So, is it approaching anything near 130 degrees in the Pacified Northwest?
Posted by: Jewel at July 8, 2011 11:29 AMMy wife and I had our wedding reception in Indio, CA, lo these many years ago. Sometime in June or July, it was 120 degrees Farenheit outdoors. But to tell the truth, once it gets above 115, it all feels the same.
(I'd rather be in 120 degree dry heat than 100 degrees with lots of humidity.)

That's not comforting.

Never been anywhere it regularly hit 140°F, I take it? Once it goes above 130°F, it's even too hot for mad dogs and Englishmen...
