Can always put on more clothes, but can’t undress more than naked…

Go swimming or wear light cotton.
I do. But in the next heatwave the local lake water might reach 38°C or water became so scarce from the drought…: now what?
I love summer.
I’d rather have 90° than 9°.
I like having daylight past 4pm.
I like seeing blue skies and the sun.
I like being able to go outside without bundling up under five layers, and still being cold.
I like not having to shovel my walks, snowblower my drive, scrape off my car, etc.
I like swimming.
I like seeing green trees, colorful flowers , bumblebees, and nature.
I like taking my kid to the park so he can ride his skateboard.
I like going to the beach.Fuck winter, man.
Right?
I’m done with summer. Looking forward to that first early morning air nip with a dusting of frost on the ferns, presaging the arrival of snow.Unfortunately for us, the best times of the year are about half a month in the spring and half a month in the fall
Summer just started (here in the northern hemisphere). I’m soaking up every last bit of warmth in hopes it lasts until it comes around again. (It never does.)
Summer used to be hot but it also used to be perfectly fine to sit in the shade and feel fine. Nowadays the temps even in the shade are over 30-35°.
°C
Yeah it’s obviously not Kelvin or whatever mental illness the US uses.
Not everyone on the Internet knows that different temperature scales other than their home country standard exists unfortunately…
Just preventing the predictable “bUt tHaT’s ACtUAlLy arOunD FrEEzIng” comments.
Prefer snow to ticks and mosquitoes ngl.
There’s no limit to how many layers I can wear in winter, but there’s a limit to how many I can take off in the summer. Simple as
Love the summer. I love my skin not feeling cold as balls as soon as I step outside. Love not taking a cold ass shower in the morning before work. Love the sun being out later into the evening. Love doing outdoor shit. Swimming. Love the warm nights. Hanging out naked.
Winter is the sad time.
Why do you take cold showers in the winter? That seems like a poor personal choice if you don’t enjoy the cold
No cold seeping so deeply into my bones that it lodges itself there to radiate outward through my whole body so I can barely move.
No aching dryness making it almost impossible to breathe.
I know many aren’t built for heat but cold causes me near-debilitating pain and drains my soul of life. I’ll enjoy the warmth and sun while it lasts.
My wife when I show her this:
Come visit me in south Louisiana.
I had family in Nola, I’m good lmao. Everyone thinks Southerners are dramatic or exaggerating, but the Southern States hands-down have the worst climate in the country thanks to the humidity and heat mixture.
Especially if you’re away from the cost, it’s all the worst parts of tropical temperatures without an ounce of the good.
The high right now is 99, the feels like is 109, and having just come inside, there’s just enough breeze right now to piss you off rather than cool you. We have an extreme heat warning from now until the fuckin 3rd, and a lot of us have zero legal protection from working outside in this God forsaken heat.
I’ve been hearing of some local construction crews threatening the bosses if they have to go outside in this heat, and I know many people in my industry are currently quitting because our northern us based corporate overlords decided this week to get a stick up their ass about uniforms, insisting upon heavy ass cargo pants, a thick cotton undershirt, an even thicker polo, and the most unnecessarily heavy duty safety vest. My crew of 10 lost 2 people this week because they refused to go out in this bullshit wearing all that. The rest of us also refused, but corporate made an example out of them.
That being said, Louisiana is still worse. And I’d argue most of Alabama.
<Laughs in Willamette Valley.>
I’ve been there in August, and it and the rest of the PNW is uncomfortable in Summer. But as someone from Mississippi, nowhere in the US has the heat and humidity mixture that the Gulf States do.
From June to September, it feels like you’re breathing in a full sauna when you step outside. You never cool off, you just learn to tolerate always being wet and wondering if it’s sweat or moisture in the air that condensed on your skin
I’m typing this from an inflatable pool in my back yard. The water bill is going to be outrageous but that’s a small price to pay to be able to go outside.
The water here comes out super cold from the hose too, that sounds like a fantastic way to keep cool!
How’s the humidity?
Houstonian here. Let’s just say I’m… moist.
In the winter months it’s humid. In the summer the Willamette Valley isn’t very humid. Currently it’s 46% humidity as I type this.
It’s mid 80s here right now and 100° so I don’t wanna hear it lmao
Today the high was 67 and it will top out in the low 80s through the next week.
Na I can barely handle the light purple areas. I’d rather not die.
People do die
The only season I can enjoy outside is Fall. Summer is too hot, Winter is too cold, and I get allergies in the Spring.
Fall is perfect.
I love summer, but you have to do it right. Going to the store and walking across a hot blacktop parking lot is asking for a bad time.
Hanging out in a park, going for hike, swimming, hitting the beach, more daylight hours, ice cream, grilling and admiring the greenery. That’s peak life on Earth 🌎🌍
Winter makes my lupus act up terribly and I can hardly function. Summer heat nowakes my heart condition act up and I can hardly function. There’s a period of like 2 weeks in the spring and fall that are perfect
Rather have 95 and humid than a negative wind chill every single time.
90+ and humid is the worst type of environment this planet has to offer. Everything else, from Death Valley to the center of Antarctica, is infinitely better.
We should have switched places the last week then. I had 91°F and high humidity in my BEDROOM for the whole week. I would have rather camped at freezing temperatures than experience this
Here in Australia I’m hosting a snow trip next week… there is still no snow in the mountains where we’re goin
Also f summer. Hayfever and bushfires suck
