Glad Emma is doing well!
It topped out here yesterday at 112. It's been quite a while since temps here have been so high.
It was 82 when I got up at 7:00 am, just now we are having thunder and lightning, but just a few drops, not even enough to wet the ground, of rain.
Summer thunder and lightning is extremely rare here, can't remember the last time it happened. The storm is coming in west to east - thus heading for the foothills and high Sierras. Lightning, with little to no rain, in the bone-dry mountains, is potentially very bad news indeed.
Hoping this doesn't start a whole new batch of wildfire.
