The weather

grindy · 08-01-2018, 12:14 PM

It's been over 30, usually around 35, for a while now.
Yesterday it was even 40 somewhere not that far from here.
Our office has some badass air conditioning and I even usually wear a sweater there.
On break I go for a walk with the colleagues and enjoy a bit of heat.
Sleeping at night is tough at times but the ventilator helps.
Overall heat isn't much of a problem for me and I even still manage to work out every day after work.

118°F is pretty ****ing warm mate. I've been in some nasty heat before but that's way over anything I've encountered. Holy ****.

I think the highest I've had to deal with was 120, but it was a dry heat so whatevs no biggie

Relative Humidity plays a big part in being able to have sweat evaporate off your body, so a dry 120F wouldn't be too bad I guess. Sweating in 102F with about 70% humidity was about as much as I could handle, but I was also in it for about 8-9 hours. Hydration is key.

Here, have some charts and graphs (in F):

the morning sucked because it rained last night and the grass is wet = no hooping in the morning. i decided to bitch out and no run too, blamed the weather because itll start raining today and then be sunny. waiting for a long stretch of nice days in the morning where its hot out.

50° in Western Europe. The world record is something like 56° and that was either in Death Valley or Kenya I think. This is staggering tbh.

How's it been in Sweden?

I'll never look at Ron Jeremy porn the same ever again.
