HA! All of those posters here making fun of us nerdy basement dwellers, that don't need AC. How do we look now?! (nah, don't bother answering that....)
Meh, not really. KGW showed how to make one of these today. Pretty cool, but not revolutionary. Gonna be 90 degrees at 11 o'clock tonight. Fucking hell.
Yeah, I-5 south of us today was REALLY bad. Looked like the old field burning days. Weird to think it's coming all the way from B.C.. Damn hosers.....
Nice down on the South Coast today. About 88 I think, a little breeze. Probably go up the mast tomorrow, make a few rigging changes if it's like this.
You poor bastards. OH IT IS SO HOT IN VEGAS ALL THE TIME...BOOOO. Ha, have the AC set to 79 at night and wrap up in my blankey cuz I get cold. I do have 4 thermostats but didn't feel like getting nests for all of them. The theater room is upstairs so I bought one for it first. Turn it down before movie time and then back up to 87 or so when not in use. It only gets hotter than 87 up there in the hottest part of the summer.
You couldn't handle the 65 degrees that I like to chill in but I guess I'm comfortable in the cold because I'm cold blooded.
There's actually a pretty bad fire up near Detroit. They had to close 11 miles of the PCT, last I heard. I think that's what's up with the smokeyness near Salem.
Medford is a very nice place for us hillfolk to drive over the mountains and shop at real stores like Best Buy/Trader Joe's, and eat at fancy restaurant's like In N Out Burger, but fuck actually living there. It's always ten degrees warmer than over here, and we have you Northerners beat by like 10-15 degrees most of the time in the summer! Shit, I was over there late last October and it was still in the upper 80s.
Same here. I absolutely hate hot weather, and because I did so much camping in awful weather when I was a teen, my body is much more adapted to cold weather, which I prefer. For me personally, it's easier to warm my body up than it is to cool it down. I have to admit though....this A/C I have has given me goosebumps today. And the irony of not liking hot weather is that I would love to live in Arizona...preferably, the northern part of the State, where it's cooler than the southern half. Another downside to hot weather.....spiders. Pretty much year-round, I have to deal with spiders in my apartment, but it gets WAY worse during the hotter months. Yesterday, I killed over 30 spider hatchlings on my ceiling, and I know that there are more on the loose. Last year, I spent an entire week killing them as I found them each day on the table next to my recliner. In addition to that, the past two days I've killed 5 fully-grown spiders of the same species. And last week, I killed a large house spider on my door frame outside. That thing was HUGE. Thank God it didn't make it inside! I would put out spider traps, but my cat would get into it. I'd leave to do something one day, and I'd come home only to find the trap stuck to her paw, and her looking miserable.
