What kind of temps have you been getting and what are you doing to handle it?

It isn't really that much hotter than normal here. The thing that makes it bad is we are still not getting the rain we usually get.

95 real degrees, 111 heat stress. It’s like a steam bath. The stiff breeze makes me think I’m in a convection oven.

Pretty sure I saw Satan at the convenience store, sucking on a Slurpee. smile

What a nice morning, and day today
60 degrees at 5:30AM, now its 80 degrees, and partly cloudy and low humidity.
A welcome difference from the last few days of 95+/- and 80%+ humidity.

Last week it was tough on inspections. 1 Big "Vanilla Box", just shy of 1 mil sq ft., conduits in slab, pre-pour, with 95% closed up; like an oven. then catch up with my two part time guys at a 17 bldg apartment complex to complete roughs on two bldgs.

I tried to stay in the office as much as I could.

I know it's part of my job, but I'm not complaining.

I think 80 is OK if you can stay out of the sun and there is a nice breeze. I caught a little chill getting out of the pool last night.

What's your Pool Temperature?

Pool is cruising about 86-87 and the air was 80. Going to the beach is actually hotter. I will have the real number Monday but our sea temperature has been 88 at Ft Myers Beach. Some of the flats in Florida bay are over 100 but that is shallow stagnant water.

We've got a Timeshare in Orlando a block away from Seaworld. We used to go down during President's Week (February) which was great weather for us 'Northerners', but somehow in recent years it's been July - August. It seems the Pool is always in the 90s, not much difference from the Air Temp, so I would always go in the Hot Tub first so the Pool would feel Refreshing.

I don't do anything but try to keep my hot tub blue in the summer. That is a winter thing and even then, only on cold nights. If it wasn't already here I probably wouldn't have it. I put it in years before the pool.

100°-101°F with 11% humidity, temps are supposed to drop Tuesday to the low nineties & be cooler for a while but July & August are just plain hot in the Sacramento Valley.
