I think that a summer trip to Mexico would be a good change of pace from the oppressive weather in Iowa. Rains about every day and over 100 degrees (f). Waiting for the palm trees to bloom.
Our heat has been pretty bad since mid-july. Heat index's around 110 all the time. We have had a wonderful break though the past couple days. Just finished running 5 miles this morning at 62 degrees!!!! Sure beats trying to run at 81 degrees at 5am!
Definitely better in Oklahoma the last two days. 60's in the morning and 70's in the afternoon although it's headed back to the 90's. But far better than the 107 on Sunday and 104 on Monday.
This is the time of the year that most of the country envies our Buffalo weather. Currently (3 PM) it's 68 and sunny. Yeah, I know, don't talk to me in January! At least our summers are really nice.
Yeah, I was in Buffalo around this time last year and it was awesome. But it feels great here in the midwest right now...probably not for long though.
