Ha! Wonderful advice! đđ€Ł
it's hysterical how much love san diego gets here in southern az.
i was born and raised not too far from the beaches in orange county, and absolutely no one talks about SD there.
I was riding the Loop on memorial day weekend. I was stopping by every gas station/convenience store every chance I could get to get some Gatorade and water. I started my ride about 8 am but by the time noon came around, there was no one on the trails because the temp hit 104. I finished my ride, went back to the hotel, took a cold shower and ate my dinner. I had the best sleep ever that night.
Glad you enjoyed your ride! Our summers can definitely get pretty intense! đ
Why Gatorade ?
I have been here for three years now and honestly if I didnt have a pool I could not be here in the summer.
I hear ya! đâïž
When we moved here from the Northwest 6 years ago, we would not look at houses without pools! We couldnât live here without one either. We love swimming at night in the dark under the STARS! We can actually see stars.đDonât miss the Northwest!âïžđ§
Itâs fun to swim in the summertime after dark :)

Good God. Best comment ever, and I am going through a tough time. I swear this was for me to see. Godspeed my friend.
@@johnbob4545 your welcome
Thanks so much for the view and comment! Really appreciate these words; they ring so true! â€ïž
Would love to learn more about how people in Tucson manage their dogs in the heat and with the wild critters that are there.
GREAT question! A lot of animals (dogs/cats) are indoors a lot in the summer, and doggie doors are definitely popular, and itâs important to have a lot of shade in the yards. Itâs also important to have a big wall around your property preferably brick to keep the critters out and keep them away from pets. I often see dogs wearing little âbootiesâ on their feet during the summer months. There are also snake safety classes that are offered here for dogs (and they are quite effective!)
@@TucsonArizona interesting comment about the wall. I see many homes with cinderblock walls, but looking out of windows at a cinderblock wall would not be very nice. How low/tall should a solid wall be to keep out "critters"? I'm assuming rattlesnakes.
I see walls, fences, and gates of all shapes and sizes around here, but in my opinion the best thing to keep out critters is brick wall, and it will keep out coyotes, Javelinaâs, and most snakes, although if itâs low enough the bobcats can still get in depending on where you live. The wall around my house is at least 5 feet tall and bobcats still get in from time to time⊠We also get snakes but Iâve never seen a rattlesnake in my backyard thank goodness⊠nothing stops the pack rats đ«
@@peldridge2627 if you have a dog, your best bet is to not allow it outside unsupervised.
@@toddinthemiddle good advice.
You are so helpful!
Thanks so much! Glad you like the video! đâïž
Great video! Thank you â€
Thanks so much for the view and comment!
Hello thank u for sharing a tips
Thanks for checking out the video! Glad you enjoyed! Really appreciate the comment! đ
On hot summer days I hang a wet banana upwind from me and sit about a foot away from it. Works like a swamp cooler.
Because of the sun, I always wear a wide brimmed straw hat in the summer.
The fashion today for cowboy hats is to turn up the brim on the sides, but I keep mine flat. Not only does it do better at protecting my ears and neck from the sun, it is also, I think, a more traditional look.
Great tip! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you
My pleasure! Thanks for watching! đ„°
I grew up in El Paso and a swamp cooler is fine if the air is moving. We did have a pool though. I'm sure AC is better but we just didn't have it back then. The cars had vent windows to push a breeze into the car which worked well if the car was moving
I agree, I really like swamp coolers because they are so much less expensive to run than air conditioning units. The only time they donât work great is when itâs humid. And that doesnât happen often in Tucson, except for during our monsoon seasons. Otherwise theyâre awesome.
Make plans to do any yard work from about am to 10am to avoid the heat, honestly if the work is quiet I would start earlier. I would never leave out my dogs all summer in the desert, that constant heat is wearing on over all health. Especially with small dogs, don't count on your walls to keep out coyotes, I've had friends lose small dogs to predators who easily jumped the six foot wall, and one neighbor saw a coyote balancing itself on a metal fence with ease. Shocking but true! And coyotes are mainly out at night, but I have also seen them casually trotting down my street at one pm in the afternoon. For pack rats - if you had a car or RV in storage in your yard--in RV parks here we line solar string lights around the bottom of the RV outside-supposedly the rats wont cross the strip of light. Also my RV dealer suggested I get plastic containers poked with holes and shred Irish Spring soap and place the containers in high risk areas such as the sewer and electric inlet areas. If your car is safe in a garage you can open the engine hood, they look for concealed spaces to nest, and will not be attracted to the engine area if open.
