There's no climate change?

2pm, local weather station (Oak Park, San Diego) - 106 degrees, wet bulb temperature, 117 degrees. High clouds just putting a lid on a boiling pot.
This is the hottest day I've ever experienced in San Diego Coastal or Inland Valley, since the Navy sent me here in 1985. And it's early; we can get hot summer temps up through late October.

Hottest high temps for summer around here have been around 100 to 102, and those are usually later in September, early October.

I feel for the homeless. This is close to killing temperature.

Jim Inhofe proved that by finding a snowball once during the winter.

Yeah, but those who could do something about this don't. They are too busy d**k waving to care about another human being.

And the older granddaughter and her friends (6th and 7th graders) went out with some parents and a couple Tios into the nearby canyons handing out bottles and clear recycling bags.
Anyone who says all immigrants and homeless are viscious criminals are idiots. I've seen far more on the ground compassion and mercy in those communities than I have in comfortable church-going communities all worried about phantoms inconveniencing them or coveting "their stuff" near their backyards.

This heat was bad.
