This whole summer I might as well have been living in Miami.

Spend a few days in Louisiana.

Humidity was awful.

Houston too.

I hate humidity.

Yep, you're not getting much sympathy from me! Frankly I don't know how people lived down here before air conditioning...

Rather not. Unless I have a 28" lasko fan taped to my face.

[Litos]

unless you're from Houston, Louisiana or Florida, you CANNOT complain about heat.

we had about 17 days in a row where the heat index was 104+.

you might not think that's hot, but when the wind is blowing zero miles an hour and the humidity is in the 50's, it's some of the most oppressive heat anyone can imagine.

p.s.
115 degrees in Arizona is a paradise because there's 5 or 6% humidity, max....

[Litos]

in Houston at 7:49PM, the heat index is 92 and there's 50% humidity....

sun ain't even out anymore, but I dare you to walk to the edn of your driveway and not break out into a mind numbing sweat....

Houston is the worst I've ever seen in the US. I spent the summer of '96 there and except for some freak weather the first weekend, it was miserable all summer. The folks who lived there seemed to have adjusted to it and would eat out on the restaurant deck if there was one. I'd be having dinner with them while sweat poured off me. I hated it.

But by far the worst was Korea. We had weeks in the 100F range with humidity upwards of 90%. Monsoon rains every day.The worst part was, there were no clothes dryers, so your clothes never really got dry. Mold would grow on your uniforms and heat rashes were the norm. No a/c in the barracks back then either, so sleeping was awful.

our "summer" this year started in February, where we were already hitting mid 80's.

it's been a WTF kind of year this year - EVERYBAAAWWTY is waiting for the first fucking cool front of the fall to come around...

I've been living here all my life (except the 3.5 years I lived out in San Diego) and I can never get used to it - it's more accurately described as dealing with it.....

I've heard SK was awful as well.

for 3 years I was on a project where the fab yard was in IL Sung. the fabricator (Daewoo) had the construction contract on the biggest off-shore platform ever fabricated, thanks to ExxonMobil swingin their huge dicks HAHA !!!!

so there were quite a few materials personnel and engineers that got to visit quite regularly for start-ups and testing and stuff like that.

they said it was about the same as Houston, but the winters are pretty harsh, seeing as it snows there.

just so you know, the last time Houston saw 40 degrees was the last week of January...

[Hisam135i]

+1 this is weird for Oc

[kihun]

Oh please stop crying.
Thinking about all those folks who are overseas in the middle east.
been there done that, it's gets upto 140 out there.

[1fastdoc]

I'll take heat over this miserable rain, every damn day, if it means some consistent sun. Got in the pool for the first time this past Saturday. Pulled all the stuff out of it today since it's the end of the season. May as well move to Orlando.

Truth...

On my first deployment there was a stretch of a month or so where it was 130+

I'm talking at the port in Kuwait, where the humidity is high too. Don't even want to know what the heat index was.

I guess I'm used to it here in houston, it's gonna be hot all week with little rain. I'm trying to remember when the first cold fronts come to houston, but I cannot recall last years time when the heat starting coming down.

[Red Bread]

Not to take away from those serving in the military, but the highest temp ever recorded was in Death Valley, at 134 F. The highest temp recorded in Kuwait was 128 F. Both clearly still suck, but neither are 140 F.

[PSUSMU]

DC area is rough. Singapore was by far the worst humidity I've ever experienced.

There you go, ruin a perfectly good pity party with facts!
