Catfishing is kinda a bore to me, but whateva drinking beer with friends works just as well.

I have never done any cat fishing. You should come down some time and we could go fishing. I could pick you up around the Hampton Roads Bridge Tunnel and we could head over to the CBBT and go flounder fishing.

Yeah, if i survive this fishing trip in the heat, i might be fished out for awhile. Bay fishing is good stuff, havent been in a couple years. Also fishing for some of these southern va redneck girls...south boston sounds like it could have potential

I offered. I think it would be fun to get several people who post here to get together and go fishing one day.

Child's play, I tell ya! Come out west to the desert. We saw a few 118 days already. today was 111 with 50% humidity. I would LOVE a crisp 105! :FIREdevil

Today in DC the moment you stepped outside it felt like getting slapped in the face with a scalding wet towel. Just brutal. And tomorrow and Saturday will be worse than today.

Well, the heat index in DC tomorrow is about 12 degrees higher than in the Phoenix area. Just saying. 117 is nothing to sneeze at. Plus we're higher than 50% humidity. Child's play it is not.

50% Humidity?? I would pray for that. You may laugh at us for bitching about the heat, but let a foot of snow fall in Phoenix and lets see how you deal with that. It's all relative.

At the same time, 111 is hot no matter how you cut it.

One of the commentaries I saw was that, although the heat was essentially the same throughout the affected area, the danger was highest in those areas where the temps were high above norms (think S. Dakota at 100 degrees for example).

No matter how you cut it. It's f'ing hot. Right now, it's 7:00 a.m., 90 degrees, with 65% humidity and a heat index of 101. It's going to be ugly today folks.
