Whats the deal pouring concrete in this weather?? Just asking for things to go wrong, only to find when it comes to final inspection, they gonna make you rip it out and do it over...makes no sense.

ROOOSTER!! SHOOT SHOOT DEAN SHOOT.....

Actually it is almost easier when it is cold vs hot. We poured yesterday it went well on our end now the contractor may have some problems but once it leaves the truck and passes the test nmp.

The weather i was referring to was on the devils lake; even if Bis made those 90 degree days -- i seriously doubt the air temp on the big water was 90 - SD oahe - yup but not sak. It may feel like it but rarely does it actually hit it. Water temps dont warm up until the end of the July. I had bibs on until second week of July. 4th was hot and nice -- but the rest of the weekend was cold.

Prefishing for the DWC was the hottest and most humid weather I've had to endure while "having fun." It was over 90 both days and not a lick of wind.

I poured the 8 X 13 slab for my dog kennel about 12 yrs ago. That is my experience with concrete work, it was in the mid of summer, and my helper was a seasoned northern improvement helper, so he did all the intelligent part of the job, I wheel barrowed the crete back to the area while he did the finish work.

Nicest slab of concrete in my fine city I tell ya.
