It's here, too

The heat wave that's stuck in the West because of this high pressure ridge is here, too. It's a bit odd to have it be near-record temps at the end of September for an extended period. Today and tomorrow are both supposed to be about 90. Definitely NOT disconnecting the swamp cooler yet!

The upside of all this for us is that we're going to have spectacularly good weather for the first weekend of the balloon fiesta. The past few years, we've had high winds or rains that keep any balloons from going up. I just hope the other effect of having this warm weather doesn't happen; thermal inversion causing smog build-up. Smog is rare here nowadays.

Full house for the flyin coming up. Unfortunately, the headline caller has been reticent about replying to me/us, so we're not sure that caller is even coming. Theoretically, we're hosting him.
