Title: I think I nearly had a heat stroke today.
Post by: Estes on June 14, 2011, 10:43:17 PM
With temperatures like this, I wouldn't be surprised if (when) I have one. Heh.

Got water?

Like, a lot of water? If you're thirsty you're already in danger.
But you know this. That's damn hot though!  :mad:

If that's your engine temperature, it's a little low.
If that's the outside temp...  :O

 When I was stationed in Abilene we had a 2 week stretch of 108 degrees everyday. The shop boss had me out looking for gas valves that had been buried. I dug a bunch of holes in that friggin clay, and never found them. When I got back to the barracks my olive t shirt looked like it was tie dyed white with the salt that came outta me. I was spent.

Once it gets past 105 you cant tell the difference, it's just hot.

 when i walk out of my 120F+ shop into the 105F parking lot, that 105 feels pretty dam good for a few minutes.

Its been right at 100F everyday here for the past couple weeks. Luckily the humidity has been pretty low so far. But at the same time that low humidity combined with the winds were supposed to have today and the fact that its been over a month since it's rained has my county under a fire weather warning today. Maybe, just maybe we can get through the day without any major fires burning.

That's actualy my only complaint this year, we've had a late summer, especialy compared to recent years, and it's still realtively too mild here and June-gloomed in the morning to get the lovely CA beuties wearing fashions comprised of less than one square meter of fabric before and even much after noon.   :(

If we don't get some rain soon this summer is going to get ugly. I'm not looking forward to this.

I dont think it has gotten below 80 degrees all week, even at night.  It was 85 by noon and on its way to 107.  :frown:  Theres a chance for scattered thunderstorms but im not holding by breath.

Hasn't topped 100 in Atlanta or my area yet, i'm expecting it to in July. I'm beyond ready for things to cool down to the 70's and 60's. Got some rain heading in tomorrow and Thursday and i'll keep my fingers crossed, its pretty dry down here as well.  :uhoh
