Question for yall up north dealing with 100 degree temps

[wayne1218]

Hey vols, 100 degrees up here is like 1 inch of snow down there. Nobody knows what to do with themself and nobody leaves the house. The city doesn't shut down like down there but everything else is similiar!

I heard it's so hot up there, even the lobsters are sweating!

Nobody is eating lobster kb. You cook the bastards and the temps in the house go up 20 degrees!

I think they swam north to Nova Scotia too!

I spit today and it evaporated before hitting the ground!

I think the problem is taht it rarely gets that hot here and a lot of people do not have air conditioning because they don't feel like they need it. The humidity here gets near 60% too which is off the charts. I don't know what it is there but anything over 50% is considered very high. I work outside for a big part of my day and it is literally breath taking and breathing is even harder for the elderly.

50% humidity is low around here ...

This is what it is right now

Hell Joe, i don't know. Maybe you guys are more used to it than people up here. I don't remember the last time it hit 100 here and it has at my house 3 days in a row now. Doesn't bother me but all the old people with no AC and the dumbasses driving around with no AC because 4 wheel drive was more important are paying the price!

A cool 88 here for July. A few rain storms moving in. Don't hardly see a drop of rain in July here, and there's at least at a 40% chance everyday this week

Last January

I keep this photo handy, keeps my memory fresh, and yes I shoveled it out and went to work that day. We had the 90's and 85% humidity last week. Bring it on, I have no problem with it. (But then I have a 2 ton central air unit also)

I do not get all the hoopla .... it is July ... it gets hot in July ...

It is a crappy 95 degrees here in Illinois today ... What is the big deal????

I agree. Come down here in the south and see what hot is !!!

Just joking guys. The heat is bad everywhere and people need to be smarter. I am involved in baseball and we constantly have players and umpires passing out because they don't hydrate enough. We tell them to drink water and such 2-3 hours BEFORE the games. It does no good to drink during the games. Its like putting a bandaid on a gun shot right before it happens.
People with no A/C, especially the elderly ones (Spark?) should really take precautions.
