Technically there is no heatwave coming. Just warm weather. I’m quite glad I’ve converted most of all the hard surfaces around my house into garden and vegetation. Makes a huge difference from last year. Now I’d only they planted more vegetation in the streets….

Various media are predicting a few days of high temperatures if not a full scale heat wave, Jonathan, and there’s a warning on the government weather page.

Yes, technically a heat wave is well defined. But things can be bad before they get really bad. Cities hsve gotten flwck for not acting sooner, sonthere may be a shift. I can live some days if hot weather, but I tend to seek out places with air conditioning on the really hot days. IfbI was normally less mobile, I’d appreciate closer “cooling stations” and keeping pools open longer during hot weather just makes sense.
Here at rehab next to MLK Park, we are surrounded by a lot of greenery, so tye heat seems distant. Thiugh I was out on an appointment in Wednesday, and the humidjty hit me. The staff did make sure we got ice water yesterday, and there are posters up about surviving the heat, not a lot if “young” peoole here.
Soon the hot will be gone, and we will wish it was here ratyer than the cold.
