Guest Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Flew in this morning to pick up some equipment and it was 70ish when I landed. I don’t care that it’s a dry heat, 108 is brutal. Never thought I would long for Houston weather in August 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer.tv Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 That is unbearably hot to me. The South West of England reached 98 and I couldn’t sleep for about 4 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggie Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Don’t worry. It should be okay when everyone is driving around with battery operated cars in rush hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Nighttime lows around 70 are a bitch though with no central A/C and a bedroom that I'm convinced was designed to retain heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzzzle Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 108 sucks regardless of humidity. 108 *with* humidity is straight ass, though. There were a few days in May or June in New Orleans where it hit ~102-103, and that was awful. You have to try and get everything you need done for the day accomplished by 9am because it's already like fucking 90 out by then. There were giant ass lines at the grocery store and the bank as soon as they opened because people were trying to take care of that shit early. Once it hit noon, no one was trying to do anything. Plus, a hot tip if you have a small/window AC unit: try not to keep the temperature more than 20 degrees cooler than the temperature outside. I live in an old building with like a jerry-rigged central air system that's basically connected to a window unit, and I do not want that shit to break.

Littleronin Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Yeah we got the extreme heat warning here I think last Friday and people about town actually listened for once. currently it is 105 in the shade with a disgusting 10-15mph wind to go along with it.

There's only windows on one side of my apartment so I can't get a crossbreeze without leaving my front door open. Doable when I'm just kicking around at home but kind of a problem at bedtime.

My bedroom even actively retains heat because it's from 1970 when the only real climate control concern in Santa Monica was people not dying of exposure from the ocean winds in January. My apartment doesn't even have a ceiling fan. But it does have this wildly inefficient radiant heat in the bedroom ceiling! And a fireplace! And a bathroom heat lamp!

Jason Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Oh yeah my apartments in DC had both central air AND a fucking ceiling fan in the bedroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillzdadirecta Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 My building is pretty old to and doesn't have central air, but I don't need it. I do have a floor unit air conditioner but I never use it. I rarely have to adjust me heat in my apartment either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

best3444 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 It's 77 right now in Central PA and will only go up to 85 in the late afternoon. I rarely go outside so I don't care. I have central air and I have it set at 67. I sometimes have to wear my fleece when I'm gaming 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