All good advice! Thank you! đ
Thank you very much Misses Kimberly Mihalka I can see that you are a very good Real estate agent and I like all your videos.đ
Iâm glad you find them helpful! I have many more to come! â€ïž
@@TucsonArizona Yes Kimberly Mihalka the real estate agent is very helpful and knowledgeable in her experience as a native of Tucson,Arizona.
Thank you! đ
We had the swamp cooler on top of the house. And yes ,our house was east, west facing . And a 40 ft ponderosa pine shaded the house during the later part of the day. Looked at this area yesterday on Google and was able to zoom in and, well there's a jack in the box and parking lot where we used to live. And a huge electronics store across the street!! Wow how things have changed!!! From Morris Park in the Ozarks, have a wonderful day!!!
Haha I used to have a swamp cooler too! Kind of an endangered species these day⊠đ
@@TucsonArizona that's probably a good thing! I remember once in a while they got to smelling like fish!âčïž
Oh man! I forgot the smell⊠đ
We are going to San Diego next week for a break.
Itâs a very popular vacation spot for Tucsonans! For sure!
Hey, let's take a few folks from there and dump them in Mobile. 105 heat index every day with that humidity. What's worse?
Good point; Iâm not a fan of humidity, just my personal preference. I like dry heat âïž Thanks for the view and comment!
Another wonderful informative video! Did you fare ok through the haboob?
Thanks Laura! Weâve definitely gotten some good rains in the last week! Loving it! đ„°
Halo my dear friend thank you for sharing
Thank you for the view and comment!
I had a commercial gutter truck. Ăn the job 4am in the air conditioning of the bar by noon.
Haha yeah my dad worked construction in Tucson his whole life. Same story⊠đđđ
There is a few stray kitties off Broadway and N Beverly at the At Home parking lot that need help if anyone is in the area. They are grey and white. They come out around dusk on the the side of At Home. Had to leave to help out my mom:( I could pay anyone that can prove they feed them
What trees are best for shade?
Hey there! A lot of people have mesquite and Pali Verde trees here because they grow so easily here, but eucalyptus trees are also great for shade! Donât forget about my favorite trees: any given citrus tree! Those can grow pretty big and be great for shade as well! âŠThanks for checking out the channel!
Do you have anything to do with rentals? I'm looking to lock a place down in the next few months. Any info helps! đ
Hey there! Unfortunately I donât do Tucson rentals. I recommend all people moving to Tucson who are looking to rent, visit apartments.com to search properties for rent. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about Tucson in general!
Can you go up in the mountains and xcountry Ski in the summertime?
I personally am not a skier, but the ski lift is open year-round to use as a fun ride in the off-season
Is there always this much lightning during the summers?
Sometimes! đŹ The good summer monsoons bring lots of rain, thunder, and lightning in Tucson
What is the normal temp in the mournings in the summer when u get up
For the next 10 days, the weather report shows that our lows will be between 67-71 degrees, which means that usually when we wake up thatâs what itâs going to be. But there have been some summers where we were having a heat wave where the lows were around 80 degrees, which was definitely not fun! đ© itâs usually not too bad to do outdoor things like walking or gardening first thing in the morning and in the evening, at dawn and dusk. In the heat of the summer I usually recommend people stay indoors from 10 AM to 5 PM or at least stay in the shade outside. Thereâs always a breeze in Tucson, and itâs rarely humid, so if youâre in the shade and there is a breeze, itâs usually not too bad. Thanks for the view and comment!
Answer we dont
I would be moving to Tucson with my pets, and among those is a horse. How do folks keep their horses comfortable in the heat?
I donât personally have horses, but we have a lot of indoor enclosures for horses during the summer months. I can try to look into that a little further, and get back to you. :)
@@TucsonArizona I'm glad to hear that indoors is an option in the heat! Thanks!
Hi Kimberly. I am from Jacksonville, Florida. I am about to move to Tucson to work at Raytheon. First few months, I will rent a small house. Then, we will buy a house for my family to move in. Can you recommend where I should rent and buy a house? Thank you.
Hi there, feel free to reach out to me directly, but I have a couple of different ideas of areas for you. It sort of depends on your lifestyle and the things you like to do and if you are looking for something more family friendly or a quieter area or more night life/activities, etc.
