If it's hot enough to fry eggs, just shut it down.
The mercury reached 103 degrees today, the hottest temperature ever recorded in Seattle. Yes, lots of places get a lot hotter, a lot more often, but it's not supposed to happen here. It makes for a different walking experience through the city of hot pavements. You learn to plan your route along the shady side of the street as much as possible, except where the sidewalks are inconveniently closed, of course. The neighborhood coffee house advises iced drinks and offers water, otter pops, images of ice and meditation mantras such as "think cold".
I wonder how many people are missing that big December snowstorm right now.
