Let me see??..... Arizona?..... 5% humidity? Try one of those mist spray systems. You should drop a few degrees. It seems to help with livestock here in Texas. If it doesn't work, you're only out about $20. I know you were jesting and I sort'a am too. But the more I think about it.......
We're old. We do what we can do best which is complain about things and the weather often provides a good opportunity to complain.
I've switched to the night shift. 70° vs. 100°. I work 8pm-6am and I can work straight through due to the ultra cool temps!
Stuck my head in the garage twice today for REALLY short periods. This weekend is a pool weekend. Yes, I've become a puss.......
We spend our time pretty much split between Kentucky and our beach house in the Florida Pan Handle. When back in Florida after being gone for a month or two in the spring through fall it usually takes me 4-5 days to trim all the landscaping as it grows like weeds. You can almost watch everything grow. Its way too hot to work more then a couple of hours even in the early morning without getting heat stroke. This last trip I finally wised up and hired someone to trim the place up. Definetly not worth dying over $250. Gary
I have someone cut my lawn and do the spring and fall cleanups. Rained last nite and early into the morning and I was out taking the gutter off my garage today before it got hot. The soffit and fascia need a little help. Took a pool break to cool off.
Been well over 100 Deg. for about 2 weeks solid with no Days under 102 and as high as 112 for the next 3 weeks ( that’s as far as they will project) here in Central Valley Calif. according to the weather app. Had enough, hooked up to the travel trailer and headed to Monterey for the week. Hopefully Calif will burn to a crisp and fall off the edge of the map so I can convince my wife to move somewhere, anywhere else but here.
As I get older I get way less tolerant of the heat, I thrive in colder (not freezing) weather, I get way more work done with a better attitude.
Hey RB, Don't wish too hard, you never know what might happen in the future. Coastal living is always a little cooler, but there are some drawbacks. We just saw a movie called “How it Ends.” It does not paint a great picture of the end of Coastal California and the rest of the Westcoast of the USA. Hollywood fantasy for sure. But, there was also that movie where the big wave destroys the Bay Area, too. When we were driving around in the Pacific Northwest, especially on the shoreline of Washington/Oregon, we always saw these signs that said: “Tsunami Evacuation Routes” We knew that some of these beaches had a direct current to the Eastern Pacific Ocean and a sight line to the Alaskan earthquake zone. As calm as it was on the beach, we chuckled, since So Cal did not have those as yet. We smiled at these signs…all of the way down the coast to So Cal. Jnaki Then, one day, we started seeing these signs along the Los Angeles/ Orange County shoreline. So, I guess the authorities were conscious of the fact that a tsunami of any size from any direction, not just Alaska/North Pacific Zone would hit the So Cal coastline. The hot rod cruising highways and roads are now outlined on how to get the heck out of there !!! As far as where the evacuation route ends, well, that movie with the Atlantic tsunami went all the way back to a high point, somewhere in Virginia... how is that for fantasy? One good thing: the ocean does cool off the land daily.
I’m actually talkin about leaving the state of Calif.....the most ill run state in the union. One political class has ruined this state.
