    I’m just south of Atlanta waiting for nightfall to drive.

    Been a good 10 degrees hotter here than at my house in South Florida.

    that’s understandable. High temperatures like this can actually weaken the rails and possibly cause a derailment!

    G100 degrees is just 9 o clock in the morning for us in the southwest, we don't got the nasty humidity though....
