Hot Hot Hot

They say we may break the record of 101 degrees today. I’m sure this is wussy stuff to those of you reading from Arizona, but we’re not used to it here.

Yeah, but high humidity turns those Arizonans into wussies, too. Let them try 101 with our humidity. Please. Take it out of here.

As Americablog pointed out, this is what Iraqis have to deal with without A/C because we still haven’t gotten power running in their country…

I lived in AZ in the summer of ‘86, and they had a 110 degree heatwave. Yeah, it was hot, but I sure didn’t melt like I do here in Philly. It was more of a blast oven than a sauna.

Still, we opted to walk to lunch every day during the heat wave.

Living in New Mexico and aving traveled the last two weeks back in New York and virginia, i can tell yo it is a dream to be back. I can bend over without myclothing sticking to me. i can work without feeling sewat dripping down my back. i can walk without having to cut my way throught the fog. I am so glad to be back despite leaving my family back where I was raised. even on the car trip back, getting out to gas up in 103 weather in Oklahoma, i felt like I was in heaven. However, the down side is we are running out of water and I miss the green verdant landscape and garden which grows with constant watering, which I no longer do as I don’t want to use more than my share of water. Each place has its drawbacks.

I don’t know if you know it but this time of year (end of July through August) is monsoon season here in Arizona. This means high humidity with our 110 degree temp. But I will admit it has cooled off from the 120+ temps we had been having. Summer is my favorite season in spite of this.

I should also note that it’s not a real monsoon (more of a chubasco), and that the humidity is higher than normal, but still rarely over about 40%. You have all my sympathy, believe me. My working thesis is that if the temperature and the humidity added together is more than 160, that’s downright uncomfortable.
