its 97* in Midland Texas right now. i had to go check on my crew i have working in Pecos, Tx yesterday. Pecos is 100 miles west. i took the Electraglide since i dont get to ride as much as i would like. it was 106* there. Pecos is always hotter than any place in Texas for some reason. it was all good though i was riding. :woohoo:

There are probably hotter and more humid places but It's been in the upper nineties most every day with higher humidity than I'd like. Here I am in San Antonio, TX.

Not sure on the current temp but I know it's dropped once it started getting dark. It was up past 100 degrees earlier today, talk about some hot weather, you walk out the door and are immediately slapped in the face with the heat :D. But I don't mind the heat the heat means I get to go to the beach and the beach is good for 2 things fishing and babes 8) so I can't complain :lol:.

Talked to my mom tonight and she watched the local news and they said 102* for the high today in willaimsburg, I know it was hot because i drove down the interstate today around 2pm with the windows down and could feel myself sweating but it was so hot that it would dry as soon as it come out. The air was so thick you could see the humidity in the air. Would have been a good day to be at the beach, but as hot as it was i would have looked like a prune when it was time to leave from staying in the water so long.

I need to check the weather again! We are headed into Williamsburg over the weekend for Busch Gardens and Water-country USA! Maybe if we've got a chance we could meet up and you could introduce me to the bump!

one thing i found funny about the weather this last 6 months or so. it gave us a big snow storm in december. larger than we have had in years. and it stayed pretty cold too. until late in feburary. then in march april and may as well as soem of june. it was cool and no rain. until june then it hasd rained almost every other day or so in early june. as soon as the rain stopped. it became really hto all of the sudden the very next day. so we went from cool and mild. to hot automatically. it is very different weather than we have ever had before that i can remember around here.

i am not tryign to lead off the subject. but could this slow change in the weather pattern signal a change that could be about to come that some are guessing at in 2012? yet we are slowly not noticing it now? but we will finally notice it in december 2012? it was just a thought. and that is not what i see happening on that date myself. so this is just a theory.
