ceiling fan on full blast all the time.

    Just got back from a house fire. Had to wear bunker gear, of course. I'm drenched from head to toe.

    Thermometer reads 110.

    It is fucking HOT!

    what's that game in the swimming pool when you're on someone's shoulders and try to wrestle someone off another person's shoulders?

    "One area predicted to escape the heat plaguing the rest of the nation was to be the Northwest as cooler temperatures spread down the Pacific coast."

    Thank God I live in the PNW. And not just because it is more beautiful than every other place in the country. Love the cliche's though...

    That's funny, but I do need to know the name of that game. Is it chicken? That doesn't sound right, though.

    Speaking of Helen Keller, why did she ... ahhh, nevermind, I'd get in trouble.
