On a serious note...........our heat index here was 99 today, and I have to be careful when I go outside, because the meds I'm on DO NOT like the heat. Honestly, I get overly exhausted quickly, and dehydrated as well. So, whatever I have to do outside, I do before 10AM.....after that, it's the couch, a nice fresh cup of coffee and my PS3. :)

I was wondering earlier why 90 or even 80 and up feels hot to us since our body temperature is 98.6. :cool:

For me, I think, it isn't so much the air temperature, it is the humidity............wow, that kills me. It can be so oppressive. Maybe that is why 80 or 90 can feel so hot? On a very humid day?

My internal temperature is 97.6. I'm running a little on the cold side.
I prefer a bit cool better than too hot... if it gets a little chilly you can always put a sweater on, but if it gets too hot, after a certain point there is not much you can do for relief but sit near a fan or in an air conditioned room or stay in the water/pool/lake/river/ocean/tub of icy water LOL. I always have a fan going at home to keep the air moving :D

Southern Ontario, where I was born and raised, had terribly high humidity in the simmer, so much so that on a "bad" day from the top of the CN Tower you could not see very many blocks. Living on the west coast is better but it seems to be getting progressively more humid in the summer here :p

I would think the ocean breeze would really help with the humidity, but, shoot, what do I know? I live in Bama, on a mountain top. Hey, at least the humidity on top of the mountain ain't what it is in the valley below! :)

You guys are all complaining about the heat I wish I could join in but I think just might have put another blanket on burrr... and don't post pictures of snow or fans it's making me feel cold.
