People in large areas of the United States are toiling under record high heat and humidity. The oppressive conditions are affecting people from the northern Plains to Texas. They’re also making life uncomfortable from Nebraska to the Ohio Valley…and making their way eastward. Some relief is said to be on the way – after the weekend.
Wilt Thou?
Folks coast to coast
Find, in this heat,
It’s hard keeping dry,
Much less staying neat.
Those in the east
And those in the Plains
Are doing their best
And taking great pains
Searching for comfort
And ways to stay cool
By finding relief
This side of the pool.
Some look for spots
That are just a bit shady
Hoping temperatures fall
A bit closer to eighty.
