It's 80 degrees this morning with 94% humidity. Should get up to the mid 90's pretty soon and stay there all day.
Reminds me why I moved away years ago.

You enjoying the bloodsucking west nile carrying pterodactyls down there (commonly referred to as mosquitos?)
So it's like Hawaii (without the flower smells) and Alaska combined...
I was trying to do some bush hogging yesterday (on my acreage- get your mind out of the gutter), coated with bug dope and still had gnats crawling in any orifice they could find in search of water... whenever I was in the sun, it felt like there was a giant kid holding a magnifying glass trying to burn me... 5 minutes after I drank a bottle of water I needed another.
94% humidity sounds good right now... and we're overrun with grasshoppers down here- when you kill one and leave it, the others will come eat it.
Ahh the tropical desert

We're looking at Rapid City area as our escape plan (should it come to that).
If you open these in separate windows side by side and look you can compare

Looks like Rapid City is about the same as here (The Springs)
SD wouldn't be bad at all, too bad it's not an option for my job. We are also considering Reno NV as a possibility, anyone that has insight on Reno I welcome feedback, either here or PM.Quote:

SD sounds interesting. Besides being a free state what are some other perks?
Ditto. Born and raised there. That's why I live elsewhere now.Quote:

Lots of meth mouth amongst the townies...
