Living in a desert isn’t normally too bad. I hug my air conditioner, and endeavor to stay out of the direct sunlight for 6 months out of the year.
It does have its annoyances from time to time, however.
Even on a relatively cool day like today (104F), simple tasks like leaf blowing the front courtyard, sweeping the garage, and a trip to Costco result in being drenched in sweat. So far, I’ve had two showers, and I’m on my third change of clothes.
Currently 91 here in The Southeast Kern County Desert
75 degrees F at 3 P.M. today 7/12 in Fremont, CA.
Bunch of local boys around here.
It’s 91 in Fresno/Madera area.
“So far, I’ve had two showers, and I’m on my third change of clothes.”
Useless without pix.
It’s 78 on my front porch here in the mountains of WNC.
96 in Central Texas. A pool is the only remedy.
But it’s a dry heat…
52 degrees, cloudy and a light rain falling here in Edinburgh…
A light kind of sideways rain that is considered “nice” weather in Edinburgh????
Quartermaster shares climate with me and my eight dog-buddies, and it’s a treat to read the reports from other readers world-wide.
With the heat you’re experiencing I do wonder why bother with clothes, but that’s a tactical decision you are free to make.
Cheers y’all.
I bother with clothes because I prefer not to get arrested.
(by either the real police or the taste police)
I didn’t sweat much when I lived in Arizona. Then when I moved to northern VA, it was “less hot” but I sweated like a dog.
Wait, so “Bring the Heat” doesn’t refer to your desire to live in the hottest place in the CONUS? 🙂
And I am happily surprised to see two more Western NC “hillbillies” on this thread. Talk about a small world…
Fortunately you won’t have to put up with the heat for much longer. The new mini-ice age will be here in less than a decade: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3156594/Is-mini-ICE-AGE-way-Scientists-warn-sun-sleep-2020-cause-temperatures-plummet.html
You may find out that the desert becomes quite comfortable during the day. I hear that it does get cold at night. BTW this model works, unlike the models used to predict global warming,
And you live there voluntarily?
