      I'm from Jackson, MS. Not a lot of triple digit weather coming up there and rarely below freezing, but when it's hot it feels like you're walking through hot soup thanks to the humidity.

      I lived in Minneapolis for 10 years and for a significant part of the year it's below freezing. Miserable as the weather is there, I think I'd take that over Mississippi.

      Denver is pretty great but this is shaping up to be a really hot summer. 95 degrees and up indeed does suck even in this dry climate. I'm grateful it's not humid here or it'd be nigh unbearable.

      Think it, be it.

        I am so flipping British…I can't handle the heat if I'm working or have stuff to do. If I'm not working, then not so bad. That said, I spend my time moaning about how I can't stand the hot, dry weather...last Friday I felt a few spots of rain and said to myself 'oh for fuck's sake'.

        I am one of those that prefer dry heat to humidity. The dry heat of an NYC summer is better than the humidity of Singapore's monsoon season and I've done both. It's better by the coast too. There is usually a breeze.

        What I don't get though is these little pricks that wear their shorts, with a black hoodie on with the hood up...bad man dem

              @bryaneidins70  my new Wabash and 98% of the rest of my IH wardrobe!

              We have a threenager and he is being a little shite in the name of 'developmental milestones'. There is no escaping the heat with him. I sat in an air conditioned soft play for 4 hrs yesterday drinking coffee and talking crap to mums just to escape the burn…There were a couple of complaints that I'd stripped of to my scants but not as many as I'd anticipated  😉

                I was in Utah with my family for a funeral during May, and the temperature was probably in the 30s (celsius) / 90s (fahrenheit).

                Most of my family live in the north of England, where it doesn't get that hot, and they were suffering from the heat. Being acclimatised to Australian summers, I found it quite pleasant. 😃

                  I'm neither pasty nor ginger. Just a Belgian lout.

                  My favourite weather is 10-12C° and clouded with 5C° nights so I don't have to use any heating and it's a pleasant 18C° indoors. Imagine how I deal with 30+ C° weather and 20+ C° nights…

                    My extended family are all gathered in Spain where the temps are in the low 30C’s every day. I’ve been doing this a couple of times a year all my life so I get used to it quick.

                    I like the same things Seul likes for my everyday, but holiday warmth I dig. I just do everything slowly and maintain a respectable blood alcohol level which helps to drastically reduce the number of fucks given to somewhere very close to none. Heat in big cities or the UK or Norway I tolerate badly.

                    Back to the fam, my oldest child lives in Australia and thinks Spain is heaven by comparison. The same for my brother and his wife who live in Brooklyn and find the dry Spanish heat a considerable relief from NYC in summer.

                    As far as IH gear goes I wear my IH-814-IND rolled up whenever I’m out and about and the black version when dining out. I have my IH polo shirts for the same, as well as a light chambray or two. IH tee’s in the evening.

                          For the most part, yes….but it's not uncommon to find homes/condos on the California coast without airco...

                          You'll find older homes in Phoenix that only have swamp coolers as well...generally in lower income areas.

                                    In the United States it’s where racism is closeted as opposed to it being out in the open like it is south of New York City.

                                        Depends on location. In Colorado they are far less common.
