> Unseasonable heat again today. Mid-90's. High humidity, to boot.

Makes for great melons and okra! Here in Texas on our farm we start at
7:00am till noon, take an hour off then work till 6:00pm or finish packing
for the next day delieveries. Drink lots of water. Stay away from air
conditioning. Next chance you get go someplace really hot. It gets dark
here 8:00-8:30 and its still hot.
If it gets below 65 we freeze.
