Folks, just for information.
George West, Texas. 8/28/2011, 110* at 3;30pm,, 112* at 4:30 pm... Temp sensor is under eve of house in the shade. Got the electronic hand held unit that I keep in the truck to check tire temps and it was showing 113* on the outdoor sensor. Cement stepping stone in the sun..154*..Tires on truck, parked overnight, sunny side 194*,,, you could not keep you hand on the tire, it was way to hot, tire on shady side (been out of sun for 4 hours,, 124*. I worked up a sweat just walking out and checking the temps.
I have lived here for 47 years and have never seen it this hot and dry.
