Feeling Hot Hot Hot

As our area of the country continues to bake in the relentless heat, our family continues to stay inside in the air conditioning. When we do venture outside, it is early morning or early evening and for brief periods of time. They are starting to talk water rationing and temperature records are being set frequently. This summer is tied with the hottest summer on record here in Oklahoma .
Some people have to be outside though and the extreme heat is starting to affect technology, specifically mobile phones. Our local weatherman posted that his iPhone actually gave him a warning that it was too hot, while other people he knows have killed theirs completely while sunbathing.

Word to the wise: keep your phone and other gadgets cool.
