The Heat that is Hot

I didn’t check the record for the date, but it’s one of the hottest days since I moved here 2 1/2 years ago.  It’s 1:27 in the afternoon and the thermometer says 113.6.  Ouch!

Update:  114.7 at 2:05 p.m.

Updated Update:  113.6 at 2:45 after topping out at 115.2.  Maybe we’ll go back up some, but there are a few clouds :-)

Update to the Updates:  It’s down to 110.5 at 4:25.  Not sure what it got up to officially or if it was a record.  I’ll check.  definitely the hottest day since I moved her!

Final? Update:  Just checked and it’s only hit 110 today at Tucson International.  It is cooler there sometimes for some reason.  Today’s record is 112, so it may be safe officially.

The Final Update:  National Weather Service says the high was 111 hit at 3:50 in the afternoon.  The record of 112 is safe.

I was thinking I should have gone outside when my thermometer read 115.  The hottest I’ve been out was 114 on the all-time record hot day in Roswell.  115 would have been a personal best :-)
