Tyger Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 So, the last 2 weeks here, have had high temps, like in the high 90's, but then the heat indexes make it even worse with up to 110 temps!! It's been ridiculous!! I've put tinfoil on the majority of the windows to keep the heat out, and the house is dark because of it (I hate a dark house, but I hate hate hate the high electric bill even more). Just taking the dogs out makes me (or anyone) sweat like crazy. It sucks. I do keep a big bowl of water outside for all of the animals. How's the weather/heat where you are?

Members square Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Many years, we will have had temps approaching 100 F and high humidity by this time in the summer. This year has been relatively mild so far. It's been pretty soupy for the past week, just not in the high 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members luv2eatthepeach2 Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Being from the Midwest, or Northeast, whatever you consider, I've always said, "I'd rather sweat than shovel". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RC4BLUE Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 For those living in the southern states I get it. For me give me the heat. It is much better than 4 feet of snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members eye4eye69 Posted July 14, 2016 Members Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Hot here in TN too - luckily I have AC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I like heat, a dry heat though. It's going on about a month of this ridiculous weather! First we had rains that Noah could understand, and now this! Thankfully, since it's been so hot, any of the puddles or small areas that mosquitos usually breed in are dried up, so they haven't really been that bad. Red wasps, however, are bad this year. Those red bastards are mean as hell! They'll sting you for just being in their flight path! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Review Team l8niter Posted July 15, 2016 Review Team Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I think mother nature is playing with us here. One day 90s and high humidity the next 2 days 70s and dry with a forecast of hot and sticky weather most of next week, I don't like the heat and wenwitch wants to move back to Texas in a couple years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Review Team l8niter Posted July 18, 2016 Review Team Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Well WenWitch is from Texas but I'm from gods country the great state of Maine so the heat would be tough on me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 l8nighter, I'm from Maine too. When I first moved down here, I lived near Austin. It's a much dryer heat there, and enjoyed thawing out. Here in East TX, I hate hate hate it!! I use to do so much outside. Now, the humidity here makes that near impossible due to my asthma. It's insane. The only reason I stay in this area is because i don't want to give my ex husband an excuse not to see his daughter. If he moves to Galveston, all bets and considerations are off!!! This is ridiculous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
