Warm weather




We have a bit of a heat wave in the area with highs in the 90s and heat indices in the 110s this week. We did not see the funnel clouds near Washington, IL, but we had a colorful sunset last night. Today I drove to the University of Illinois with an undergraduate student to do some experiments - somewhat positive results were obtained with our polymer-embedded nanoparticles. The Smarties we left in the car got yucky in the heat and humidity. Our power has flickered out a few times at home today and in other placed in Peoria.
