Oppressive heat!

94 degrees right now here.
Yesterday in my neck of the woods, depending on which thermometer you read (either the one at the vo-tech school across the highway or the one at the local private school) it was either 99 or 100 degrees.
And that was the actual air temp, not a heat-index reading. Heat index was probably in the 110+ range.
It was before we got smacked by nasty thunderstorms late in the afternoon that cooled it down some.
Local met says we're getting a north wind instead of a wind off the GOM because of high pressure sitting over Houston.
