Dog Days of Summer

[Guest nzch2010]

Well, it is 5C here with about 33% humidity and roughly 40 earthquakes per day, anybody in Texas want to do a house swap ? One thing about flying during earthquakes is it is like flying in real life turbulance.

Here in Playa Del Rey right near LAX it was around 64 F today, and 57 F tonight. Having grown up in Phoenix, AZ, that is crazy considering it is June. It honestly feels like it is always in the high 50's to the low 70's year round here.

I am just north of Alicante, Spain.It's going to be another hot one today. 42 degC yesterday (108 degF). It is dry heat but thank goodness for the pool - currently 26 degC (79 degF).Trouble is once the sim computers are on in my 'den' it get even warmer - we only have air con in the bedroom so it is the trusty old desk fan I'm afraid - still it does help simulate the wind noise from out side the cabin !

Yeah, about 3 over the 4 mark so far today Simon, what worries me is I am getting use to them. I swear by WD HDD's, been through over 6000 eq's and still going stong.

Midnight and it's still 95 degrees here.You know what the worst part of it is too - going and turning the COLD water faucet on and it still comes out scalding hot - happens through the summer here because the pipes get too hot.

Man, thats not good at all! Hope your fridges still work. West Texas right now, its pretty damn hot but again, im a dry heat guy that thrives when its 105+, anything below 70 is to cold for me.

I don't think we've made it over 95° here yet this year.

You Chch guys are doing it tough I'll say. I'd say come up to Wellington for some respite but then I'm not sure we're any safer!You could move to the centre of Australia I suppose, but then you'd be in the centre of Australia... :(

My friend lived in Tucson a while back and he said that they would turn their hot water heater off in the summer and just use what comes out of the cold faucet... DOH
