It's so hot that this happened (pip)

[textbookcase]

This happened to a sidewalk in my town yesterday. It was 114 degrees, the first really hot day of the year. Today it will be 117/118

[greenlight]

118 degrees?!

Godspeed.

It's really not! It gets pretty humid here, we are surrounded by irrigated fields and on the Colorado River. Right now it's not very humid but August is killer. 100-110 I can handle (its over 100 from may-oct/Nov) but anything over 110 is the literal worst.

It was 90° and humid here last week and I sweat just looking outside. I literally can't imagine over 100° & humid,

I think I'd die and melt into the ground like the Wicked Witch.

P and I cooked an egg on the ground for fun yesterday.

We are going to do that for the kids at work in a few weeks!

Bake cookies in the car too! 

The news always does that here and I always want to try it.

I'd rather be too frickin' cold rather than too frickin' hot. 118? Oy.

We've done it! It makes the car smell amazing, too. Lol

You live in actual hell.

I'm sorry you live in the Hellmouth.

I think being able to shrug off temperatures from 100-110 is some kind of super power.

I about died hiking in the desert back in April when it was "only" like 95. I can't imagine living in 110+ on the regular.

[hisno1girl]

I would burst into flames like a vampire.

My nap rents were just complaining about the Tucson heat.

This is how my friend in construction heats his lunch. Take it out of the cooler at 11, place on dash, hot food at noon. Pro tip: Do Not attempt with a pop top can of spaghetti-os. It will explode all over your car when you just barely pop the top making the entire car look like a horror movie scene and burning your skin.

Sounds like it's time for you to find a new place to live.

Omg

Seriously. I would move (unless you have family there).

Seriously. I'll take the sub-zero temps of ND any day.
