We have a dehumidifier but it heats things up and the outside in summer is humid...so we are dehumidifying the outside and that is inefficient . The air conditioner is a cool dehumidifier.
Up in the South Bay, it got up to 100 yesterday. Much cooler today, but will be up in the 100's again this coming weekend.
It is good to be by a cool water ocean. We have the Japanese Current coming down from Alaska. No hurricanes or typhoons. Rarely what passes for a tornado, or a water spout and hardly ever a Sharknado. Warm waters may be nicer swimming and better fishing but, y'got . . . The desert by the sea is the place to be
Maybe you should change plans. Camping in 103F is much worse, more roughing it than staying home at 103F
Well....I did go camping after all, and I got there late afternoon Saturday when it calmed down to 103 (at 6pm). At 3pm, it was 112!
Horse and water. What can one do. Humid and stale air here. People must have planned to escape the heat for Labor Day days ago. And found beaches overcast. We need a breath of "fresh air".
We had the hottest and smokiest summer on record here in Calgary, forest fires in the mountains and prairie fires to the east. Things have cooled down and we had our first frost a couple nights ago. I'm back feeding birds along the river and slowly getting my yard ready for winter.
Calgary. I thought Winter started August 1 for you guys. Y'know 2 seasons. July and Winter. Pretty flowers. Do you grow any edibles? Not just for the birds I mean. I am going to have my Mexican prepare my veggie boxes and area for a winter growth of spinach, lettuce and sweet shelling peas. Probably plant around late November. This is Alberta, isn't that near you?
Yes, a few hundred miles north. We are an oil giant up here. And the great thing is technology is making extraction up there cleaner and cleaner. Now about you, L.A And then there's your Detroit
Our weather can't make up it's mind, we have had beautiful days and nights in the low sixties at night now we are having some summer hot and humid days.
Yes, Alberta Tar Sands operations look sterile. So very clean And you guys claim to speak English. Moi r > g
Today was warm, much warmer than usual, it was a cloudless day, until around 2/3pm, when all of a sudden - the sky went red on me. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...nomenon-seen-across-england-caused-hurricane/ It was weird... Some of the strangest cloud formations I've seen, plus it was little unnerving, wondering what was going on outside and then looking up at the sky after class. Even the street lights was on, I was like 'what?' For some reason, it reminded me of that movie Beetlejuice ( 1988 ), looking out of the window from class this afternoon.
