Slice: Are You Ready For Heat Wave?

On his Slice blog, Paul Turner posts: You may love hot weather if ... A) You are under the impression that the Spokane area has hard winters. B) You actually do jump in a lake. C) You have air-conditioning. D) You enjoy opportunities to walk around with not much on. E) You are solar powered. F) Lizards on rocks are your role models. G) You hear people say “Ya gotta love it” and assume that liking hot weather is obligatory here. H) You have never lived somewhere with truly punishing summers (that forever sapped your tolerance for hot weather). I) Other.

Question: Do you like temperatures in the 90s to beyond 100? What are you doing to prepare for heat wave this weekend and next week?
