Well the heat is on! « on: July 19, 2018, 07:35:23 AM » Author: lightinglover8902
Where I live the temperatures are going to the triple digits this weekend in Southeast Texas. Then some rain by next week, which is some relief.

I don't consider it to be 'hot' until its above 90-F (32-C) But that said, where there usually isn't the issue of humidity...below 20% is pretty common.

I'm half African American, half Barbadian. So I'm black. During the winter months, my skin appears lighter... but during the summer months, my skin appears darker, (trust me, I don't need even the slightest tan) and very oily. Taking a shower does help with reducing the oil though, but only for so long.

My experience with humidity: Here, in central Europe, when it reaches 30degC, it becomes unbearable, even when you are here long time (so no temperature shock from traveling from far away). But when I've visited Phoenix and in the Tucson area in the middle of August (about two years ago), where temperatures above 40degC were most of the day even in the shadows, (except the first hour when leaving the airport building) I could handle that pretty well (way better than the 28degC at home). And my wife said the same... I guess the only, but the main difference was, the humidity at my home uses to be in the 40..50% range, but in the Arizona desert it was just few percent... Now it uses to be altering between about 25degC rainy day vs 30degC sunny day...

As maintenance, we work outside most of the year, and I tan up nice now, (I used to burn as a kid in summer), but it's been, sometimes 34 here over the last four weeks, and that a bit much!  , I've had the best job this week though, painting our call center, (with FULL air conditioning),.... Result!

Quote from: Mercurylamps on July 22, 2018, 06:05:52 AM Funny seeing people saying that 30C and above is hot. It's normal to get days in Australia that is 40C+  Well, I was saying 30degC in central Europe is too hot to be comfortably bearable, but 40+degC in Arizona deserts is still pretty fine. The difference is the humidity, or better ultimately the dew point. In Arizona it was still lower, so it wasnt feeling that hot as the 10degC lower temperature at home. However I can not imagine Japan these days, with 40degC at 80+% or so (according to some news reports). That sounds really deadly to me...
