The closest I can compare to that up here is the day before the 100F heat in July 2011. I prefer a little humidity over A/C since it dries my skin out. Summer is my only chance to escape nose bleeds.

My first shift at DVN I pulled off an 88/84 afternoon in August. Walking out of the air conditioned WFO to head to the inflation building for balloon launch I had the moisture condense on me.

Damage In Tolland Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 There's nothing like one of those muggy 74/72 nights. The air is still and you're just tracking all kinds of billowing clouds..waiting for the next cell to pop.. I am a winter lover 1 and humidity/summer/tstorm lover 2.

The last 3 years worth of marches have been pretty unrealistic. This is much more climo friendly, but actually even more so in that we had a big snow event this time, plus the cold departures over the last 12 days.

That's like saying that just because people prefer bitter cold and snow, they should be forced to spend the night out side naked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
