I'll probably be able to do the pool again today, although with overnight temps falling into the 50s, I'm guessing it might be the last day for this season. This time of year, when the skies are clear we often have a 30-40 degree difference between our daytime highs and overnight lows, due to our low humidity.

It is getting hot here too - over 34 degree C today in the shade - and it is nearly 10 p.m. and it is still pretty warm. We are supposed to be getting some good rains on Thursday. I really hope so. This heat is just cooking the garden. |

cathyml Posts: 23275 Joined: 25th Jan 2010 Location: South Africa | Posted at 20:55 on 11th October 2010 Up to mid 40's in the shade - Christmas time can be too hot to want to move!! |
Ruth Gregory Posts: 8072 Joined: 25th Jul 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 20:57 on 11th October 2010 I don't think I'd ever be able to get used to Christmas in summer, even though we have no white Christmases here. How close are you to the shore?

Ruth Gregory Posts: 8072 Joined: 25th Jul 2007 Location: USA | Posted at 21:37 on 11th October 2010 So no cooling sea breezes then. And yes, 100°F without humidity is much more pleasant than 85° and muggy.
