Especially if it's 90 degrees outside. Man I'm funny.
Here the temp is 36 = 36 * 9 / 5 + 32 = 96.8. Far too hot.
I just viewed the tube, and Illinois corn farmers are in trouble.
Their corn looks disgusting. No real rain since April 14.

Summer is not chocolate season. A number of years ago my Christmas
Candy making buddy wanted to make some candy for a summertime picnic,
so we did but I kept telling him it was a mistake.

He found out! :-(

I live in the Central Valley in CA. It gets f'n HOT here a lot. Not
as hot as AZ or NM, but HOT. And dry, usually. 110 deg and 5% - 10%
humidity is common in summer. That's why we say "It's a dry f'n
heat".

You know it's too hot when:

1. The asphalt street is squishy.
2. If out working, you have to keep your tools in a bucket of water or
else you can't touch them.
3. You start work at 4:30 am and quit by 2:00 pm.
4. Tomatoes stop setting fruit
5. Your dog dies
6. Your AC runs 24 hrs straight
7. You have to run the AC in your car for 10-15 mins before you can
sit in the drivers' seat (the sniglet "gromax" comes to mind)
8. You take 3 showers per day
9. Hot food seems inedible
10. The windsheilds on both your cars crack

Been there..... drank that....

Every year it's the same thing. Sure, some records fall every
year - this year a lot of them - but every year it's the same thing
whether it's winter or summer, people talking about how cold or hot it
is, as if it's a way-out phenomenon new to earth.

The world is like a globe. Well, actually, they call it one.
But I mean it's like one of those glass snow globes where you shake it
up and snow falls. While there is deadly drought in some spots of the
world, other spots are inundated with deadly water. It's like a
cyclical phenomenon that never ends. Every bit of water that is used
is evaporated into the sky and comes down again at some point. The
funniest of all is when people suffering one sort of weather disaster
begin praying for it to end, and when it ends the complete opposite
comes roaring in to take it's place. Oh God, this draught is killing
us, please make it go away. Ok people, you got it - and bingo, here
comes the flood. Gotta love it. It's 100 here today and I have never
owned an air conditioner in my life. I'm proud of it. Sure, it's
brutal at the moment, but it will pass - and when the temperature goes
down into the 80s the feeling in this room with only a cheap box fan
in the window will be far superior to anything any air conditioner can
produce. A lot of people turn on their air because it's hot out, then
leave it on till it gets cold. Then they run the heat. They talk
about the climate wherever they go but they never even experience it.

Every year it's the same thing.

Usually, the record highs and record lows are in a roughly 1:1 ratio. This
year it has ben about 10:1 (record hot v record cold)

TRENBERTH: You know, as time goes on, we always expect to set new records,
but there should be an equal number of highs and lows. And in the 1950s and
the '60s and '70s, that was the case. But by the time we got to the 2000s,
the ratios of highs to lows was about two-to-one and this year so far it's
running at about a ratio of ten-to-one.

Life is hearty. Everything alive today is tough. We are tough
too. I can't prove it and won't try, but I believe that we as earthly
creatures can handle almost any change, maybe even all change, as long
as it's gradual enough.

Same story here in Iowa, the corn state. I'm having to water trees in
my yard that I planted 3-4 years ago.

You know its too hot when right angles melt away :-)

104 degrees here yesterday. I have run my central air 24/7 for two weeks
now set on 60 degrees. Last night at 10pm it was 78 degrees inside. No
insulation between me and the roof.

You know it's too hot when your cat goes bald :-)

I miss you, Johnny.

No insulation? Really? Where do you live that the temperature is so
moderate that you don't need any insulation.

Electricity is relatively inexpensive here in the South, but the AC
units have been known to run for months at a time without being shut
off. Good insulation is a must!

I would like to insulate my house, but the walls have rocks in them. When
they renovated one of the bathrooms, discovered this. Which now makes it
about impossible to insulate the outside walls. Why they put rocks there,
no one understands. My wife-ex said she had seen that out west sometimes.

Rock in your walls? That's cool! I like that practice. If there's a lot
of mass in your walls, that a good thing. The mass acts as a thermal
buffer and tends to keep the temperature swings inside your house
withing a narrow range. It's the reason this rock in the middle of the
world's biggest body of water doesn't have much of a temperature range.
