| No, not the Buster Poindexter song.
Three days ago, the high temp here was below 60. Right now, it is a bit over 111.
That's not acceptable.

| Much nicer today. Only got up to 108. It has already fallen back to 103. Yesterday, the temp continued rising until about 6 pm, which is very unusual.
Ah. Balmy (the weather, not me (maybe a little)).

| Phoenix got up to 115 yesterday. Four people died. 114 predicted for tomorrow.
Quit complaining.

| Too bad all this heat can't be captured somehow. That's a lot of energy that could be put to good use somewhere.
Somewhere else. |

| Well, no more cool 94 degree days, I guess. It's now 108 and still climbing. Getting tired of this shit. Thank god I can afford the electric bills.

| Had a fairly nice day yesterday: only one hundred degrees. Rather pleasant, relatively. Now it is 105.5 and rising. It has gone up two degrees in the past thirty minutes.
By the way, the historical average high for the month is June is seventy-six degrees.

| It seems to have peaked at 111.4. It has since fallen to 109.5. This is getting ridiculous. I'm concerned about what July and August will be.

Well, it is now 109.5. Another warm one.

| It has zipped right on up to 113. Still climbing. The hottest I have recorded here is 114.4 a couple of years ago, but I believe that was in August.

| Sixty-four degrees outside. Clear and sunny, but not warm. Four days ago, the temp was fifty degrees higher.
I do not like climate change. I do not like it, Sam I Am.

I am ten miles from the Pacific Ocean, which is considered by many to be a fairly large body of water. I don't see how following your suggestions would stop climate change. |

| Too late to stop. Now it's time to adapt.
Ten miles is too far. "Near" is more like 500 feet. |

| But in another thread, you suggested moving everyone away from such low-lying areas.

| That's just smart, moving people before the water rises. What's your issue?
500 feet UPHILL. Do I need to make that clear? |

| I still don't see how my moving would obliterate climate change.
