It's warmer today. 14 degrees above.
Last night at 10PM it was 3 below out on the back porch and yesterday it got up to 12.
Word is that it'll go up another two degrees tomorrow. A positive heat wave. Nice and sunny for a couple weeks now.

Hey Kdub, I think they have some of that weather the others are talking about up in Flagstaff? Seems to me we took a wrong turn one day last winter and ended up there in sandals and t-shirts lookin' for the outdoor range. We had to turn around and come back down the hill. It's definately 90+ today out at the Ben Avery range. Think I'll go to the Scottsdale range -- they have air conditioning!

Only have 83 here at the house right now. Guess they missed the forecast by a few.

Very pleasant out at Rio Salado this morning, except a bit breezy for the shooters. I enjoyed it as I puttered around doing maintenance work on the Sporting Clays course and my riding equipment (battery powered golf cart with trailer).
