90 is the forecast high for today. It should be in the low to mid 80 range tomorrow and mid 70s by Thursday.

I have a meeting in 45 minutes, so I’ll be gone for a while too. See you later.

"but it's a dry heat"...

Well, it is. I've spent summers in Kansas and Arizona - I much prefer 110* in Phoenix to 95* in Junction City!

True...
But, when it's 120 degrees it is just hot - period. Somewhere below around 100 humidity makes a bit of a difference. - just my experience.

Anyway - How are you? - Good to see ya again!

Doing pretty good. You’re right...anything over 100, and A/C becomes essential to life.

One of the reasons I won’t go back to Phoenix is because it only cools down to 115 overnight. That and the dirty brown bowl that the sky there has become.

Gotta head back to work shortly, see you around!
