Heat Advisories Continue...

Mornin'! It's 86° this morning. Just watered the gardens and began working up the sweat and need for water this next day of hazardous weather. Whew...so many songs are going through my head. Right now it's Billy Idol's "Hot in the City", but Robert Palmer's "Some like it Hot" and Sly and the Family Stone's "Hot fun in the Summer Time" is floating around in there too. Sorry...getting carried away with all my "hot" tunes. Going up to the mid-upper 90's today. Heat indexes: 106°. I'm just saying. The damn West winds are wafting over us at 5mph and will pick up a bit and continue today until later this afternoon when they'll shift from the South bringing much needed relief from the cool ocean air and the greenhead biting flies. Sounds like a repeat of yesterday more or less except today there's a 30% chance of a thunderstorm this afternoon. High tide:3:07p.m.; Low tide:8:26a.m.; Ocean temp: 72°; Sunset: 8:18p.m. You know the drill...hydrate; preparing properly if hitting the beach (read yesterday's blog) and rest assured this Heat Wave is almost behind us. Tomorrow...the high is looking like mid-80's. One can only hope! Don't litter the island, pick up your trash!
