California summers never get warm enough. Unless you're someplace like The Valley.


One of my SIL lives in Bel Air, up off of Mulholland Drive. We were there in one July and it was 75 up there. We drove down to Sherman Oaks and it was 88.

bwar stated his opinion of Californa summers and I stated mine.  That's... you know... how message board conversations work.

Low triples are workable.  Anything over 110 is pretty toasty.

"Mass casualty" tornado near Columbus, this sounds terrible.  Any of our folks near there?

Edit: Looks like BB posted while I was away from desk for a minute.  Reports are bad, houses on fire, lots of casualties.

Tornadoes are pretty rare this far south in Texas but I've been within a few miles a couple of times.  Close enough for the tornado sirens to go off and throw the kids in the bathtub of the most interior room we have...

We don't have a bathtub anymore. Got rid of it when we did the gutting of this place.

It's a fortress. Roof and windows rated to 200 MPH. All masonry walls. If something were to take this house down, all of Florida would be gone.

Yeah our master bathroom has one of those giant triangular Jacuzzi tubs, built into a corner with a tile ledge built up around it.  The bathroom is huge so there's plenty of space for it, but it's just kind of old and dated looking now.  And we never use it.

My plan is to remove it, and replace it with one of those modern versions of a standalone clawfoot tub.  It could be jetted, or not.  Probably will be, just for resale value.  That would free up some room either to expand some storage, or increase the size of the walk-in shower (which is already pretty big but why not go bigger, with multi shower heads on BOTH sides? :)
