I always get a chuckle from you northern dwellers complaining about the
heat. I'm in Texas, and I can tell you for sure if it weren't for air
conditioning this state would still be a vast wasteland. The entire American
South for that matter would be vastly different without the omnipresence of
air conditioning.
As I write this, the time is half past midnight. The air temperature is 87
F. and the relative humidity is 55%. The high temperature today was 100.
This is fairly typical for this time of year - it's been like this for the
last few weeks. In August it gets hotter. I remember last Labor Day (first
Monday in September for the non-U.S.)sitting outside and hearing the
temperature reported at 112! By October, though, the weather will be
absolutely, achingly exquisite. Sometimes I think the only reason I stay is
for October.
By the way, how warm is 30 C? I am metric illiterate.
