I'll take 120F and dry over 95 and 75% humidity. It's like walking into a physical barrier the air is so thick. We were in Oregon last week, and it was 46 one of the mornings, and topped out at 78. Not everywhere in the U.S. is a shithole ;)

How about you go back to where you came from with that socialist metric system crap. We do Freedom degrees here, not Communist degrees.
I can translate to simplified units if you want?

Yeeesh. That's fucking hot! I would absolutely not survive that! It got bloody hot when I was camping once and I ended up lying under a truck to get some cool shade!
I guess it's what your used to though. I've camped where it gets pretty chilly at night and that doesn't bother me but a lot of people freak out at ice on the tent in the morning.[/QUOTE ]

I used to watch news-people fry eggs on the sidewalk when I lived in Phoenix.

I have only been to Phoenix once and I got to see cars hydroplaning. Apparently that was their rainfall for the year.

Yeeesh. That's 50°C! I would absolutely not survive that! It hit 40°C when I was camping once and I ended up lying under a truck to get some cool shade!

Amazingly there’s a Native American tribe that still lives in Death Valley. I don’t know how they do it. As bad as Houston is in the summer it’s nothing like the heat I felt there. It was like standing in front of an open convection oven.

Houston does suck in the summer. However it’s nice the rest of the year. Instead of staying inside in winter and being out in the summer like up north you do the opposite. I mean I can grill in January.
