Air temperature in the shade at my house was 101.1F this afternoon.  :P
Also, I was on the roof of a shopping mall this afternoon where it felt kinda warm.  Whipped out my IR thermometer and measured the temperature of the white gravel on the roof at 145F. :shock:  Air temperature was about 116 up there.

I've been meaning to, but I never seem to get northeast enough for one to make it to your neck of the woods.   Damn, now I missed my chance since it's raining each evening.   :evil:

Oh, I thought it was you that did that shopping center early Sunday morning.  :mrgreen:

No,

We prefer car-b-que's and truck-b-que's in the metro area.  Safer, higher visibility, and more flamboyant.  8)  Saw two on I-285 in last few weeks. :wink:  However, the last really rightous one was the gasoline semi that rolled under an I-285 overpass and caught fire a few years ago.  :roll:

I remember that one.  The heat was so intense, it killed the overpass.  The concrete spalled and broke off of it, weakened exposed steel...

DOT had to close and condemn it, tear it down, and rebuild it.

Pretty expensive for a vehicle fire.
