We're having a red-letter day here in NYC: it'll reach 92, but so far the humidity is only 45% instead of its usual infinity. Of course, in direct sun it's more like 250 degrees, and my apartment building has now soaked up enough heat to last through the next five winters, but hey, you take what you can get. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH mowed yesterday in 97 or 98 degree heat with 55% humidity. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Today in tropical Wellington, Noo Zealand, it is 9C (48F) on the thermometer. But with a southerly gale, coming straight up from the South Pole, the wind chill factor makes it *much* colder. And with the house repairs we have going on, and not having a hall floor, and some bits of wall missing the lining, even in the house it's only 13C (55F). Off to get some ginger tea and turn a heater on <teeth chattering>.
