This is a picture of the thermometer on our screened in porch. It was taken yesterday, July 15, 2006 at around 4:30PM. Around 3PM, it was 93 at the airport, which is the somewhat official temperature of Duluth. At that same time, it was 102 in downtown Duluth.This demonstrates the differences in temperature throughout Duluth. Sometimes it's warmer by the lake, sometimes cooler. Earlier this week, when it was around 90 at our place, it was 74 by the lake (we went down and had a lovely walk).
Our house stays relatively cool because we are surrounded by many trees. The inside temp has not gotten above 78 since the heatwave started. And down in the basement it's 70. We use fans, on these hot days, to move the cool basement air upstairs.
So yes, for those non-believers, it does get hot in Duluth sometimes.
Stay cool!

Is this global warming? It is blazing hot in Redondo Beach, too. Sunday is the first day that I would say we are over the top because of humidity. Around 85 and the house is 80.
