| Heat Wave coming to Calif | |
| 2023-06-26 | |
| Vicious heat wave now in Texas but this week, California will get in on the action. Below is from the NWS Sacramento [Weather.gov] An upper ridge will move over California starting early on Thursday, and become the predominant pattern late that night/early Friday morning, bringing in warm and dry air. This will cause higher temperatures across the region, along with widespread Moderate Heat Risk during the extended forecast period. Temperatures will likely reach 100 degrees over the weekend in many places within the Sacramento Valley. Additionally, some areas in the northern Sacramento Valley may actually pass the century mark. Luckily for CA, there will be an above average amount of hydropower from the winter precip and wind will not go stagnant either so they will likely survive this one.

| #6 Good manners are never 'too much'. I had some people clearing built up growth in the yard so I set out a water cooler full of ice cubes and some glasses. Seemed only 'right' and they sure appreciated under the summer sun. |

| #3 LA was built in a f'ing desert. There is a reason it was a desert before Europeans ever set foot in the place. |

| #2 So the season changes, they get the usual heat waves that I experienced even in the early 1970's living in Fresno. But now it is : Climate Ice-Age, Ozone depletion, Warming, Drought, Change, or whatever? I guess as long as there is $$$$$$ and clickbait for the Media, the Speaking Heads and the Profiteers. There will be always be something that going to happen in the next 5, 10, 20 years. So they have a Meal Ticket. |
