Beautiful sunset in Cathedral City, temperature 108 degrees F |
This is bad. Really bad. It's so hot here you can't stand outside more than a few minutes.
It's not going away, either. Forecasts call for the same for more than a week forward.
High today: 113-118 degrees F
Low tonight: 92-94 degrees F
Billowing cumulus clouds against the mountain and some much-needed cleaner air have made it a beautiful day, despite the heat. But the humidity--upwards to 40 percent--has made the outside world something to be looked at from out a window.
The inside of homes are darkened by black-out shades designed to reflect the heat away from its surface. Barely a soul goes outside after 8 a.m. or before 7 p.m.
There is something special about this time of year, though. The sunsets each of these mid-August nights shimmer, pushing light wide beams of light skyward.
