holy sh...t it's hot

It was 86 today. How do you southerners deal with this sh.t.? Do you live indoors all the time? I can stay outside for about 15 minutes then I'm baked.

 

Word...I’m one of those people who sweats when it’s 68 outside so when it’s above 85 I’m drip mode all day unless I’m in AC or water.

Soft yankees........

 

It was 94 yesterday in Joliet . 86 this morning at 10:30 . I’m doing a remodel on an income property down here and my A/C unit is on the fritz ... anything above 80-82 max Sucks ..
the Southerners are used to it cuz the Sun has cooked their brains and they don’t know any better

 

Get a pool.

It's a game changer.

 

Stop smoking crack would help. 86 is almost cool enough to need a long sleeve when riding.
Its kinda cool here today, only 93 right now.

 

I'm happy with any high below 100 degrees.

I have 3 months left of the inferno with highs between 105 -115

 

Eh... 33 went I woke up this morning.

 

85 is pleasant. Mid 90s get's crappy unless you're in the shade. From Georgia with love.

 

102 here lol

 

It's 84 in No. Fl. but it's been pouring rain for days.

 

104 is Socal.

 

86? GTFO. Wait til it starts climbing up into the upper 90s and triple digits. And all you Floridiots, Commies, and Texans GTFO with your numbers. Yalls shit aint the same. South of the Mason Dixon and a couple hundred miles inland I am convinced is some of the worst hell any summer on the planet has to offer. But at least our winters aint too bad.

 

85 in the great white north...igloos are melting

 

99 here in San Diego

 

My car said 99 degrees yesterday when we left to hit the beach.

Water felt like it was 40.

 

I’m heading out west this summer and I’ve dealt with 120 degree days in Death Valley that are more comfortable than 92 in Louisville. Southeast hot is a special kind of miserable.

 

humidity humidity humidity....

 

When I was on the Kitty Hawk, we had these 12" ventilation ducts piping down air to keep us cool. We'd shove a thermometer as far up in them as we could reach... and as long as that thermometer read under 100° we didn't have to run short shifts for PHEL. Generally a couple of shakes and it would read under 100... nobody wants to work 3 hours on 3 hours off for days on end!

There was one spot where our low man on the totem pole would have to take three readings... it was right in between the boiler and the DFT (big tank with 3600 gallons of water at about 230-240 degrees). The temp there was usually about 150 or 160.
