It’s rare that Southern California, at least the Los Angeles / Orange County gets this hot. We’re having quite a heat spike this weekend. Way too hot for me to ride for fun or to do errands around town even with mesh jacket and pants.
I’ve been in the house all day, praying that we don’t have rolling blackouts like we did a few weeks ago when it was hot. Everyone running their AC at the same time overloads our fragile infrastructure. Had the power shut off for an hour a few weeks ago and when I got home the thermostat read 87.
Doesn’t affect my commute much. It’s 18 minutes door to door with few stops. I can survive that long. When we have this kind of heat, we lose the on-shore breeze and get hot air moving in from the desert.
