Wow. You're right, that is too hot to swim, especially when the water is so warm that even that doesn't feel refreshing. We had a similar day here. Really humid here also and 98 degrees on my deck, but you got me beat. Our heat index was "only" 109. My pool isn't anywhere near as warm as yours, though. It was around 86-87 yesterday which in my book is perfect but one of the hoses going to my solar panel sprung a pretty good leak and I lost about 4 inches of water before we noticed it. So, after hubby fixed it, I had to put the hose in to refill and the water coming out of the hose was pretty chilly. Not sure what my water temp is now. Didn't get to swim today. Too hot during the day and I can't take that kind of sun so I usually swim in the evenings. But, about 6 pm this evening, a pretty big thunderstorm came along and then it rained for a couple of hours. So no swimming tonight. But, on the bright side, I didn't have to water the flowers tonight! That is always a good thing!
EDIT -- after I posted, I was reading online local news. Not too far from where I live, a tree fell on a car and killed the driver. That was quite a storm we had!
