Ok so it's 10:00 pm and it's 93F outside.

This might be ok for Texas and Georgia and all, but Not Upstate NY. WTF!

It's 10:30 PM now here and it's 90 F outside... I feel your pain. We're in a severe drought down here in Central Texas also. Lowest precipitation in several decades.

All the major natural and man-made lakes are drying up too.

It's about 86F here in south central PA at 1AM and the humidity is so unbearable that when you step outside it feels hard to take a breath.

Reminds me of a quote from Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam, "It's hot ... damn hot ... hot and wet ... fine if you're with a woman but lousy if you're in the jungle". Well welcome to the jungle!

I actually just got back from Walmart. I've been walking an hour a day since mid February and it was just so hot even at midnight that I simply walked up and down the aisles at Walmart. I must have been asked by at least 5 stockers if they could help me find something. If it wasn't so repetitive I would have done the whole hour in frozen foods and the meat department with an occasional pass through fresh vegetables when the water spritzers were on.

(Rascal and I used to walk every day. We did that for about 7 years until the end when her arthritis made her refuse to even go near the truck. I figured it out one time and all the walking she & I did together we could have walked from the Canadian border all the way to Mexico City and back. Now it seems a lot harder doing it just by myself, especially after having stopped for over two years.)

I like warm weather actually. I was born outside of Dallas, Texas. Lived there most of my young childhood life.

Anyways back on topic. It is 12:20 AM and 59*F here in Portland. We are lucky here, this spring and summer has been very cool, the 2nd coolest and wettest on record. Normally, it would be 80-90* right now, which is warm enough that I cannot sleep under the thinnest blanket without my bed becoming soaked in sweat. I personally don't find those temps to be "hot" but my body seems to think otherwise.

Not me. I say I can always put on more clothes but once I'm buck naked that's as cool as it gets ... and then the neighbors complain when I get the newspaper

And our heatwave broke a while back, it hits near 90 midday but is low-mid 70s nights. We've even had rain; Texas isn't doing well at all in that department.
