[Grovenet] Phoenix heat

[Katie Allnutt]

Yep. One of the reasons we live in Oregon is because we 'used' to  
live in southern NM.  We never had 29 days of 110+ ,  I only remember  
4 in a row, with several on either side being 'only' above 100.
A person might be able to handle 90 degrees by 6 am except for the  
fact that it doesn't seem to get any cooler than 80 during the  
night.  No thanks.

When the wicked witch was going to put Hansel and Gretl in the oven  
I'm sure they were relieved that it was going to be a dry heat too.  : )
