Summer heat and misery discussion thread

Where are y0u located in Florida?

Hmmm. In Memphis, Tennessee it is 89 right now with 63% humidity. Heat index is 99. It's supposed to get up to 92 today with scattered thunderstorms tonight. Usually it's hotter and more humid here. We normally get the heat from the plains and the humidity from the Gulf of Mexico.

East central Florida, a few miles from the coast, so the heat where I live isn't quite as bad because the sea breeze is there, but where I work is more interior so it just bakes.
And those summer thunderstorms help, too. This time of year here it rains almost every afternoon-evening to some degree.

I feel you. I used to do attic insulation for my father's construction company. We had a standing rule that if it was going go be 100 degrees out, we wouldn't insulate the attics. We had a run of 11 days over 100 degrees that summer. The day we implemented the policy, on the news that night, a guy in a competing company died from heat stroke doing exactly what I did. I have measured attic temps of 125 before. Roof temps were much worse. I did roof work for almost 20 years. On the upside, it made me more heat tolerant so that I can fursuit for a very long time, although age is taking its toll on that.

I'm in Atlanta and I'm dying. We don't have central air. Just LOTS of fans. Uuugghhh. The humidity is always like 70% too

Oh Houston, Texas. Why you gotta be 91 degrees F/ 31 degrees C with 90% Humidity?
It feels like it's 100 degrees F/ 38 degrees C

We live next to the coast of the North sea. Lovely and windswept and cool. I'm so damn smug. xD

when you work outside, and you have to wear protective cloths due to the companie policies and have to carry some eavy boxes along the way, it's worse than being in the melon field.

I'm mindblown it's as hot as texas here. Just came from a walk... 34 C (93 F) but humid as idk what. It just rained but the temperature fricking rose instead of let down.

 

[ZeroVoidTime]

75 degrees where I'm at but only because it is raining right now where I live.

Not to invoke envy, but we had a bit of rain this morning! Nice and refreshing!

Now it's getting warm and humid again

Another high of 90

Anyone else having more problems with fleas this year than previous? Normally they're not this aggro but I think they tend to survive better in hot weather. Maybe it's just me. Being a fleabag.

Warm weather can accelerate their egg development, though a heated house in the winter can also do the same.

 

[OneEyedCanine]

Almost 90F today, then the wind carried yet another thunderstorm in. It'll heat back up tomorrow though, Utah gets 90-105F pretty consistently around August. Thankfully my art desk is set up in the basement where it stays cool.

Can we please use the bombs to make nuclear winter? :[

Good to know! We don't have central air, just a bunch of fans for the record.

 

[Misha Bordiga Zahradník]

90°F or 32°C, with 57% humidity. So felt temp of 98°F or 37°C.

That's normal this time of year where I live.

I don't think that's at good odds of happening outside of our Foreign Policy Sim.
