How hot is it? It is too darn hot. You may think it is hot where you live, but you’d be wrong. Today it was 97 °F here in Saint Louis, which is hot, but not the hottest high Fahrenheit temperature in the country. That honor belongs in the southern tip of Texas, with had 99 °F. That’s just how hot the mercury feels, but if you want to know how hot you’d feel, you need to consult the heat index. Today’s high heat index in Saint Louis was 110 °F. Nowhere else in the country came within five degrees of that number today. The heat index or what is sometimes referred to the misery index is based upon a formula that looks at both heat and humidity and we have plenty of both. If you add to the misery index the heat and humidity crazed humanity that now represents the denizens of Saint Louis, you get the Missouri index (pronounced like misery), which we are also in the lead for too. Global warming was always supposed to be a bad thing, but climate change offered some wiggle room. I mean, some climates would get worst and some should get better. There should be winners and losers. I was hoping that Saint Louis would win the lottery and maybe get San Diego’s climate. That would be nice, don’t you think?

It’s too darn hot
It’s too darn hot

I’d like to sup with my baby tonight
Refill the cup with my baby tonight
I’d like to sup with my baby tonight
Fill the cup with my baby tonight

But I ain’t up to my baby tonight
‘Cause it’s too darn hot
It’s too darn hot
It’s too darn hot
