Autumn may be in the air in some places and hurricanes are churning up the Atlantic, but not here. Friday was the sixtieth over 90 degrees F (32 C) day in the Washington area this summer. That is not a record (yet) - 67 90+ days is the record. Our heat pump is in the sun until noon, but the sensor underneath in the shade.
Thursday afternoon our porch thermometer recorded a cool 92 in the shade. Cooler weather is forecast for Saturday, and our 90-degree days may be over, but for now our Hot Hot Hot flag will fly!.

And here in Texas, the weather guy siad fall had arrived -- because the forecast high was *only* 90! It's all relative, I guess. Have a great labor day weekend!
I do not miss those Washington summers. It's been 90 degrees at my house once this summer. That's the same number of 90-degree days we had last summer.
I joined the Header Challenge team in November. We post a new header each week on a suggested theme. Imac is the founder and head of the team. The members vote for best header and the winner gets the gold. The links above will take you to the other participants.

I live in a tropical country so we get a lot of sun here.
