Whew....Dog Days of Summer Up Here In Idaho.....

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty Boise Idaho SP20114

We have been whining all spring about the cold weather....

Now it has really heated up....

The past few days summer has really hit and I think we have hit the Dog Days of Summer in IdahoMeka

Temps have been in the high 90's! It looks like for the next couple of days Nampa will be a bit cooler...but the heat will be back for the 4th of July.

Remember to "crack" your window a smidge to keep them from getting damaged from the heat!

Drink lots of water

Don't forget your furry four legged friends....

When it is this hot don't leave them in a parked car....

And keep plenty of fresh cool water down in a dish for them....

Consider using the grill so you don't have to heat up the grill

The microwave can come in handy on these warm days

Or make a cold supper....like a wonderful salad

All in all stay cool and remember ....

We were all wishing for this heat when we were freezing in the months prior!!!

Temps in Central Arizona are 112 +. This weekend my husband and I went to the mountains to enjoy the cool 90 degree weather. Everything is relative.

We cracked 90+ today in the Bitterroot Valley (in Montana, if anyone doesn't know). TOO hot--give me 75 any day, which is back where we are supposed to be for the rest of the week. You can keep the 90's over there in Idaho!!

All good tips for sure. How many days over 100 now? Worst drought since.., the 1800's? I don't know exactly but it is pretty bad.

Cathy...it is relative for sure....we will get our fair share of 100 degree days....but not 112 thank goodness!  LOL

Jeff....I could go with 75-80 every day and be happy as well!!!  

Cheryl....you guys have been hit hard!!!    I hope you get a break soon!

Scott...that is crazy weather for sure...and usually we dont' get a lot of precipitation...10-12 in per year and I think we have that already this year...

Tim...glad you got to enjoy the pool....my sis in law said she was weeding yesterday...then cooling off in the pool...then more weeding...LOL   at least she found a way to stay cool!

Deborah, being the "mommy" of several pets for many, many years - I have always preached about summer and winter care of pets, the do's and don'ts. I still do not understand why people leave a dog in their car on hot days. Not good.

Great reminder, Deborah.  Here in Arizona, I even watch their total outdoor time - I can't imagine wearing a fur coat in 110 degree temps, that's for sure.

Carla...I don't understand either....furbabies need to stay in the house in the summer!!!  

Juli....I can't either....and it is so cruel to our fur babies!

We saw a couple of days around 110, but this afternoon it's only mid 90's. That's going to make for a lively time for the dogs at the Bark Park tonight!
