No rain after recording breaking heat

Well I thought it would be to good to be true and it was...no rain, at least where we live anyway. The news was stating that we might see some much needed rain after we went through thee days of record breaking heat, but this is Arizona, we don't get rain here :)

Three days of record breaking heat in Arizona

So it seems that Monday, the 20th of September, we had another record breaking day of heat. The old record was 105 degrees and now the new record is 107 degrees!

That makes three days in a row of recording breaking heat for all of us in Arizona. The news is reporting however that we may see somerain laterin the day and into the following day...we'll have to wait and see.

Another record breaking temp. on Sunday here in Arizona

Not long after I wrote about our record breaking heat spell on Saturday, I heard on the late night Sunday news hour that we broke another high temp record Sunday around the 2:30pm!

Sunday temp.'s reached the high mark of 111 degrees which beats the previous record of 107 degrees set back in 1962.

Today, Monday, might break yet another record according to the news. It seems like summer was almost gone, but had to peek it's head back in to say "don't get too comfortable yet". The good  news is that we might get some rain in mid week...I don't think we will, but it helps you make it through these hot days, lol.

FYI, it's about 6:30am right now and already 92 degrees :)

Record breaking heat this weekend

It is so amazing to me to think that even with record breaking heat this weekend our peppers and tomatoes are doing great. I guess it proves that deep and infrequent watering really works to keep your trees and plants healthy.

If I remember right, the high for Saturday was said to be 109 degrees, breaking the old record of 107 degrees set back in 1980.
