5. It's only 96 with a 17 heat index here in La Crosse, WI on the Mississippi. |
|
Better than yesterday.
I knew it had been bad yesterday when I got up this morning and it felt cooler with a temp of 80 which felt like 88. It was supposed to rain this afternoon and didn't, but that would have been worse after it stopped adding all the moisture to the air would have been more miserable.

|
lots of folks including me and my kitties are in very real physical danger.

8. At 4 pm, I went to the school track and ran |
|
12 laps. 3 miles and the last lap I ran backwards. I'm 62 years old and love to run when it get above 100 heat index.
But, that's just me.

11. I was born and raised in Columbus, and I remember those summer |
|
nights well. Hot and humid, no breeze at all. And, we did not have air conditioning. Only a box fan in the window. I used to take a wet washcloth to bed with me to wipe my face and neck to try to keep cool so I could go to sleep. Then I grew up and moved to Texas. August in Houston, need I say more? But, at least, everyone has air conditioning here.
