Who turned the heat on?

[freedhardwoods]

If it would get just a little bit hotter, we could pick our veggies already cooked straight out of the garden. There is already enough water in the air that I think I can see them starting to steam on the stem.

Just for comparison The Weather Channel said that the highest heat index ever recorded was 2 years ago in Saudi Arabia. 176*

Tell me about it! It rained the other day, and rather than cool down, I felt like I was being steamed!

This heat is awful.and the humidity. Makes it worse for those with breathing problems.I cant even imagine heat index of 176.Temp is 90 now and rising.Ya'll try to stay cool.

LOL. This thread is so FUNNY I about fell out of my chair. The weather has suddenly shifted gears and yesterday it was 98 deg F heat index 108 degrees. I got out of bed at 6 am sun had been up only 30 minutes it was already 80 degrees. I went to the garden it was like a steam bath in 15 minutes I was so wet with swet it looked like I had been sprayed with the garden hose. I picked a basket of Blue Lake bush beans, 1 tomatoes, several bananna peppers and bell peppers. It will soon be time to start canning.

It's hot here too! And so humid--ugh! Can't stand it. I went out to water this morning and the plants were covered with droplets. I don't think it rained, though. It's just that humid.

If only we could garden through the window...

More reasons to enjoy beautiful southern california. Now, if I could only find a job!

94 degrees, 90% humidity. Put in 3 hours mowing and weeding. I've only had a gallon and a half of water today. Only vegetables could love this. We work in the heat of the day because the mosquitoes wont come out when it's this hot.
