    Playing in a 2-day golf tournament this weekend.
    102 Saturday
    103 Sunday
    Tee off at 11 Saturday and 9 Sunday.
    I’m buying 2 cases of water just for my cart for the two days.

    ... yet there, the humidity is not as bad as it is here now. Reminiscent of overseas years and the short stint in Florida. Neither in good ways ...

    Rare instance here of consecutive 100-degree days starts today. 101, 102, 102 the next three days.

    An honest-to-God hard soaking rain happening today. 2-3 inches expected throughout the day. I'll take the brief respite.

    All the rain we haven't gotten the last six weeks has apparently decided to show up all at once.

    As of 10 a.m., the humidity measurement for my town (we have a small airport, so a weather station) is 96 percent. If it's worse where you are, you're underwater.

    I'm about to put a snorkel on the air duct of the hood of my vehicle. The turbocharger needs air, not water.

    But the humidity in the 303 is almost non-existent.
    That being said, you’re a mile up in the freaking air.
    As I said in my Keystone thread, 68 degrees at 9500 feet felt like 90.

    Yup. It's scorching here -- and now we have a fire near the Flatirons.

    Just saw that they’re saying 103 and 25 mph winds during our tournament tomorrow.
    Which will feel like you’re playing a 6-hour round in front of a blast furnace.

    National Weather service issued an excessive heat warning starting tonight (after is was upper 90s today) through tomorrow. I’m supposed to take action in the next hour. So if I wait until after dark (which is the next hour) what, in going to burn to a crisp? In not sure what action I’m supposed to take exactly.

    My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
