Trinity Alps, Trinity County, Ca.
104 to 112 are normal afternoon temps this time of year, down to 38 to 42 are normal night time temps if it is a clear night.
Retired her for the seasonal change believe it or not.
First time I had a fire crew parked next to my workshop in 1996, I told them that those skinny little paper sleeping bags wouldn’t cut it, they said they would be OK.
Told them I had 2 spare bedrooms, with bunk beds, a hot shower and a real kitchen to cook in.
They said they would be fine, and besides they had to monitor their radio.
Laughed like hell when they came knocking on the door at 1 am (good thing I don’t need much sleep any more).
They set up shifts for the radio watch then sacked out.
I am used to it and it just seems normal to me.
The routine is, open all doors and windows at about 7 pm, close all doors and windows at about 6 am.
Keeps the house cool all day long and don’t have to buy an AC unit.
In the winter keep everything closed up with a small fire going, keeps the house toasty warm all night.
Every other day open everything up about noon and air it all out (except for northern storm days), rinse and repeat until spring.
I’ll be darned.
Didn’t realize it got that hot that far north ... or that you’d get a 60-degree day/night temperature swing.
