Hot Temperatures

Heat wave advisories posted throughout the region for yesterday and today, and then hopefully, a cool down. Lucia reported 100 degrees on the coast, yesterday. I did not notice how hot it got up here, as I was otherwise engaged. Stay cool and fire safe, everyone! And NOAA weather discussion had this to say:

“TREND OF COOLING TEMPS BACK DOWN TO BELOW NORMAL LEVELS WILL

 CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK."

It was 88* in Pacific Grove yesterday and predicted to be around the same today. I haven't melted yet, but i'm close. LOL

I'm on the edge every time i see the spotter planes or helicopters overhead. Reminds me too much of lastyear and the fires just a couple blocks away on 3 seperate occasions.

I pray that this year we get more rain inbetween these exceptionally warm days in order to keep the fires at bay. The weather news reported chance of showers on Friday & i'm wondering if that means thundershowers? This weather reminds me of the Grand Canyon rim.

Yesterday here in Pismo Beach it topped 100 but it's much cooler today. I was really worried; the high humidity with the high heat felt exactly the way it did June 21 last year, when the Hidden Garden tour got torpedoed by the lightning fires.

Sorry to hear Sycamore Canyon got the dubious honor of First of the Season. Hope everyone down there is OK.
