Why is it so fricking brutally hot here?!?!?!

Bwahaha, I think it's hot everywhere.

Although I'm used to the heat, because I'm from Tennessee. But I honestly did not expect it to be hot here in PA as well. It sucks when you don't have air conditioning in the place that you live in.. or anywhere! My A/C unit isn't working right in the truck that I drive... so I'm steadily waiting...

 

I'm in Texas and it's hot here too! I started my day in Memphis, TN and it was also hot there. I guess everywhere is cooking right now!

 

It gets up to 88 in Michigan? That's about what it was here, like 30 degrees of latitude farther south!

 

Most people like the cold better.

It's easier to keep warm when it's cold than it is to keep cool when it's hot.

I'd like to live around Palm Springs CA because it's surreal, with a 10,000 ft. mountain sitting behind these desert cities, and it's not that expensive, but I don't think I could do the lengthy summer season.

 

Haha well if you ever come to Texas you'll see that in August we have weeks in triple digits every day. Last year it was 107 a LOT. I'd love for it to be 80 out.

 

When I was in TX within the past month, outside air temperature was 130. That's probably by far the hottest I've experienced, and that was around the Dallas area. At that time it seemed like the rain was going all around Texas, but not through it!

 

Oh gosh I remember my freshman year of college there was a heatwave of 90+ degrees Fahrenheit, and we likewise were in antiquated dorms with no air conditioning.

(And yes, it's true that Summer heat arrives in stereotypically "cold" Northern states, I went to college up in Massachusetts)

But so anyway basically we just used fans to cool things off the best we could, one of those dual fan window units, and then tower fans around the room.

Make sure otherwise that the shades are drawn to keep as much sunlight out as possible.

If you have a freezer, you could put an ice pack on your head to cool you off, and then switch off with another ice pack in the freezer to always keep one cold. (If you only have a refrigerator, you could just use like cold water or Gatorade bottles)

If it gets too hot though, you should be able to go hang out in like a campus center or something that is air conditioned?

 

Be glad you don't live in a tropical region.

 

Heh, that idea has crossed my mind in situations like this before, but sadly it wouldn't work; unfortunately I don't think a fridge would be strong enough to cool off the outside air, instead the heat will enter and warm up the inside of the fridge and make things go stale.

 

Third snowiest place in america, F*cking 90's

 

Im so jealous of all of you guys with your below triple digit weather. In AZ we're lucky to have a day below 100 during summer. At times it get up to 110 or higher! And don't get me started if its humid.

 

yeah lol , asif thats even hot

 

Don't move to Georgia then lol.

 

We've had over 90 degree weather almost every day the last few days, and 80 degrees last week, too. The humidity is nearly tropical and it feels much hotter than it actually is (at some points in the last few days it's felt like over 100 degrees outside).

It's horrible and I really want the winter to come back because it's honestly better than this.

 

It's been high 90s low 100s where I live in California for what feels like forever! I don't have air conditioning in my car so I avoid errands during the day...

 

I'm in San Francisco, CA, and it's always freezing here.

 

That's why you live by the arctic circle. Long cold winters to enjoy skiing and short days a.k.a. no sunshine after 2 pm. Can't get any cozier. During summer, the sun never sets. It's amazing.
