Went to Google Maps and found it. Then went to the satellite view and
zoomed out some. Rather bleak around you. It's understandable with all
the extreme heat.
How do you keep cool?
In the house we are currently in, just A/C. In all our previous homes we've
had A/C, a swamp cooler and a pool. Kind of missing the pool this week.
It is Godforsakenly bleak around here. The only green places are golf
courses, resorts, and little patches of grass in yards people who just moved
I agree that 90+ with high humidity is worse than ~ 90-95 and low humidity.
All I was waying is that no matter how dry the air, 115 degrees is brutal
hot!

With cold I think it is the wind that makes the difference - humidity is not
much of a factor when it gets cold [? I don't think, except for snow and
sleet]. A friend from a Paraguay says they used to lie in the sun and tan
when it was in the 20's - shorts only, when the wind was dead calm. Not
Yes, wind + cold = evil.
To this day, I still don't know how it works with humidity and cold.
I've been told that humidity makes it feel colder, but I have been
told the opposite too. Through all my MN winters, I couldn't figure it
out. I do know, though, that one's skin gets very dry there in

Your skin gets dry, not because you're outside when it's cold, but because
you're inside when it's cold.
Humidity is actually RELATIVE humidity: the percent humidity is relative
to how much water vapor air at a given
Yeah, that is good info. Thanks. I'll read it over a second and third
time. My mind can be slow on the pick up.

Yes, it does. There is a qualitative difference at about 7 to 10F, when the
corners of your mouth and eyes start to ice up. It got down to -24F once
where I lived in Indiana, and walking around outside is quite different from
10F. I drove 65 miles on the interstate that day and my car was

When it gets 60 here, people are reaching for jackets. I was in -28F in IL
in the winter of '78 (I think).
115F can be experienced two ways: either windy (like looking into a blow
dryer on hot/high) or no windy (open the oven door after it's preheated to
450 or so and hold your face there).

When its cold you just have to plan better. At -20 you remember to plug in the
car or you don't go anywhere until it warms up.

Has anyone ever experienced 110 degree heat that wasn't dry and therefore

Sure, visit western Arkansas in August. 105 at 50-70% humidity is HORRIBLE
compared to the desert heat they complain about. I should know, was just in
Death Valley 1.5 weeks ago.

There are degrees of oppressiveness. I'm not a lover of cold temps, but any
time the temperature surpasses 100 degrees equates to misery for me,
regardless of the humidity.

Wait a minute...so you don't mind 90 degrees at 80% humidity? That equates
to about 115 degrees with no humidity.
Having lived in both types of climates, low humidity heat is definitely more
comfortable than humid stuff.

I remember riding a motorcycle in Phoenix summer. The heat would
radiate up off the roadway and raise the temp well over ambient. This
is when you really feel the heat of your engine too.

At the old nuke plant, the turbine building (the building with which the
turbine/generator/pumps/steam piping etc live) gets around 120 to 125

i've never experienced higher than 107. it was a dry heat too. it was very
unpleasant, but still no more so than 90 in georgia.
the coldest i ever experienced was -17F, also in a humid climate. i had to
get the car started and probably spent about 15 minutes working outside in
that weather. i
Believe me, when it gets below about 10F, it doesn't
make any difference.
