They'd beens saying that we were gonna have a high of 100 today, but weather.com says only 90. Oh yea.

All I can say is that until this May, I lived an hour from Lake Michigan. Now it's 15 minutes. I'm likin' that.

I'd rather have 50 degrees year round than this in the summer and 20 in the winter. Anything between 50 & 70 is fine.

This just blows.

Also, we've got like humidity out the wazoo. I swear it's like I'm walking through a lake right now.

And if I can complain a little more, I live in a house w/ no AC and 1 fan. So just leave me to my misery.

All I can say is that 90+ heat w/ the humidity is something that drives me crazy.

I can't wait for january when its -10 and -30 with the wind chill

I much prefer Heat over Cold. its the humidity that gets you. its could be 100+ degrees, and without humidity, you adapt to the heat within a few minutes. its the liquid-saturated air that kills.

cant say im looking forward to -30 wind chill though...

It might be that the humidity is the real kicker - everyone that's been to uberdry phoenix seems to think so, but here in MI there's no such thing as heat w/o humidity. The only heat I know is sticky, wet heat. And while I'm not a fan of the cold, I much much much prefer cold MI winters to hot MI summers. I could just do with less snow. If there was no snow, I wouldn't mind the cold. Heck, I don't even frickin' wear anything but shorts until the temp hits below 40.

The other thing is, I sweat like nobody's business. Once it hits 60-70 degrees in MI, I'll sweat just walking, even if the sun isn't out. Once it hits 80, i'll sweat standing still, even if the sun isn't out.

I've been freakin' snowtubing shirtless and I didn't get cold. I'll take that over 75+ weather anyday.

Well for me, since I am on vacation, 5-10 miles from the FL/GA border, in GA, it's been in the 80s and 90s here. Yes it's been hot, but nothing a cold beer won't cover. If not that, then a dip in the pool will definately cool ya off.

Yesterday's ride/drive in a Prowler was very refreshing as well. I got pics of the car, just have to pull them off my camera, which I will do that when I get home.

It's been great here :D
