Murica's team. They had four years to make things great and you still wear red hats to show your support.Aaron Rudnicki said:

Nothing better than central time.

For sports, absolutely.
Don't like that "prime time" starts at 7pm and goes until 10pm there. Of course, it isn't like I watch shows on live TV any more though.

Disagree.
But it is largely irrelevant now. I never plan around watching something live any more, except for sports.

While I agree its largely irrelevant now, why would anyone want to stay up until 11:00 to watch prime time shows?

We've gone 45 days without measurable rainfall at Sea-Tac Airport.
This probably doesn't sound like much to people who live in Arizona or inland California, but around here it is fairly unusual.

really? when I lived out there in 2012, they went like 60 days with no rain. seems like it rarely rains in July and August there.

2012 was the all time record.
July and August are typically quite dry, but there is usually at least a little.

Not sure what was more surprising today, that Ara Parseghian was still alive or that he was still younger than Tanner.

Portland is the new Bakersfield. What's left of my grass crunches like brittle sticks when you walk on it. We are throwing in the towel and going to the coast today through Friday. I'm sure we're the only ones in Portland with that idea. Should be a fun drive.
yeah, was pretty hot when I was out there. also strange that the hottest time of day always seemed to be around 5pm.

10am football >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> noon or later football.In the abstract, 10 AM football sounds pretty good, but my only practical experience with it is in Las Vegas, where is a real PITA.

You mean if you're in LV or on the coast?
Just call a friend back east where it's 3 hours later and have him make your bets for you. WA LA.

on the interwebs. I'd rather not have to wake up at some ungodly hour. sure, it's easy to roll out of bed and start watching football at 10am, but it leaves a lot less time for pre-game activities (gambling, drinking, etc.)

Gambling? I'm shocked and/or appalled.

Yeah, 5pm is brutal here. The sun just seems to linger in one spot blazing hell through whatever is in its wake at that time. Fortunately for us, that wake includes the front of our house which used to have a couple of nice trees in the yard that helped shade the sun for the old lady who lived there, but just had to go according to the new lady who now lives there.

The Oregon coast will be 89 today. Really beating that heat.

Getting up before 10am? What a chore!

According to the hourly forecast, it will apex at 106 here at 5pm. Also 4pm. Then it cools down to 101 by 7.
The hottest time of day most places in the summer is between 3pm and 4:30 pm.
that's news to me.

Tom Skilling says it's 2-5pm.

it just seemed in Portland like it got hottest around 4-7pm or so, which I thought was slightly unusual.

The sun's intensity peaks at noon, but the warming of the Earth's surface continues until the amount of energy being radiated out exceeds the amount coming in, which typically occurs in the late afternoon.

At least if not a little later.

Portland is in a valley and when it gets hot like it is right now, 5pm is unbearable. It will be in the high 90s the next few weeks too, so I imagine the wildfires will be brutal.

One of my sources was the Old Farmer's Almanac. Were you involved in launching that publication?
