The sad part about living here in this heat is that everywhere you go you have to be prepared to "chill out" in every store or shop you go into. The hotter it gets, the more the a/c runs, and the cooler it seems inside.

So...it may be hard to believe but when my wife and I go shopping or out somewhere, she brings a sweater in this weather!!!

On the heals of the heat comes the que for the start of the monsoon season. There's continuing talk locally about dust storms and mountain thunder as the week continues.

Oh goodie!

Let's see, what sport coat should I wear to work tomorrow???

PHX only puts out heat Advisories when the temperatures are expected to exceed 110F and Excessive Heat ones for 115F and above-have to realize that we deal with REAL heat out here.
