Excessive heat warnings dampening your plans?

hi 3snugglebunnies oh my yes I do not do heat well so its gets super hot like in the 100s I stay in and turn on the air conditioner as well. so fat our highest were a few afternoons in the 90s but its been coooler than usual here in Southern California which usually means we will have super hot spell toward the end of July with temps on101 102 and so on and muggy . so far its been well' perfect here.outside of a lot of overcast grey mornings that is but not really cold jus t 65 to 70.

I work very early morning hours and I am glad, because of all that heat. I did nothing on Independence Day, partly due to the heat, partly due to work schedule. I am with you on that company picnic...if there is no shade I would not be inclined to go. Even the shaded tent is likely to be hot and steamy. I imagine the kids would have fun anyway but they could easily get overheated.

It's been that way here, too, until last night when it finally rained and cooled things down. I keep reminding myself that people have lived through heat like this for many years without air conditioning, so I go out and try to do things, then I run back to the house whimpering and turn on the air conditioner. There's an arts festival I really want to go to the last weekend of this month, but if it's this hot, my visit will be short!

Oh good, myLot is "up" once again. Storm is still taking a toll, it seems, it was down when I first tried to reply. Yes, the heat affects my activities! I hate the heat. I can stand any amount of cold but heat drives me crazy, almost literally. Did you know that in Phoenix murders doubled when the temp went over 100°? They did that study about ten years ago and I truly believe it. Heat is awful. No wonder hell is supposed to hot! I stay inside. I don't know why people don't cancel outdoor activities when the heat gets bad like this. It's 100° here right now at 4pm. I just went to the library--books are more important to me than momentary discomfort!--and my car said it was 105° which must be the road temp. Yech!!

The extreme heat that we had been going through during the last few weeks has changed our plans to a certain extent, but I will not say that it has really put a damper on our plans. For example, for the 4th of July celebration last week, we went to the parade as we always do, however, after the parade was over, instead of walking around the festival, we went and hopped into a fountain too cool off a little bit before walking back to the car.

Wow, that definitely doesn't make being outside fun. I'm in South Florida and I know it gets pretty hot and humid here and I usually don't like being outside unless I'm in the pool. Luckily, we don't have extreme heat warnings like where you're from. My boyfriend is in boot camp right now in Oklahoma and I sometimes check the weather there. A few times I've seen they had heat warnings and to not do strenuous activity outside. Well, it kinda stinks because that's basically what boot camp is, they're always doing physical things and most of the time it's outdoors. I try not to worry and I hope that everyone is taken care of while it's hot. I know that for me, when it's hot outside, I'd rather be indoors doing something else lol

funny but i have been spiking a fever for about a week so when everyone else is sweltering, i am fairly comfortable. today, my co-worker said she wishes that was sick. i don't know the cause and i have been on antibiotics twice in the same amount of months. whiles its not fun being sick, i am glad its now rather than the winter!

to me, heat is just as bad, if not worse than the excessive cold. at least if you are cold you can dress for it, build a fire, get close to someone, etc. when you are that hot, there is nothing that you can do about it. i am glad i live in a place that doesn't get that hot. i just can stand heat. yes, it does damper my outdoor activities.
