Is it me or does it feel like we're heading into Fall already? It has been waaaaay too nice out for August. It was like August happened in July.
On top of that, I was looking outside this morning and all the vegetation in my neighborhood is turning fall colors already. Leaves are littering the yards and streets, and the grass isn't gorwing as fast.
I can't remember an August in Virginia Beach that didn't have a week or two of over 100 degree nastiness. I can't believe I'm thinking August has been the nicest weather month of the year so far.

I live in a Condo Association neighborhood, and there are sprinklers that come on religiously. The sprinklers soak the crap out of everything - including a freshly washed car on Saturday 
I definitely buy the "no-water" theory Skip (except for my hood), but where are the hot and humid August days?

Evan, the tank I was referring to is the Chrysler 300 they gave me to drive while my car is in the shop. It is huge.
it. It's between that (Touring edition) or the Honda Ridgeline for me right now. I just don't think I can beat the Ridgeline price, compared to the price of the C 300.

I have seen many trees in our neighborhood dropping leaves, the damn tree looks dead. The two weeks of heat and no rain I assume.
Not only are we having a fairly dry summer, last winter was very dry as well. Cold and dry = winter drought.
