Hell Week: Day One
Jul. 27th, 2009 06:23 pmThe Puget Sound area is in the first day of what I'm calling Hell Week. Seattle and most of Puget Sound is under a Heat Advisory until Thursday night, with temps in the mid to upper 90s for practically the entire week. UGH.
You know something's wrong in the world when we're hotter than the Grand Canyon in Arizona where the temp is 85.
We're not used to this kind of heat around here, especially not for a possibly record-breaking 5 days. On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday there's a strong chance we could get over 100 degrees. We also have air stagnation that's causing poor air quality and an extreme fire danger. What fun.
It's currently 94 degrees. I'm sitting in my darkened room with a fan blowing on me and the shades on my window closed. At least it keeps it tolerable. Of course, looking at my computer screen in the dark is not helping my head much. I feel a headache coming on. Oh joy.
