Hot Summer?

Lol I was going to start a similar thread when I saw the forecast next weekend.
I was hoping to avoid searing heat until July. No such luck.
The heat index looks to near 100 on Saturday. Make sure your AC is working!
June 1, 2021 at 2:34 pm #2040156Thankfully my wife’s relative planned an outdoor wedding for this Saturday during early summer to “avoid the heat.”
I’ve tried convincing my wife to have us opt out and that I’d pay for the plates of food we missed and add to the gift. Instead, we could park the tritoon on an island for the day with a chair in the water.
So far, she’s not buying it. I’m rooting for 110 degrees now so I can play the “I told you so” card if she doesn’t change her mind.

Frydog62 what Tourney?We have a club tournament starting Saturday for Brainerd Bass Club, going to be fun lol.
Actually I’m in a charity tournament – Minnesota Fishing Challenge on Gull…
Ah dang it, I forgot about that one.
June 2, 2021 at 9:00 am #2040271Fish morning and evenings, water play during the day.
Hot summer days are the 💣💣💣
June 2, 2021 at 9:16 am #2040273My plan is to fish the morning, work a half day from “the office” then fish 6-dark…then replace the work with playing with the kids, pulling tubes and skiers and all that on the weekends. Bring on the nice weather.

I thought you love the searing heat????? I’ll be in my bunker this weekend hiding. got at least 16-20 hours fishing last weekend fighting the boat traffic so I’m good.
June 2, 2021 at 11:02 am #2040322I’ll be on the water. Definitely bringing the tube up and planning to swim midday

Lol this is generally what I do too when we get these awful jungle-like days of humidity. I hide in my air conditioned basement and only venture out in the morning.
Last season I tried some night time fishing but didn’t do it until July. It was very effective. Seems a little early but it may be worth trying again soon now.
June 2, 2021 at 12:45 pm #2040365Going as early as I can get up done by 11am then maybe after 6 pm for a couple hours. Got heat stroke years ago never the same again. I need to relax some and get some other stuff done anyway.
June 2, 2021 at 3:08 pm #2040395Love MN, but the weather is an absolute joke.
90 degrees the week before last.
30 degrees last weekend and lost all our tomatos, peppers, pumpkins and potatos.
100 degrees this weekend and will probably lose some of our meat chickens that are one week away from processing. We specifically got our meat birds a month earlier than last year to avoid the July heat.
Rain is almost non existent so will be watering the many gardens and fields we have constantly over the next few weeks. Lawn (no sprinkler system) will go dormant.
Not sure how farmers do it to be honest…

Crop insurance bails them out a lot. Right now the price of corn and soybeans is sky high so as long as we get at least some rain every once in a while they will gather quite a profit when harvest rolls around.
I get what you are saying though. At the mercy of Mother Nature.
June 2, 2021 at 6:51 pm #2040454I won’t complain because I know it’s MN and the hot weather won’t last forever. Unlike places in the south where it’s 90 and humid from May to Oct.
Also, the beer NEVER tastes better than on these hot days. Iced down beer in a huge cooler is just the best.

Where do you make this stuff up?
June 3, 2021 at 7:32 am #2040503Where do you make this stuff up?
Its not made up. Its true. I have relatives that collect it every season.

No shortage of shady folks i guess.

We are in agreement on this one. I don’t approve of it and have made my opinion known to them on the subject too.
June 3, 2021 at 9:25 am #2040523You can’t choose your family
June 3, 2021 at 9:36 am #2040526We already have Deer Flies. Typically don’t see them until the end of June or July
June 3, 2021 at 9:49 am #2040528Well, per my topic on dirt, I will be out in it this weekend shoveling to get my driveway to done. Going to try and get dirt on Friday afternoon so I can get up early and hopefully get a lot done before it gets too hot. A beer out of the garage fridge will taste darn good when it’s done. If it gets unbearable I will go stock up on some things for an upcoming fishing trip.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Absolutely true.
June 4, 2021 at 8:13 am #2040701Central MN forecast for the next 12 days, yes the next 12 days in a row calls for temps into the 90s (a few of those days high 80s).
Has this even happened in July/August before?
Like I said, MN weather is a f’cking joke. Anyone that says we have the best weather is lying to you.
(ranting…)
June 4, 2021 at 8:43 am #2040709Looks like beach season on the Croix is starting early this year. Spotted the 1st bikini of the year almost a month ago. For me the cold of the winter goes hand in hand with hot summer days. Just wouldn’t be right without the other.
And there have been hot summer days forever. I remember a summer in the late 80s where it reached over 100 often. My Grandparents talked about back in the 30s that city parks where filled at night with people sleeping in them trying to escape the heat.
June 4, 2021 at 8:46 am #2040710Oh you guys will survive, I get the pleasure of working out side all day. I dont see the out door workers getting away with hiding in the ac and complaining on how hot it is.
I hate the heat more and more as I get older. But I love me some bikini weatherJune 4, 2021 at 9:02 am #2040711Anyone that says we have the best weather is lying to you.
Who the hell has ever said that before?
