Another hot one this noon-time Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — reportedly, we’re back to triple-digits this afternoon on our way to another week of the blasting heat.

Cooler in temperature, but still hotter than shit this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re under triple-digits right now (96 degrees) due to the overcast, but expect to return to that 100-plus level tomorrow.

Once again — like a broken record it seems — it’s hotter-than-shit this noon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley. And once again, too, we join a huge chunk of the rest of humanity.

Hot and getting hotter this near-about-noon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley — triple-digit temperatures for this weekend and on into next week, too.
