We have been having massive heat waves. It's in the 90's and extremely humid. Really unpleasant. I have to wear a jacket at work to protect my arms from cuts, grease and oil etc and I feel sick after a couple hours. It really seems in New England it's either a billion degrees or snowing
Awww unpleasant humidity in New England?!?! You poor thing.
Actually we've just gotten a little cool spell, it's only been in the mid 80's for us recently but it's going to heat back up I am sure...these pussies playing football and doing 2 a day practices in this had better LOVE it. 90+ with 70-100% humidity is how it used to be when I played....fun times.
For us up to 35'C today and nightime is rough too. It is hot.
By unpleasant I mean 90 to 100 percent I feel like I might pass out sometimes. I prefer winterQuote:

Also, the heatwaves this year so far have been a shorter duration than last year.
My sister lives in the Middle East .... it was 53 Centigrade yesterday and 98% humidity. Real heat is very tiring and quite dangerous for vulnerable people.
When she visits the UK and it hits 28, though, she says it feels hotter here because we are not set up for it. No aircon, no underground shopping etc.
It has been very warm here for weeks, upper 80s and low 90s, very low humidity. Now we are back to low 80s, high 70s. Lower to middle 40s at night. A couple weeks ago I was up in the Pioneer Mountains, well over 8000 feet, and it was raining but really wanting to snow.
I feel 35 is the absolute LOWER END of the range where hot actually begins, and in a New England in a machinery-area jacket isn't needed or worn in situations for protection of the extremities he just can't make that shit up. The pair of you pissing and moaning FFS hot means anything over 40°C Lyle is right.
Well it's been in The nineties with 90 percent humidity. I wear a jacket at my mechanics job cause the oil and sprays we use give me a rash. I think the heat is lifting next week hopefully. I don't think my trip to Arizona is well planned I'm hearing it's hitting 110 degrees in PhoenixQuote:

It made me appreciate the weather in England and the rain. I am slowly repairing now.
Its currently 18 degrees and overcast with a slight breeze. Perfect for swing bowling.
35'C again today. At 9pm still 30'c. Another hot night........
I can only empathise that is horrible to have to try and sleep through that. Put the air conditioning on.Quote:

Brock, it is different for you because you are unusual. Most people would say 28-35 over 24 hours is hot. It's south east asia hot, it's Bangkok hot, it's Hong Kong hot, it's hot. Not Middle East hot, but still hot. People can die because of this weather. It's hot for many.
Screw it though, I am going to the gym early.

Upper 80s... low 90s... very low humidity. Doesn't sound bad at all. Heat waves in parts of the US routinely hit mid to upper 90s, and even reach 100 sometimes. And high humidity in some places make it even worse. Places like New York, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Houston to name a few... have all seen that. Down here in P.R. it's a pretty hot summer also. We're closer to the equator, so we get the harsher sun rays. What helps us is two things: The ocean breezes from the Northeast (at least in the corner of the island where I live), and the fact that being an island tends to moderate the temperatures somewhat. It could be super sunny outside in the middle of summer and the hottest it usually gets is mid 90s. Beach weather. ;D
Tito these white boys can't take it, their necks get red.
It got up to 39'C in some parts of the country yesterday which is hot for pretty much anyone except Brock who isn't white. Really hot. I slept with the AC on and with a fan all night. Energy bills? The environment? Don't really care. It starts and ends with ME, ME, ME!
OK 39° is starting to get hot, even for Iraqi Armenians, though everyday between May 1 and Sept. 1 in Phoenix Arizona hit 44°C and maybe 10-15 days in there would approach 50°C. But OK 39° I'll concede is getting slightly hot.Quote:

I'm in Mojacar, Spain at the moment and it was 42 centigrade here today
Bet you have a 5 star hotel, AC and stay in the shade when you go out with loads of sun cream on? :cool:Quote:
