Don’t you wish you were in Alabama?  Thank goodness for central air conditioning and a drive-in garage.  Even if we go out (rarely), we can still stay pretty cool.  We’re in Stage 3 water restrictions, which means no watering with sprinklers – hoses only, and only on our designated days (Tues, Friday, Saturday and Sunday) before 10am and after 6pm.  Whew!  Our beautiful zoygia grass in the front yard is brown and dying, and the only plants we’re trying to save in the yard are my hydrangeas… and it’s not working.  Here’s the weather statement from today…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
… Record high temperature set at Pinson… <\/strong>
A record high temperature of 107 degrees was set at Pinson
cooperative observer station today. This breaks the old record of
100 set on this date in 2000. The Pinson all time high for the month
of August was 105 degrees, also set in 2000, hence a new all time
record high as well.
Statement as of 4:22 PM CDT on August 15, 2007<\/em><\/p>\n

… Heat wave across central Alabama sets new record for consecutive
100 degree days… <\/strong>
The number of consecutive 100 degree days officially made history
today as all four climate stations once again reached 100 degrees.
Today marks the 9th day in a row that temperatures have reached 100
degrees at Birmingham… Tuscaloosa… and Anniston. This breaks the
previous record of eight days at each station. Montgomery broke its
record number of 100 degree days on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

With forecast temperatures at or above 100 degrees until Friday…
the record breaking heat wave will continue. A slight cool down is
expected this weekend and the streak may be broken.
