Just wait for the next 15 years as American governments blissfully deny global warming, until it gets to the point where your nights are hotter than your days.

 

Actually, this year has been a lot milder than any in recent memory for us idiots in the desert. Sure, it has been over 100 for damn near every day since Christmas, but the humidity has been pretty non-exisetent.

The monsoon rains that normally come in the afternoon have so far been coming late, late at night or early in the morning. Since the strorms are really the only time the humidity gets above 25%, and they have been happening while I was asleep, I have really hardly noticed the heat at all this summer.

See, so I am happy that when it is 114 outside, it actually feels like 114.

I really do feel for people in other parts of the country though, especially on the east coast, since air conditioning is extremely rare in homes there. I spent one summer in Missouri, and got to see what it really feels like to be in temperatures in the mid 90s with high humidity and no air conditioning, I will take a dry 114 any day. I guess it's like everyone says "it's not the heat, it's the humidity". I never really believed that though, cause if it was true, you could start a fire with a wet rag instead of matches.

 

It's not that I am so picky everytime, but since I'm the lucky user of the non-Farenheit system I must make it straight - 100F is the temperature of healthy human body, which is 36.6 C. 38C is a first sign of fever.
