All throughout April, May and June we were all whining about how miserable the weather was. A steady steam of chilly, gray and wet days came our way. Now things have turned by 180 degrees. On Saturday we were around 90 (official high: 89). Yesterday it was the mid 90s, with the airport temperature topping off at 93 degrees. Today will be even hotter. Many parts of the Spokane metro area will hit the century mark, although I think the airport's official thermometer will come up a degree or two short. In light of the fact that the spring was so rotten I don't want to hear anyone complaining! This heat wave will continue into the middle of the week, with tomorrow being just like today, and then we will cool down just a bit by Thursday and Friday...back down closer to 90 rather than 100 degrees. In the transition we may get a little lightning and thunder Tuesday night and Wednesday, along with a few splots, splats, spits and sprinkles of rain.
Due to the heat of today my posse and I are going to be hitting the tennis court a bit earlier this morning, at 8 rather than 9:30am. That is probably a good things...at least in terms of the short-term health of the group, and for me due to the fact that I have a couple of basketball games to officiate this afternoon. Gonzaga University is holding another high school boys basketball camp and tournament through Wednesday, so I will have a few games each day...not as many as the marathon of the tournament a month ago though. That is definitely a plus since it is going to be "stinkin" hot in that gym this afternoon.
