Damn weather. Is anyone else tired of this?

@WanderingHelplessly I can deal with the cold much easier than I can the heat it's very difficult to cool down it's a lot easier to warm up.

@Gibbon I understand that

@lissah yeah, I know you guys never got a break. We did. It dropped into the fifties overnight for almost a week. Now we got three days of heat coming back at us.

@Gibbon we had 25 days of over 100 °. Yeah it will probably be awhile before we turn the air off.

@lissah The airstream that could have given you relief got trapped by the Appalachian Mountains on the east. We've had heat cycles all summer, but nothing rock steady like you experienced.

@FreddieUK I have a vague memory of box fans in the windows. Honestly, I don't know how you guys have gone so many years without. I don't think it's even a luxury. I think it's an everyday necessity in the summertime. It's always been my experience. It's much easier to get warm than it is to get cool

@Gibbon We've managed, because extreme heat has been infrequent and short-lived until 2002. Since then, it's become more sustained and records are being broken frequently.

@FreddieUK well, I'm in Maryland, central east coast, we've had temperatures in the high 80s to the 100s, even back then when I was in high school, the only thing that's different now is the duration of the heat wave, the upper temperatures really haven't changed, what has changed is that the cold spells are not as steep as they used to be in the winter time. We had a freakish eight to ten day below freezing cold spell this winter with snow. That was a rare occasion and the snow turned into solid ice. It was about eight inches thick.
