None Like it Hot: The "I Hate the Heat" Club

[frogboy4]

That does it, I'm heading over to California tomorrow!

Mark Twain once reported, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." It gets hotter in the fall for a few weeks and nobody has air conditioning so that kind of bites, but it's nothing compared to summers in Houston, Texas!

I used to have to start my car, crank the AC and go back inside the house for five minutes every morning. Now I walk everywhere here in SF because nearly everything's a 10 minute walk and it's usually nice enough out. It gets so cold in the back of the toy shop where I work that I'm actually wearing a hoodie today!

....Wha?

Yeah, what Alex said.

Just thought I'd but up a visual aid.

Here's what jar flies sound like... now how would you like to listen to that all night long, all summer long?

Oh man! I heard those tings all my life and never knew what they were. I thought maybe they were power combined with crickets! Lol!

I'm skeptical, but I really hope that my area will have rain this week. The middle of summer is too much inside of my house, which gets to around the mid-80s.

Wellp, the weather reports are forecasting a severe heat wave for us this weekend, where we can expect temperatures up to the lower-to-mid 90s, and heat indexes up to 100 with plenty of abundant sunshine.

Mudfrogs!

Yeah we're getting that crap too this weekend, it's been so nice and cool here all summer, I've loved it! Oh well. Fall is around the corner!

 

[D'Snowth]

This summer's certainly been a lot more bearable than they have been the past few years or so... again, we've had a lot of rain this summer, so that's been a big help.

Unfortunately, now that summer's starting to wrap up, it's just going to get hotter now; and there's El Nino to contend with, so it looks like a warm fall and winter this year.

I am so using this thread to rant. So, I moved to Washington state about 3 months ago due to my job and I was it is going to rain all the time. Boy, was I wrong. Turns out I am living in a desert in Washington! It is almost always above 100 degrees and with my job working out on the tarmac it feels double. By 9am in the morning I am just soaked with sweat. But hey, I got a lovely farmer's tan going on.

Argh, my air conditioner in my car is broken, so the heat is even worse when I'm driving :s

 

[Teheheman]

Ok, NOW it starts to get hot. I knew that this was too good to be true. I knew that we were gonna have to pay for this nice weather SOMEHOW. Oh well, better now than getting slammed next June.

94 degrees today...

And I had to be out in that heat today on a wild goose chase... it's so hot out, I about nearly threw up I felt so sick! Yuck!

HAWKEYE: When is this gonna end?
B.J.: About five minutes before winter... come on, let's get out from under this hot moon.
HAWKEYE: I think the cheese is melting.
