Phoenix history is about to be made. ...Extreme Heat Warnings in effect Thu-Sun🌡️

Sure am glad I am not in AZ

Phoenix history is about to be made.

A high of 101° today would be the earliest 100-degree day ever recorded and the hottest temperature ever recorded in March.

Then 105° Thursday.

106° Friday.

Heat we don't see until late May.

Yeah, that’s pretty much how I felt about
the non-Arizona part of the country this past miserable winter, while we in Arizona basked in 75 degree sunshine.

But knowing that we’re all suffering from the effects of climate change, I managed to keep my mouth shut.
