High Temps in San Luis Obispo

the secret in San Luis ObispoWell, for those here in SLO town who get a little smug for having a year around temperature of between 60-80 degrees… every once in a while we get our comeupance.

I do remember one October 13th… possible a Friday, while laying out the sod on my new lawn the temperature reached the highest in the nation that day of 113! Whew! It seemed like so much more…. not Iraq hot… but hot!

In any event, folks in this part of the world are not used to this… and we tend to be underprepared.

For example, even the most environmentally inefficient home has never found the need for air conditioning… so, people start hanging out in the stores.

As for me, well… we’ll shut down the ol compters and fix something cold!

Hope your day is going well!
