The oppressive heat continues! Today’s high is 106. The record on this date is 109 in 2023. Monday’s high was 106. Sunday’s high was 105. Unfortunately, the big zone of high pressure is back again tomorrow, if not slightly stronger than today. I brough the high down to 107 for Wednesday from 108, but the bottom line is that we need to be careful outside for the next few days.
