Ames is surrounded by corn, yes? Being in Iowa, I think it'd have to be...
We ended up with a dew point of 79°F this afternoon. Fortunately we fell 4°F short of our predicted high of 94, so our heat index was a chilly 106°F :)
I have a feeling the dew point will hit 80 tomorrow they've revised our high from 95 down to 90... We'll see if that holds true, since the Lincoln office can't even forecast what happened 2 hours ago.
I did the last 2 summers with nothing more than a window A/C in my bedroom and ceiling fans. I'm so freakin' glad to have central air this summer.
August is the worst month, ever! I'll take hypothermia and frostbite over heat stroke any day.
