I think it might be time for a new thermometer, or place it in a shadier location, sometimes mine reads a little higher than the news reports, but not 10 degrees different. Weather.com says it's 97 in Apple Valley, CA

My house is always warmer than the town for some reason. Can't get much shadier than my back porch. Ya its a mercury thermometer. Here is my other one about 15 ft from that one.

I have the same thermometer and 2 digital ones, with the sensors at the front and back of the house, all 3 in the shade. I live in Southern Riverside County, and the weatherman was off about 10 degrees here. They forecasted 90 and it's 98 last time I checked, which jives among the 3 house thermometers and from 2 of our cars. They all had the same reading within a degree either way. For my area this seems to be the normal - for the forecast to be way off. Sometimes they will predict rain for several days, only to have it finally drizzle a little one morning. Also in my city you can drive 4 or 5 miles across town and have the temperature change by 4-6 degrees.

Right now it's 107. The forecast was a high of 107 which will be close but we will too closer to 110.
