Basically above my daughters waste was a bright red rash upto her hair line. She is feeling mostly better after a few days of antibiotics. But it was a few days of basically sleeping. I came home from work yesterday to her just passed out on the couch.
@dixiebandit69's situation has me thinking about the time I saw a sundress ( I guess thats what it's called ) in a catalog and bought it for my wife for her birthday. Colorful, it looked like the kinda thing she'd wear. I haven't seen it since she opened it maybe 2-3 years ago now. I've little doubt someone got a REALLY nice dress at the Salvation Army a couple months later. I'd give JJ cash.
That is barely below freezing, pussy. When you get months of that at a time, you just get used to it. Sweater under your jacket, a pair of gloves and you are good to go. I will take the cold over the rain any day.
I think today was my last day skiing for a while. Forecast calls for nearly 50 degree weather with rain this weekend. It's going to nuke the snowpack.
We get that throughout the summer, June through September. The summers are as hot, it’s just the winters are colder. Extended heatwaves are rare.
Literally everyone would die at that temp and humidity. It's above 95 wet bulb, which is fatal to humans.
Yeah, dude is seriously lucky he didn't fall to his death and or get crushed. Just another idiot cosplaying skiing back country like they do in the western US.
We used to do two-a-day football practices in August in south Georgia. We definitely had some 100/90% days and we definitely didn't have anyone die. We used LOTS and LOTS of ice towel buckets, though.
Fuuuuuuuuck that. The hottest I've ever been was doing a garage sale for my grandparents back in 2020. Middle of Florida, September, stuck in a garage with 93* heat and low 90's humidity. I can't imagine 7* hotter and doing football practice.
First time I felt REAL heat was in the summer in New Orleans... that was when I understood why people wore linen shirts. I was a hot mess for days. It wasn't the heat that got me, it was that fucking humidity. I've driven to California in high heat to go racing... where it was 105-110°F in the paddock... and they had misters running to try and keep people cool... and had rules around how long people could be outside of the AC for... but it wasn't as hot feeling as that week in New Orleans.
Yeah, don't tell the southeast blue collar workers they could die in the summer. They've been surviving that shit their whole lives... mostly. You ever cut line thru a pine thicket, staking a new road, for eight hours a day in that heat? The shade is nice, but there is no breeze. That shit will have you hallucinating by afternoon.
Actually? Yes, lol Also, cutting through Kudzu embankments to survey new sanitary sewer mains was THE ACTUAL WORST. August in Sylvania, GA which is below the gnat line, too, so sweating and swatting constantly. Our crew did 4 - 10s, instead of 5 - 8s, so we had Fridays off, which was nice. Usually I just laid in the air conditioner all day on Friday.
That's like every day from July to October. We have "cold" weeks with highs in the 80s, but also hot weeks where it's 100 everyday. Did the same 2 a days rush did and it was like 5am and 7pm to make sure we didn't die. The best though is when you get the raging afternoon thunderstorm for an hour and it zaps the humidity for a few hours. Why we have screened porches.
