SoCal is not known for humidity in summer. Yesterday morning was a big exception.

I played golf and we teed off at 8:00 AM with overcast skies and absolutely perfect temps (low 70s at tee-off IIRC). 

By the 3rd tee I was already drenched in sweat due to the humidity. 

It just got worse as we got to about the back nine and the sun started peeking through and the temps rose. 

It was a two bottles of water, two gatorades, and two beers sort of round lol. (And I played like trash too.)

Yeah, the monsoons bring in some humidity. 

Kind of weird to watch it rain sideways in a place that normally gets nothing more than a light drizzle.

We haven't hit 100 in two years.  But it is very humid, and the heat index has been over 110 the last couple of days.

Re: models*...



The mouseover text was "We trained it to produce data that looked convincing, and we have to admit the results look convincing!"

* Note of course is that this had nothing to do with climate or models--but I saw this and immediately thought of models and this thread...

Sweaty round here this weekend but hey I've doubled my round output from last year and carded an eagle for first time in about ten years. 

2 iron-4iron-gap wedge from about 15 yards.

Nice! I've never made an eagle... I've been close (inches) to a hole in one a few times, but never had one drop.

I have one, on a par 4.  Hit my tee shot left into the rough.  Blasted a 5 wood low and solid from about 220 out, bounced about 15 yards short of the green, bounced twice, and I lost sight of it.  I could tell it was pretty good, but I thought it was too hot and went past the green.

The girl I was dating at the time, was up higher on the right side of the fairway, and said "I think it went in, that's pretty cool."  It was her first time ever golfing.  Sigh...

We've got a bunch of smoke settling in the area. 

Simulating those California smoggy conditions.

The western United States is now in a megadrought, that is, a drought spanning decades. The drought impacting the Colorado River can be traced back to 2000.

Much of California’s wastewater is treated and dumped into the Pacific Ocean. But as western states continue to suffer through this megadrought, water managers and lawmakers say the wastewater must be recycled.

“Recycled water is going to be extremely important, not just in the west but likely throughout the entire nation,” said Bronson Mack with the Southern Nevada Water Authority.
