We had a dust storm come through about 2 hours ago, which quickly knocked
the temperature down to 109F. You probably don't get many dust storms up your
way.
My air conditioner (installed in 1992) struggles when the outside
temperature goes above 110F. This afternoon it cycled more on a time basis
rather than temperature, and the inside temperature got up to 89F. But it's a
dry heat.
