Sikes Lake Summer Solstice Heat

 It was to Sikes Lake I ventured this morning on the longest day of the year, also known as the start of Summer, or the Summer Solstice.

As you can sort of see via looking above the patch of prickly pear cactus clouds are blocking the sun at my location on this first day of Summer.

But, the sun was able to get through the cloud clover enough to heat the ground level into the 80s.

And then there was that vexing humidity making that temperature in the 80s feel way hotter, as in a real feel in the 90s, according to AccuWeather.

The current temperature forecast for my location has us getting heated to over 100, day after day after day, starting next week.

I hope the heat kills off the swarms of biting bugs...
