Heat Advisory for the Wet Side

Who would have thought it get’s hot in summer time? Even ~10 years ago when I was living in Seattle, if it got into the 80’s it was described as warm. It snowed ~10” in town in Jan in 2011 I believe, it was chalked up to the fact it was winter. Not an agenda by the news channel to get ratings.

Hell, I sound like OMJ!!
Why did you drag me into this. :ROFLMAO:
 
I’m personally ready for fall already.

One nice day and you're ready for Fall...
Don't ya want your tomatoes to produce ?
Besides, Huskies will suck again, and there's no humpies, so what's the hurry ?
;)

I’ve hated hot weather and summer for a long time. Summer is kind of like Christmas…or Norte Dame.
I’d be happy with Spring, Fall and Winter.
Tomatoes be damned! ;)

Summer to you is Jerry Jones on Christmas with Notre Dame on TV eating triploid humpies on a float plane...
Got it.
I like a reasonable summer, just as a break between the cold rain and the not so cold rain.
Call me crazy...
:)
 
Ya just gotta find a place to chill, and stay out of the grass, man this stuff makes me miserable

I'm with you on this one. The best part of any summer day is about 8 in the morning. The minute the sun gets a little warm is when I look for some shade and a little breeze. Lately the summer heat is kicking my ass.
 
Reminds me of the old story about farming during the depression with mules in Arkansas : mule in the
left trace died of heat stroke while the mule in the right trace froze to death all in the same day
This reminded me a story that my dad told me when he first came to America. He came to Canada and then to the US. He was about 13 at that time. But he ended up in Wyoming on a cattle ranch. On day it got very hot and the cowboys took off their shirts to enjoy the sun. The next day it snowed and was cold. The cowboys that took off their shirts were all sporting a sunburn. The way Dad told it, it was funny.
 
I shaved my head and beard way down last night. I feel much better.
 
Remember sauna suits?
I called my old poured neoprene Simms that prior to breathable waders. Was not so bad in a tube on a cold lake . But beating brush in a remote area on a hot late morning was a method of dehydration and weight loss i would prefer not to ever repeat. A few death marches come to mind
 
I don't mind the hot weather so much now with a heat pump installed last year, but my favorite drainages and especially small tailwaters are still running real high for this time of year.
As an example, I know the MF doesn't normally get to this level until sometime in July but sheesh!
Like, MF Snoqualmie is pretty good at 500-800cfs.

Yea, our river still have more water, and currently just the little fish seem to be present. Luckily the local lake just reopened, so I'm thinking I'll go chill in the tube to beat the triple digits today.

Yeah, a good thing is the streamside brush in a couple of blueline ravines may not be encroaching the water making casting easier but I've already seen some erosion causing trees to fall over-into the streams like this that make up-downstream travel difficult. Oh well, provides cover for the homies.
