Heat Wave

It was unusually warm this week. Strong winds from the south brought up hot air from Africa. It was stifling hot all week long and hot at night too. Everyone was really tired because we weren’t used to the heat yet. The temperature hit 42 one day (108 Fahrenheit) and 38 in the shade (100). One professor took us to his office in the University so that we could take the final exam in a conference room with the air conditioning turned way up. The marble floor felt like ice, it was the only relief.
