You musta been just East of Oakley. That's right about where you start seeing an occasional antelope. Lived in KS for a couple of years; strange weather there.
Call me crazy but, I'll take "10° Hotter With 50% Less Humidity, for $1000, Alex."

Did you keep up with the number of skunks you seen in Kansas.

Many years ago I spent a few days in Wichita Falls, TX doing tornado damage inspections. We were walking roofs during the summer. After the first day, if you had asked me "how hot was it today", being from NC, I would have guessed around 85F. I looked at the weather report, it was 104F. The humidity makes an enormous difference.

They actually tend to have their heat index be below the actual air temp value due to the dryness of the air ( DP value ) and its ability to cool you....so 103 out west often feels several degrees cooler....obviously we suffer from the exact opposite, a 88 air temp with a 79 DP has a heat index of 103....we can manage that by 10-11am many summer days around here.
Yup when ya hit them hot spots it seems the truck ac can't keep up....... I'll take 10 below and drifting snow any day

Yep...drawers can be wet by 9-9:30.
Kelty and I have a 2 day hunt test in Utah first - we sign in tomorrow afternoon and test Thursday and Friday - banquet on Saturday. A couple of breeders want to check Earl out for gigolo work, so we have that as well
Sunday we drive to Rawlins WY to chase sage grouse in the morning and I go after pronghorn after they are worn out (or to hot)
then on Friday (30 Sept) we slide over to Evanston to chase mule deer for a week. Then if needed we slide back to Rawlins area to continue pronghorn quest or go home

I was out in Eastern Oregon last year around early July. It was 100ish. We were hanging around waiting on fires. A lady working for me was telling me about "hot yoga ". I had to get her to explain what that was. Apparently it's when you do yoga in a sauna. She asked if I ever did that ( I guess having to explain it didn't answer her question). I said we have something similar to that in North Carolina, it's called going outside. I go sit on the steps of my front porch in the morning and pull my right leg up and put my boot on then I do it with my left leg. When I'm done I've usually worked up a good sweat.

Last summer in nebraska it was somewhere around 115 one afternoon and there i was in a shop welding
i think i drank a case of water that day

that would be AWESOME!
general season has been open since the 10th so I figure the crowds will have dissipated by the time I get there
