Bitch about the heat, episode 47

Generally, it’s a few degrees warmer in traffic.  Cars are hot.  Asphalt is hot.  Depending on the sensor location, a vehicle thermometer might read 3-5° high on a hot day, particularly at idle.

Sitting at Madison Boulevard and Sullivan St. on the way home today, I glanced up and thought of Saintseester’s photo, and then I thought “hey, I can snap that with my phone”:

It read 111° right after this, but we were moving by then.

Even with a reasonable corrective traffic factor applied, that’s pretty damned hot.

    In the words of Jeff Dunham’s puppet, Walter, “yeah, well, so’s a frickin’ bonfire, but you don’t see me stickin’ my ass in one, now, do ya?”

    It’s cooled off considerably here – I think our max temp today was 86 degrees, and the forecast calls for thunderstorms tonight which will leave us with 79 degrees tomorrow.
