Ha Ha, now you know what it is like!
« on: July 21, 2011, 09:25:04 PM »

It's 112 degrees at my house right now.  Dew points are pretty low right now though, only in the mid 50s.

It is like this all summer long.  Now I have to watch the news with a bunch of pansies in the midwest complaining about the oppressively hot weather.  If any of you got to work outside in the heat wave this week, just know that we deal with that type of heat everyday! 

You'll understand when I say it takes twice as many people twice as long to get anything done in our heat.  You burn your hands while wrapping cables at the end of the show, you get cracks in road cases, your cables have the sheathing strech and contract....All in all it is totally different than typical 85-90 degree weather with humidity.

106°F today at 4pm, I didn't look at the heat index.  We've got another week or more before we get a 3 day break, then back to more of this. The central plains will see above-average temps until mid-September.

Because it's summer.... In six months everybody will be complaining about the cold again.

Yesterday: 98 with humidity around 90%

Today and through the weekend: more of the same

Heat index running between 115 and 120 every day this week.

Kinda makes it hard to breathe outside with all of that humidity!

Stay safe and hydrated out there guys.
