A HOT 3rd Saturday Of August With Continuing Record Breaking HEAT Making Me HOT

The sun has arrived this morning of the 3rd Saturday of August, Day 20, already heated to 87.4 degrees, heading to a scheduled high of 108.

Yesterday's high of 107 broke the record for that day, set in 194.

Yesterday was Day 53 of 100 degrees or higher in 2011, as measured by the official measuring station at D/FW Airport.

53 days of 100 or more is the 3rd most days of 100 or more in a given year in North Texas. On Tuesday we should reach the #2 record of 56.

The year with the most 100 degree days was that infamously HOT year of 1980, with 69 days of 100 or higher.

All  this HOT talk has made me HOT. Which means it is time to go for my morning swim and cool down.
