NFT: It is hot as hell out there.

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 6/18/2018 11:08 am
JFC. A balmy 97 here today in Raleigh, with temps hitting 99 tomorrow. This heat sucks.
I absolutely despise the winter.  
BigBlue2112 : 6/18/2018 11:12 am : link
So I welcome the heat. No matter how ridiculously hot it may be.
And I absolutely despise humifity  
njm : 6/18/2018 11:18 am : link
Yesterday was 90 degrees with very low humidity, which I have no problem with. But when the dew point hits 70 or higher I'd rather have 15 degrees with 25 mph winds.
I'm also in NC

Going out to play golf today around 2:00 or so because the course should be empty. I can walk and take my time. The heat doesn't bother me.

I played golf yesterday. Was warm and very muggy. We were lucky with cloud cover almost the whole time and there was a slight breeze. Not the case today. 10 degrees hotter and no clouds or wind and high humidity. No thanks.

Ooooo. Such a badass, playing golf, lol. Swinging once and then walking around. Probably just drive the cart. I work in this heat all day.

Long Beach island looked like a smoking oven this morning. Very little visibility.

How about...fuck the extreme heat AND the extreme cold? Why does it have to be bounce from one to the other in comparison? Every hear of "middle-of-the-road", people?

WTF is that? Like nobody else works in the heat.

It's called joking....He was making light of the heat because he was playing the most non-strenuous recreational sport on his day off. Just playing the role of "one of those" toppers.

Don't take it so hard and lighten up. Asshole? That's cutting it nice for BBI these days.

My central air has been busted for about a month, but I've been able to just keep the windows open since it has been cool most of the nights. I saw the forecast this week and knew that needed to be addressed ASAP.

Just got it running again. Thank god.

Bingo. Why can’t it be 60-70 year round with a light breeze?! And no I’m not moving back to Southern California 🤮

Yes the heat sux yard work early am or evening. On the bright side what I pay in property tax for 1 year is what I paid in NJ for one month.
I'll take it in favor...

..of the 6 months of non stop precipitation we've had here. I have not insignificant areas of my property that I'm just now able to walk on or drive a mower through without churning up mud for the first time this year.

I lived near Irvine/Santa Ana from '83-'86 when I was in the USMC. Recently, I checked out the area on Google Earth. Seems like the population has doubled since then and all farms & orchids have gone bye-bye.

Sux about your taxes because you are paying for _______ ______ benefits.

Now, if you are in the top 1% of wage earners, you might enjoy San Juan Capistrano/Dana Point areas.
Stupid me.

I just stepped out onto Madison Avenue... what a day to women watch. Love seeing some of the beautiful women of NYC strut their stuff on a hot-ass day like today (even a comment like that makes you wonder if you've violated some #metoo PCness - what a world...).

would take that anyday over 98 with shit ton of humidity?

jtfuoco : 6/18/2018 2:34 pm : link
to think the same way during the winter that give me the heat because the cold sucks and you cant do anything but with these temps and humidity I have to rethink it because at least during the winter you can dress for the occasion but in these temps you just melt and can do little to fight it and throw in some mosquitoes and its a straight nightmare. I need to find a place that is like Fall year round.

Yup, agreed 100%. I've held that logic firm since I was a young kid, always felt that way. Even if your heat If off and it's 10 degrees outside, you will survive and can do many many things to keep warm and bundle up, etc etc

The heat, well I don't mind it , but when you are out in it for a while it's horrible and not great. Basically the only true solution is Cold AC. Otherwise you will sweat no matter what you do or you'll get sunburned in the pool
101 degrees here in AZ.  
madgiantscow009 : 6/18/2018 2:53 pm : link
actually a pretty nice day this time of year. Dry heat is a real thing.
yep 104 is no problem for golfers and tennis players out here

Where you stationed at Tustin? That base is being gobbled up by shopping centers and apartments. I work down the block. MCAS-EL Toro is now the "Great Park"..lol
I hate the Northeast weather  
JonC : 6/18/2018 4:35 pm : link
except for Sept/Oct ... lived in Northern California twenty years ago and it was the closest thing I know to be mild and comfy like Autumns in NY. It does get hot in Silicon Valley and there's little shade on most of the peninsula, but it was worth it. Spent one Thanksgiving weekend watching football games while lounging in the hot tub, 65-70 degrees and breezy.
Winter doesn't

bother me at all. I can't stand the heat. I don't belong in Virginia. May have to retire back up north somewhere.

Over the winters back in Jersey!

The 4 months June to September, may be hot and humid but I do everything early, golf,chores, whatever, Then jump in my pool. Later in the evening if the thunderstorms are over then a walk or a bike ride, work up a nice sweat and back in the pool. Tough life. No snow, no scraping windshields , no potholes!
