How's the weather been?

[Guest D]

Humid

 

[Doom!]

It's currently 103F but we still have a few degrees to go. The AC in the shop can't keep up with the outside temps. it's currently 81 in here and I'm drenched. Of course it's a busy day so I can't just sit at my desk and enjoy my fan.

Do these really work? I need a few for each leg, arm and a couple around my neck!

Its been cool recently but today... holy hotness!!! 92 and humid.
House is staying somewhat cool but had to stop watering container garden halfway thru. Sun is blazing!

Green house fan is keeping up so far.

The bird bath is filled.

They lied again.
Last night it said it would rain all day today
All clear and sunny right now and for the rest of the day.
Charged up a Pro4 battery to use later tonight

I used to work in an enamel pan factory that stayed above 110° inside because of the furnace baking the enamel on the pans. Even through the winter, it was like an oven inside. We all wore those spongy ones around our necks that you soaked with water. They really helped, aling with fans.

A little cooler today with a nice breeze. Possible showers tonight which would be nice.

I have used a small ice pack strapped to my arm to cool the blood. It works well for as long as its frozen.
I see ads for these neck cooler things but never tried one.

Stupid hot and humid for here again and tomorrow is worse. If it was a little more humid and rain just enough to keep the dust in the shop yard down that'd be awesome. I put a big sprinkler on to try to help but it only did a little. The dust is literally 3-4 inches deep. With heavy equipment running around it's mud or dust lol

We used ones like this years ago.

They were filled with gell beads. Soak them in ice water and they stayed cool a long time. And they were awesome.

They really worked great. They cooled you off pretty good. Just keep an ice filled cooler nearby with a backup in it

look on the bright side. the weather idiots aren't liars.

 

[DavidB1126]

Nah they still are. they just exaggerate much. too much that is...

The bright side is still dark when the lights are out.

They know what they're doing. It's called fear mongering. If they detect the slightest rotation in the sky, which nearly every big storm cell has - tornado warning!!!
