Today's Scorcher of a Situation: A Thermodynamic Tango
Did the mercury hit warp speed in Fresno today? According to weather reports, it seems like Old Sol cranked the heat lamp up to "high." We're talking a sizzling 102 degrees Fahrenheit (38.9 degrees Celsius). That's hotter than a dragon's breath after a three-alarm chili cook-off.
Tip: The middle often holds the main point.
In layman's terms, it was hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk (don't try this at home, folks). You could probably have used your car hood as a makeshift griddle for your lunch. Basically, if you stepped outside without sunscreen, you'd be sporting a lobster tan in about five minutes flat.
QuickTip: A quick skim can reveal the main idea fast.
But hey, at least it wasn't Death Valley hot, right? Baby steps, Fresno. Baby steps.
Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.

Fear not, fellow heat warriors! Here are some tips to conquer the Fresno inferno:
- Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Water is your best friend. Carry a gallon jug with you everywhere you go.
