I moved my bird bath into shade and in so doing, sloshed a bunch of water on the patio. That gave me the idea to drench the entire patio. My patio is uneven, so not only did I soak it enough to cool down the concrete temps, but it also formed some puddles. I wish I had thought of it sooner. I'll do this regularly in future heat waves. I'm also going to buy some misters and maybe more bird baths.
