As I type this, you're at 34% humidity (KDFW). Dalhart is at 17%. Here in Greensboro, it's 84% with temp at 79° (brought down from 90°+ by t-storms). Around here, sweating does no good - it won't evaporate so all you do is overheat.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Wow, there are a bunch of us in the Texas, and around the DFW area in particular.
Was flying around my house in FSX the other day, thinking "yep, that's how it looks like right now -- everything crisp and brown from the heat and lack of rain."
At least we have A/C everywhere, I feel for the Hobbit and everyone else who does not. We lost our A/C awhile back, and I could not sleep with that heat.

[Explanatory Note: For those on the Funny Fahrenheit scale, zero C is when water freezes, 30 is getting quite hot]
Winter sort of missed Auckland this year, day temperatures are mid-teens.
The coldest (supposed) day barely made it into single figures, normally we'd get subzero and heavy frosts.
Even down south, the skiing season was delayed until last week due to lack of snow on the Alps.
There's no question global weather patterns are changing...be interesting to hear from those in the European summer.

I just hope my Central Air unit holds together . It's pushing 17-18 years old now . I do change the filter once a month in the furnace . A service tech told me to pour some bleach down the 1 " PVC drain pipe once a month also . It keeps the mold out and keep it from plugging up . It's a Carrier furnace and central air unit and so far it's done the job over the years .
Here On The GULF COAST???...its always HOT!.....however some of the nations temps are exceeding ours....But its temporary,that big hot bubble will pass.....Soon we will be commenting on the LOW temps....but never in Florida!.....

It's hot here on Sanibel, but it isn't the heat that is unbearable, but rather, the mosquitoes. They are unusually bad this year. Fog trucks spray every night, and just yesterday I watched a UH-1, outfitted with spray booms, making passes over a nearby pond. The "skeeters" are voracious little b...s....rds. No matter what time of day, you cannot leave your house without coating yourself in Deet spray, or at least some type of insect repellent.
On a different subject, I bought a video camera to mount on my bicycle. I plan to start making some short videos, which I will upload the links here....

I'm melting here in Northwest Indiana. It was 86ºF in my bedroom most of the night...
...with the window a/c unit going full blast!
Unfortunately, the compressor on my central air blew out about a week after the warranty ran out...
...and I simply can't afford the $1,000+ they want to replace it and recharge the system.

I hear you! My new place is built on former swampy land. About 6 blocks from my house, it reverts to swampy land. Mosquitos???? More like bomber formations with millions of fighter escorts!!!
Just been outside with the dog and it's hot out there! Checked the weather site when I got in and it says 99°F with 51% humidity giving a 'feels like' temperature of 122°F!
This is CANADA! Where are the icebergs and snow drifts when you need them!
