CT Rain Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 this dew of 79 is unreal feeling. You walk outside and it's like someone is just smacking you across the face with hot palm fronds. If I had tried to go another mile this morning I would have gone down. Dead serious . The dew is probably 90 where people live, work, and play.

If I had tried to go another mile this morning I would have gone down. Dead serious . Enjoy. I usually get a period of 87/78 type stuff when in Key West. It's quite an experience. Almost feels like you get instant condensation on your skin when you step outside from an air conditioned space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok current ob from Kissimmie Airport 81/79 You guys have got to feel this stuff. Lol. This is real deal I have and it blows. Your Davis would score an 85F dew down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I just wonder why anyone would want to be in those conditions day after day. Must suck with the mold and fungal stuff.

N. OF PIKE Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Did you work outside or inside? I did to, and i did not "really" get used to it. The only thing u get use to is constant AC. Sure there is SOME adaptation , i.e you will not sweat just standing outside when its 85/76 at 10pm like when u first move there, but its always hot and u learn to adapt by being near or in water if ur out of AC. Well that is what i experienced, could be different for b seminole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostonseminole Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I lived there 10 years you get used to it actually. Did you work outside or inside? . I was a kid, I was outside all the time, but nobody complains about the weather, my father worked outside and he loved it, people born and raised there don't really know the difference. I was in the Peru amazon a few years ago and I asked how they deal with the heat and they said they they even notice it. I think people acclimated to their environments. I likely would hate it now!

But I do remember say wow it's cold outside lol I can see how being born into it you fully adapt. That being said like mid winter Arctic cold its still cold to natives but they adapt. I am sure outside work production is down the same as here in Arctic cold, the body can only adapt so much. I do know that the bad smells of summer far outway anything in the winter.

You totally adapt to it and the body will do it with any weather (cold and hot)... that's why come March folks are laughing at me for thinking 45F and sunny is shirtless tanning weather. Spend 150 days a winter up at 3-4,000ft in northern VT where it may not go above zero degrees for weeks, then walk outside in the spring-time when the sun finally comes out and it feels like Florida.

moneypitmike Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok running down here is near impossible. Ill admit that. Holy ****. 6 miles and near heat exhaustion. Could not go further. It's 77/76 right now. OMFG Also can someone tell Wiz I saw several 3 inch diameter palm fronds down from the storm yesterday LOL. Try it at 7:30am! Driving anywhere from New Haven south in CT stinks at most times of the day. If it's not the volume, it's some construction project (The Construction State). Coming from NY during rush hour, I've taken to heading up the Saw Mill to 684 to 84. It's actually not much longer than it would be iif the other routes weren't clogged. Stinks you have to find your way to a Dunkin' Donuts off the the highway. That's the best thing they're doing down there now in redoing the rest stops on the Merritt/Wilbur Cross. If only Massachusetts could build a rest stop on any of their highways. Driving into the Mass is an embarrassment. Most states have nice welcome centers. We have run down shacks with bathrooms consisting of "your waste is composting in the hole below this non-flushing urinal". I think that's the definition of an outhouse. Oh, and they lock the john doors at 7:00p.m. Welcome to the Bay State. I'll get off my soapbox now. 72.4/56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
