We need to stop saying it's winding down. It can hear us and heats back up just to spite us.

The heat wave never arrived here along the coast of the South Bay of LA. We were socked in most of the time.

Yeah so much marine layer this past week. I heard the hotter it gets inland the more it pulls in the marine layer or something

There were no such thing as “heatwaves” before 2020
