I feel your pain Hogger.... of course you know that here we don't sweat, the fluids evaporate out of us so you never realize that you have lost them.... I always love when my friends and family back east say... "But it is a dry heat"... I tell them yep it is dry alright..... so dry it will crack a windsheild, if you set a wrench in the sun for more than 10 seconds when you pick it up it will blister your finger, the pool is no longer refreshing... it feels more like a bathtub, getting cold water out of a faucet even inside your home may take 5-10 minutes.... shall I go on.... haha... a dry heat my A$$....

A buddy of mine is from Scottsdale, he said the heat there is unbearable. Talked about people (diehards) riding to California from Arizona in that heat. That is just crazy. Stay cool brother...
 
Wow! I haven't seen that on a thermo since I left overseas! So....how many AC units do you have hooked up to your house?

And they say there's no downside to global warming!

It cracks me up when all my friends who moved the AZ for the "year round riding" have now found out from June to September you can't do anything but look for an air conditioned rock to crawl under.

But then again, they get to ride from October through May while we have to sit inside and pout.

What a crock of bull#### that is! Listening to Al Gore again?

One four ton unit bought new last year. Ten year warranty on the compressor and ten year warranty on parts and labor (optional).

Just turn it down and enjoy. Drink lemonade, barbecue and relax.

not really true. Yeah, it's way to warm for me but the nights are great.

This is just some high pressure hanging over the state at the moment. The weather will get a little more tolerable.
