But… getting AC helps you look down on people?

It's a sauna everywhere and I'm embracing it.

Exactly. It’s quite nice reading people whine about the heat and thinking “Ah, the poors are restless again.”

lol - it’s still 29 inside my house.

But it's a dry sauna.

I'm getting a 'that's cute' response when I talk to my coworkers about the heat wave. Of course, many of my coworkers live in Texas, Arizona, Nevada..... where they're talking about temps into the high 40s. High of 47-48 today in Arizona and Nevada.

10:30 and it is 27, love it

Today is a lot more pleasant. A little bit of a breeze, not quite as hot. As a non-AC peasant (for now), I have been trying to be disciplined with opening and closing windows at the right times, etc. but it has been a losing battle.

Today I'm letting the breeze roll through the house because if it is going to be 27 in here no matter what I do, I may as well have 27 with moving air, instead of 27 with still air.

I didn't want to to cut my grass in 34 (more for the grass than me), but today's the day.

I can do 27-29 outside all summer, with a few 30-ish days thrown in. 34 is a bit much. I'm liking the forecast coming up - mid to high 20s, maybe a drop of rain here and there.

Not really.

I generally enjoy warm climates, except at home. Because when I'm in Mexico I'm typically lounging by a pool, enjoying the sea breeze, sipping on a cold drink, enjoying the tropical air and I can take a dip in the pool or retreat to my preposterously air-conditioned room.

Ditto Vegas.

Whereas at home I have to worry about mowing my lawn or other household chores and in 35 degree heat and that sucks.

Oh. And its a 'dry heat' which means theres no reprieve with a breeze or anything its essentially living in an oven. Which also sucks.

Ya when its 35° degrees out, the slight breeze is like going from a regular oven to a convection oven. Thanks wind Gods, just what I needed - more heat blown at me.

Do what people who live in hot climates do and get any stuff done outside by 11 am or after 7 pm.

I was in Vegas in July when it hit 47c. the asphalt was super soft and i thought the tires on my rental were going to melt.lol

[BlAcKNoVa]

my bedroom which faces the setting sun, nearly hit 38c last night. I'll gladly take -30 over that crap.

[Looch City]

Just get AC you plebs.

Mine would do the same. I just installed some heat blocking tint film and wow I wish I did that years ago, especially considering how cheap and easy it was. At least 4-6 degrees cooler now.

[Johnny Makarov]

Do you know what. I will take 3-4 days of +35c if it means no smoked filled days.
