As I type this it's momentarily cloudy and the inside temp. has just dropped 2°F. in 10 minutes to 73°. The roof-top air conditioner has run steadily for three weeks now. Outside it's currently 95° and 53% humidity. Temperatures have only dropped below 75° once for any length of time in the past 10 days or so. It may be Spring on the calendar for another few days, but it has been in full summer mode in Baton Rouge since before Memorial Day.
What in heck am I doing here when it's a cool, wet, rainy 58 - 68° in Maine? About to go to work hauling FEMA trailers to Dallas. Texas. Where it will be even hotter next week. And for the foreseeable future.
Damned fool Yankee!
Look out, Steph -- here we come.

So this is what the inside of Hell feels like...
Friday was hot. HOT. Bloody hot for Maine. Notched a high of 96° at the house yesterday, and 91° at camp and officially at the airport. Then the front started pushing into the region and the collision with the hot air spun off thunderstorms with significant storm winds, hail, severe lightning, and even spawned a funnel cloud in northern Maine. I swear, we picked up a couple of inches of rain in the space of a couple of minutes, even though the airport only lays claim to half an inch.
Today hasn't been AS bad. Hovered at 90° at the house and camp all day after a really foggy start this morning and pretty miserable humidity all day. But better than yesterday. These are the days I need to remember in January when it's -32° F with a forty knot wind.
