114 in the sewer

We were at 106 today....in fricken Wisconsin !! Are you kidding me !!

it ain't hot at all, right now at 81526 theres only about 50 yrds of visibilty through the rain. Now i'm gonna have to go it my truck muddy, just washed the thing :evil: 2 inches of dried up road base took 25 bucks out of my pocket the other day...

Well, it was hot (94*-102* according to my XJ's OHC), but the humidity wasn't all that bad in my book, did most of what little driving I did with the windows down:roll:

106* heat index today... tomorrow should top 110*. The air is thick enough you have to cut it with a knife to walk to your car.

They're stickin to the leg and its 9:32 am

:lmao::lmao:

86* feels like 88* 54% Humidity, and 80% chance of rain.

Level 5!!!!! :cry:

It hit 99.

The "heat index" hysteria is BS. Sensationalism. "The temperature is so-and-so but it's going to feel like..." :roll:

People no longer talk about actual temperatures, but instead focus on the heat index because it's a bigger number and more cause for alarm.

May have to make a Slurpee run today since I'm not working, see how bad it is here today then.

Two words: window tint.

I tinted the west facing window in our bedroom with a double layer of heat and uv reflecting residential window tint. Its noticeably cooler in here now. "thumbsup"

We have a big garage. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom above it. The ceiling is insulated but the garage door was just a basic metal door with no insulation. I got 3 sheets 1" foam insulation with a foil layer and a couple of rolls of 20"x25' Reflectix. The garage is a lot cooler and the upstairs rooms are as well.

We got some curtains that block heat and they keep the south facing rooms (which are also above the garage) cooler as well.

I was just happy to cool the garage. :lmao: I can now work in there all day and be comfortable (78 ) when it's 100 degrees outside.

:shock:

Heat index can suck my bung hole. It's bullshit. My thermometer tells me what the temperature is, cause that's what it is! No heat index feeling like it's ten degrees warmer, otherwise, it'd be ten degrees warmer!

And right now in my room, it's kinda warm.

Got a high temp of 103, and felt like 110.

120 one day here, I was fried. I love working outside, but holy hell it is hot out.

Ours hit 115 today! But that is normal here for the most part!:ror: It's this 100% humidity that is killing us!!!!:evil: I read the other day that so far this year there has been over 900 heat records broken here in the US!:shock: Makes you wonder about 2012!
