Heat perspective

From meteorologist Bob Rose’s eather discussion regarding the ongoing heat wave…

"While this is certainly significant, it isn’t close to the record of 21 consecutive days set between July 21 and August 2, 2001. So far this month, there have been [14] days with temperatures at or above 100 degrees. The record for the most 100-degree days in August is 27, set in 1923. We’re not near record territory yet, but several more days are likely to be added to this month’s list. No significant change in the current pattern is expected for the next few days."

So disregard the yellowing, crunchy grass and look forward to Labor Day when it should all be over for another year.
