Forecast: Hot

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

I don't know for certain that it's hot everywhere, but I'm thinking it is in most places.  We've not topped out at 100 degrees yet except in the Heat Index, but 90's is plenty hot.  A friend whose house is a short walk to the beach in San Clemente (California), says they've been in the 90's as well.  It didn't used to be hot on the coast.
So, what about New York City, on the block where Del Floria's welcomes the agents of the U.N.C.L.E.?  Just how hot is it, and how do Solo and  Kuryakin bear up under oppressive heat and humidity?
We're taking a bit of a break from Writer's & Reader's Choice, but since we're waiting for the next round of stories to post (Song Story, Once Upon A Time, Short Affair), I was thinking we might give a call out for stories where the guys have to battle the elements.  You can post all day, all weekend... have some fun.
This one of mine is an ode to the temperature and another sort of heat wave.  I hope you have a nice day, and a cold drink.
