A small town just north of me hit 113 yesterday. It was already above 80 when I left for work this morning. We are predicted to hit 112 today - hottest in the state.

It's over 110 this week. We've had over 100 degree weather for the majority of this month. Enough already! I....am.....done!

I am hoping for a spell of hot and dry weather, the grass has not stopped growing this summer and I am getting too old to cut it every week. I think it was only 101 yesterday.

Guess I was in the cool part of the state, Okie. It was only 106 when I got in my car after work yesterday.

It's probably best that you don't run on grass unless there's a Taco Bell nearby to cure the munchies. laugh

They are predicting 113 today. We insulated and air-conditioned our Well House for the big dogs last year and they are making good use of it this year too!

OKC is on a year-round school calendar. I don't know quite how it works, but they have breaks of two weeks I think rather than 2 days in the fall, etc.

I wasn't aware of that. Did it just start this year?

We started that here too. Kids go back on Aug 8th. They get a 1 week break for fall break instead of 2 days, 2 weeks at Christmas, 2 weeks at spring break, 9 weeks for summer.

They also get out before Memorial Day in May. We don't have snow days as snow just doesn't happen very often - once every 10 years or so.......
