Dakota Slim Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Nugget and I spent some time at Rye Patch and the weather couldn't have been better. Saw some old friends and met some new ones. Didn't find any gold so we moved a bit and are now looking for a new patch and/or some old coins. Meanwhile, the weather has gotten unbelievably hot. It's 97 now and heading for a forecast 98 today. It was 38 degrees this morning!!! The average high for this day is 79 and the old record was 94. It's supposed to get even hotter. The forecast highs for Wed., Thurs. & Fri. are 98, 101 and 99. I dug out the swamp cooler for the occasion. It's amazing how well these things work with 8% humidity. About the time I shut down the swamp cooler it will be time to put on a jacket and get out with the detector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Slim Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Yeah Guido. I see it's still very hot down there. I'm headed that way and I hope it cools off down there before I get frozen-in up here. Right now it looks like Tonopah or Goldfield is the place to be.

LuckyLundy Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 It's been real bad, yesterday LA hit 113 and San Fran mid 90's. Cooler weather is slowly moving in, so stay cool for a few days!LuckyLundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
