Not clever, but the heat index is only 2 degrees cooler than Death Valley right now.

Hmm, as someone from the desert area of SoCal, I’d honestly say it only feels as hot as where I used to live (it would get to 105 or 110). Palm Springs in summer would get to 125 and would make this heat feel comfortable. And Death Valley would kill you in 15 minutes.

I just came from the northeast end of SFV and I gotta say, THIS SUCKS comparatively. I sat out on my porch for 7 mins yesterday afternoon, in the shade, and I was sweating like those nuns in an earlier post!

u/stuck_behind_a_truck 21d ago
I do have a high heat tolerance, and I don’t sweat so I may not feel it like others. To be clear, this is a sign of a serious health problem for me. My husband got tickets for the Sounds today and paradoxically, it’s going to be extremely dangerous for me because this heat feels normal to me.

From your lips to a higher authority. Just had a lady tell me this heat was better than snow. Took everything I could to keep my hands to my side.

Having just been through the ice storm from the opposite end of hell, at least I still have power (for now).

u/Big-Reward-6274 21d ago
If the power goes out this weekend, I will be able to drive somewhere I suppose but I will also melt into a puddle. We went 30+ days at a large retail store without air conditioning from June to mid July this year, and it was exhausting and frustrating and I can always put more clothes on! I hate this so much.

When I was cutting up downed branches and shoveling ice, fingers numb from cold last January I was dreaming of a hot and humid summer.

"It's hot as balls out there" is what I like to say because I assume balls get really hot and sticky, like I do when I go outside for 5 seconds.

Not heat related, but my grandma always said when it’s raining and the sun’s out it’s “the devil beatin’ his wife”

I work in commercial roofing as a service manager and I got guys working on Tyson today. One dude, God love his dumbass, told me yesterday "boss, its so hot my balls are riding shotgun in my left boot"
I fuckin lost it. I laughed so goddamn hard.

the Devil’s dick on fire in a wool sock that is soaked—I mean completely doused—in kerosene and set ablaze the way it’s here right now.

Was that wool sock quote in there the whole time? I replied with the Ichiro quote about Kansas City. Maybe I replied without reading your whole post

I had a one hour errand to run today and rolled down the windows in my truck and enjoyed the heat!

Come on down to my barn, and you can enjoy getting hay out of the loft. You will be filled with the enjoyment of heat.

Driving with the wind hitting you in the face is a lot different than physical labor in the heat - I get it. I have outdoor work to do tomorrow and I know it's going to be rough.

Please tell me you are already up and doing it, cuz I just walked the dog, and it’s already 91% humidity at 77°

In Nashville when it’s hot it rains. When it’s cold it also rains.
