    Default Another for you, Kath, is it hot yet where you are?

    @Kathianne

    I'm confident that much of Arizona gets hot in the summer months. But some areas hit the death zone! Are you in the list of these cities? Some serious heat coming!!

    We're 99+ for at least a week. It isn't the workout in the heat that isn't so hard once you get going. It's sitting here in the AC thinking about going out in the heat to work out

    It's just hot, even in the shade. Melting. Anything over 105 is just nuts.

    Every winter I tell the winter complainers on TV to move South or West and leave more room for me to enjoy Fall and Winter, lol. I don’t even want to be buried in the desert!
