Us Texans call 91 a cool front. It has been averaging 102-105 for the past couple of weeks. So sorry, no sympathy from here. LOL

No frost on the windshield, no trips to the woodshed, summers in full bloom, I'll take it over cold weather anytime.
IMHO, the best thing abut it is that you don't have to deal with snow---shoveling or driving in it.
 
What kind of boat is that Tom? It looks like a Taylor boat, but i`m not sure.

It's a 1973 Taylor SS which I special ordered new, and have kept it in the garage (NOT a storage facility) since new.
When I put in my order and request for color, I wanted it red-white-blue. Oscar Taylor did not want to build a r-w-b boat because by the year 1976, people would be sick of anything r-w-b. I insisted and have NEVER regretted it!
Last year, I hoisted the boat off the trailer, took it outside in the grass, TOTALLY disassembled the trailer, power washed it and used 8 spray cans of gloss white Rustoleum on it.

Just built 420SB about 20yrs ago.
 
I thought we had it bad, I got this off of a global temperature map. 124 deg Farenheit in Iraq.

I remember those days....still, no humidity like Florida and it got cold as all get out in off months at night. Afghanistan was the same....

Ironically, pretty sunsets though, but I'll go to AZ next time I need that view.
 
We've had trouble breaking mid 60's so far this year, and only on rare occasion a few 70's temps. Then suddenly this weekend it hit low 90's Sat. and supposed to hit 100 today.
We often have these sudden temp jumps when we change from wet cold springs to summer. But this year was the worst with 3 record setting months of rainfall that averaged around 10" per month or more!
