ParticipantRegardless, we in SD County (yes, even those who reside in East County) are fortunate, MM. I was driving thru Las Vegas a week ago today, after spending the night in UT and became drowsy on the road. Luckily, I found an air-conditioned truck stop with a TV room to rest for a couple of hours because it was 117 outside with no shade to be found anywhere. Had I attempted to fall asleep in my (locked) car somewhere, it could have reached up to 160 degrees inside.
Good thing I didn’t have my dog with me on this trip.
LV is HUGE now but I don’t know how that population lives with the incessant, oppressive heat they have to deal with 8-9 months year. Especially the FIH’s/brian’s of the world who grew up on the coast, lol! Perhaps FIH makes several trips per month back to the CA coast during the hot months to get his “fix”?? I don’t blame him.

Actually the average high temperature only exceeds 80 degrees there six months out of the year, and that includes October where it barely gets there. For 90 it’s only four months.
August 15, 2015 at 11:03 AM #788666ParticipantLa Mesa must be a cooler place. Only 91 so far.

So 4-6 months out of the year where I’d want to punch everyone in the face (including myself) whenever I’m outside. I’d be as happy as a pig in shit if it never exceeded 75F. I think I’ll move to Montreal.
English language is overrated anyway — if I lived and died without hearing another word of it, I’d be perfectly happy.

Participant111 where I am right now. Expected to match yesterday’s 117 by the end of the day. yippeeeeeee
August 15, 2015 at 12:04 PM #788670ParticipantNonethless, I’m reserving my usual road trip to see my people in America’s (humid) southwest “heartland” for October. I’m still trying to recover from the two-dozen-plus mosquito bites I got last week just walking around a supposedly “groomed and exterminated `community lake'” at dusk. Yes, I DID have repellent on but it didn’t do me much good 🙁
Besides, I ran out of “Chiggerex” and can’t buy any more here, lol ….

SK, you’re another one of those ex-coastal-dweller brave souls . . . much hardier than me, lol . . .

CoronitaParticipant84 without AC. I give up. Time to turn it on.
Glad I don’t need to wear a helmet outside today without vents/ac….

GuestI’m in Vegas and it’s 72F in my condo.
What global warming?Underground parking is cool and everywhere I need to go is air conditioned.
I remodeled a place in Vegas this summer and all the running around and the sweating have caused me to lose weight. I’m now what I was in college despite all the buffet dinners.
The husky construction workers must be eating 3000 calories a day to be chubby.
August 15, 2015 at 4:59 PM #788674ParticipantFuck the idea of living somewhere where you NEED A/C to be comfortable a significant part of the year with a turbocharged jackhammer.

You’re right. Vegas is more pleasant than people think.
