"Boogie Nights" is a 1977 #single by international #funk-#disco group #Heatwave. It was written by keyboardist #RodTemperton and was included on Heatwave's debut album, #TooHotToHandle.

Late #Spring in #Pakistan, & the government is already considering shutting schools for an early summer break due to the #heatwave.

Astonishing: the Gov is admitting temperature surges of 4-7C (7-13F) above the current heatwave are to occur in the coming few days.

This is what I kept warning! An avg rise of 1.5C means swings of 5-10C making that happen, and in heatwaves or cold snaps thats deadly!

This #socal #heatwave that is coming by Friday is way too early and as such will be really hard on some plants. Succulents will be fine, but any woody plant with new growth will lose a lot of water to transpiration. Heatwaves aren’t supposed to come until the new growth has barked over to keep water in.

Give thes plants and trees a deep watering NLT Wednesday or Thursday. Like 5 gal each. Enough to sink deep and remain available as surface moisture evaporates. Mulch will help too. When the leaves start wilting it’s already too late. But if they’ve been prewatered they’ll recover.
