HOT! HOT! HOT!

In case you didn't notice it's hot. Just how hot is officialy determined by the National Weather Service at official recording sites, in the shade, in a grassy area, away from pavement.

But since most people move around outside in cities, near pavement, in the sun, with motor heat contributing to the sunny oven, I think we should make the official temperature what our fancy car thermometers proclaim.



This was the temperature at 5:45 this afternoon after my truck had sat in the sun in the parking lot for about 3 hours.

It leveled out at about 97 as the air flowed through it when I drove away.
