I've probably ruined it by mentioning it, but it looks like the 90-100 degree days are over, here in Oklahoma, which means it's MUCH easier to bear outside than it had been for many weeks. In fact, the last couple days it hasn't broken 90, and I'm not sure I remember the last time we had a sub-90 day. Yesterday, I neglected to mention at the time, was a nearly perfect day weather wise. The right balance of temperature, humidity, and wind made for a VERY comfortable time at softball practice. The forecast for the next week, depending on where you look, shows mid-80 highs, with the possible exception of tomorrow. We may reach 90 tomorrow. Even so, this is the best part of summer. Not quite so hot, but not yet fall, so still plenty of baseball to play, and still plenty of nice days before we have to start toting jackets around.
As good as it has been, I must disclaim that it still has nothing on Tucson in November. "TiN" holds my personal record for the most comfortable I've ever been outside. Crystal clear blue sky, mid-70s, gentle breeze, zero humidity. Better than Honolulu (IMHO), and I've lived in both places.
Update, 1 Sep
Okay, so I ruined it. The last two days have exceeded ninety. But tomorrow isn't supposed to exceed eighty, and they say (again) that today was the last day of noticeable hotness.
