Really, Really Hot

It's been really, really hot here.. up to 41 degrees Celcius, which is about 106 degrees F.

I've seens a couple of traffic islands where the concrete slabs have been pushed up by heat expansion. Check this out..

When I first saw this one the apex was 6 to 8 inches above where it should be. I took this photo about a week later; the white grinding traces in this photo is where the city has ground down the ends of the slab to stop it from standing up, which is why it's not as high here as I remembered it.

These next two pics are another one I happened to drive past with my camera.


Amazing huh.
