My Dad lives in Olympia and he has been complaining about the heat. Usually when I'm in WA I'm complaining that it's too cold to go boating/tubing/water skiing even in the summer.

99% of people in Seattle don't have AC. We typically have no need for it.

Was talking to some girl on Match, and then she told me she had a bunch of different tattoos from her fave bands including Coheed and Cambria.

I thought about going to the Mariners game at 1:40pm, but I decided to stay at home with three fans positioned in front of me.

That's two more fans than would be at the Mariners game!

That sounds great.  I'm a pale ass Irish Catholic walking to work in ARKANSAS.  I should move up North already.

It is damn hot. And I have to walk everywhere for work on site. Went to visit a few places where the cabinets are 140 degrees inside.

Hopefully this is over in a few days. Without the kiddie pool, life would truly suck.

The thermometer on my porch here in Greenlake says it's 100. I walked over to the lake earlier today and went for a swim. It was really nice.

It's been a bizarrely cool and wet summer here. I hate the heat, but at this point I'd take a good ol' fashioned cooker for a day or two, if only to remind me it's summer at all.

It's winter here luckily, although a little too cold to be really nice.

103 in Southworth.

Weather.com says it's 101 here, but it "feels like 100." Well that makes everything better!

We're sleeping in the basement tonight.

I'm one of the rare cases that has AC in the house. We finally turned it on today after the heat from yesterday. I got two 4 year olds that I don't need to have problems with the weather.

One of my good friends bought an AC unit last year for his wife while she was pregnant. They live in Tacoma, or we'd be hanging out at their place.

I couldn't live without aircon - it goes on once ambient temperature hits more than about 25C / 77F.

Fuck humidity indeed - I agree it's worse than heat.  I grew up in Cairns and thoroughly despise humidity as a result.

fuck thats nasty. i grew up in newcastle and now live in Sydney and there's a noticable drop in humidity even over a short distance.

i went to Towsnville over new years in 2006, the humidity was bad not shocking (Singapore was obscene). The best part was it was 32 in Townsville on NY Day, but it was 45 in Sydney :lol

It's hot in Phoenix, but that's just normal in the summer. Are the overnight lows still getting cool though? would hate to think that the low is staying around 85 and you folks don't have AC.

It was 90 at midnight last night. We might get down to 74 around 6am.

I set up some air matresses and sleeping bags for my wife and I in our basement for tonight.

My weather station at home said high of 103.3, last night the low was 68 degrees.

I believe the news stations are saying that 103 is the highest recorded temperature in Seattle since they started keeping records around 1900. Hot.

Weather.com has you guys at about 68-72 degrees in Washington state currently.

Its always hot here in GA in the summer. Hot and muggy. But then again, we all have Air Conditioners for the most part too.

Weather.com puts it at 98. You act like The Weather channel will purposely mislead on temperatures.  ???
Or were you implying that my current temperature post was what I was saying the high would be?

Free market works very well for me thank you :) :smug
