Got word from my friends in Minnesota, that they are suffering with record breaking temps and humidity - sounds nasty.
Meanwhile, here in England it is chucking it down with rain (please, no stereotype comments about our weather), I hope it gets better here - going camping on Friday. Time to choose some lights (and waterproofs).

I've spent the majority of my life in Texas and a good while in Taiwan - and all I can say is - you people who have snow and cold weather have no idea how lucky you are! You can always add clothes. When it's so hot that you can strip naked and pelt yourself with ice water in front of a brand new and perfectly functioning A/C unit vent and STILL feel hot, you'll soon be singing a different tune. If anyone that lives up north wants to trade houses with me, I'm willing to relocate! I have a feeling it's only going to get worse! I have Texas pride and all, but I need to get my family out of here. This is getting ridiculous!

My pool is 92 degrees... and no, I do not have a heater for it. Our lows are in the 90's. I'm so sick of 120+ every day. I'm so sick of sweating. I'm hitting the road tomorrow just my new little puppy and me in my cute little Cube to Denver for a couple of days then east to New York. Anything is better than this freakin' desert... and I am looking forward to rain and humidity and GREEN!

Greta- where in NY? We've got a few flashaholics just north of NYC ... 🙂 It's been 90+ inside my shop here for a couple days straight, today, tomorrow, and Sat. are going to be worse. Can't even say it's a dry heat! Beats Saudi and Iraq, though. Back in 1990 I landed in the middle of the night straight from Ft. Lewis, Wa. and walked off the plane thinking that must be the heat from the engines... In the words of Ron White, " I was WRONG!" 🙂 Six hottest months of my life followed.
Upstate near Albany. My Mom just got AC put in her house last month and she has a pool that hangs around 78 degrees... I think I'm going to be ok...

Just got back from 90s in Cabo and I'm visiting the inlaws in Dallas where it's 100+ only to go back to Bahston where it's going to be in the 90s. It's all about the humidity. I need another piña colada. Ugh

Only make this offer if you're married, dude. The trade-off otherwise isn't worth it if you know what I mean 🙂

Here in NYC today is our forecast:
Oh yeah, and it is extremely humid, like our summers tend to be here.

110°F a short time ago. The AC isn't keeping up, either. I guess 5000 BTU to cool a 100 square foot room is inadequate at these kinds of temperatures.

Yep...I use my 5500btu upstairs in my bedroom along with central air
probably high humidity is causing a lot of the problems with AC units as they have to pull the water out of the air to lower the temperature first.
