Warm and damp at first light, the air near 68° and the sky clear. Cloud built through the morning and then tore off by noon. The afternoon was hot and bright, near 85° at its peak with a strong wind that dried the sweat as fast as it came. Cloud gathered again toward evening and a storm came with it, half an inch of rain in an hour or so. The air stayed warm and wet long past dark.
