I remember that. Everytime I went to work I was hoping my apartment would still be there and preferably not on fire. It was a concrete block duplex but something would have still burned.

Here in south central NC it's been so hot for so many days/weeks the trees have been stressed to the limit and some are already trying to change color. The pine trees are also shedding needles and cones which never happens this time of year. Usually both occur in October. 

We get a good heavy rain about once or twice a week but the heat is more like what Duval county gets and it's been windy. It started in the spring which is normal but never let up. Really strange.
