  • It's been up to 100 this week, plus the heat index, so it feels like the 110's.  When I have had to be outside, I just drink lots of water, then take a cold shower.  We have been in the pool too, but only in the evening; during the day, even the pool is miserable!  Tryng to stay inside is the best thing for now :).

  • Augh, I just dealt with the heat.  It just broke here so I think it was 70s today and beautiful (I'll never really know - really busy at work).  I am here on business and will be flying back to the east coast where the heat is there now!

    I hate you.  LOL.  It was 101 here today, 117 with heat index, and humid as crap.  All I can do is lay inside reveling in the AC.  Ours was broken until yesterday and it was absolutely miserable.  Thank God for the AC repair man! :-)

    I think we hit 78 today. All in all, a good day. This weekend is going to be hell though-88 tomorrow and 90 Sunday! I have to find some way to get our A/C window unit in.

    I was wearing wool socks throughout June this year, if that helps any!

    I'm in this area too. It's horrible out there. We've had a heat advisory for a week and they just keep extending it. It was supposed to end Friday and then today and now tomorrow at 7pm. Monday is supposed to be in the high 80s and I can't wait.

    There's nothing that you can do except stay inside and drink plenty of water. There's a big festival here this weekend and you couldn't pay me to walk around outside.

  • 100's and miserable. I carry water with me all the time to try to stay cool.

  • It's terrible in Texas. Nothing but 100+ temps and the forecast does not change! I manage by working in an air-conditioned "bat cave" of sorts...I take breaks from the A/C for some sunlight, and on my off days in the early morning I go running and pretend I'm in a sauna at some awesome spa all followed by a cold shower. Add a lot of complaining, and that's how I cope.

  • Last week was hot and humid, but it's summer--that's not earth shattering. Today is warm and kind of humid, I think mid-80s and sunny. Very pleasant. I'm not doing anything special to avoid the heat. Again, it's summer. To be expected.
  • Ungodly hot.  Low 100s with the heat index in the 120s-130s.  Ridiculously humid.  I drank water like a fish while working at the Farmer's Market on Saturday, and still ended up spending the rest of the day sleeping off a migraine.  It's just too darn hot to do ANYTHING.

  • Think it's now day 29 of over 100 deg here in Dallas.  Not pleasant and all I want to do is stay inside.  even in the middle of the night it is in the 90's!
