I'm melting.
OMG the last few days its been a high of 95 here!!! I'm melting. I live in giant cinder block building that has no AC. I think I'm living in an easy bake oven.
Heat wave SUCKS!!
Anyone else suffering? Or do you all have the pleasure of AC. Losers.
There’s a promise I need you to make
While I’m gone you take care of the love
And I’ll deal with the hate.
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight

It was hot here recently..I complained during a phone call to my son about how hot wearing a vest was in that weather.
He called me a "Nancy". It was 130 and humid near the Euphrates. He was wearing full fatigues, body armor, and gear. Game set and match.
Kinda puts it in perspective.

It's currently 89 outside, but I'm sitting here with the central air on. Every once in awhile I have to go outside and check the clothes on the line to see if they are dry yet and start sweating immediately, but than I come back to the AC
But if it makes you feel any better I don't have AC in my car and that really sucks!

OK, so maybe I WONT gripe about low 90s with heat index near 100. That DOES put things in perspective!

I have full respect for your son taco,
i can imagine how hot it is.
i used to be on the fire department, 90 degrees, and someone wants to burn thier house down.
thats hot, however your son doesnt have the luxury of taking his gear off, and going home to the ac awaiting.
tell him we all said hello, and be safe, from LEF....YEAH, IM THE BERRIES, AND CHERRIES IN YOUR REAR VIEW MIRROR.

It's been pretty cool here for the summer, not over about 85. But a few months ago we had temps. up in the 100's. But, since it's high desert by 3:00 AM you have to pull a blanket up. What's central AC? We have fans. But they're electric.

Central Air, is A/C that you can turn on by using your thermostat and the air comes out the vents in your house as opposed to a window unit. The unit is outside the house. Originally Posted by SaraJ

It gets up to 100-115 here... But I wouldn't know what that feels like, because I stay inside my nice, 70 degree house with central air
