At 111 degrees and 8% there won't be any sweat visible. It is gone as soon as it hits the air.

no seriously, the first webcast was a great idea, i enjoyed it thoroughly
This thread is interesting. Funny how great minds think alike. I was tempted to tell Jeff this weekend that in keeping with the theme of his always tasteful and titillating Avatars, he should advertise "Live... different strippers at the top of each hour" just to see how the traffic would increase 5 minutes before the top of each hour. And... I'm not talking paint!

hey, good idea +1!

190 degrees!!!! jeezus, i flip out when my dashboard is hot cause i didnt use my sunshade during the day....
Honestly, i'd be scared to start and drive the car in 120 ambient and no humidity... i guess fear of the unknown kinda thing, cause i know you guys do it regularly

Hmmmm, I managed to miss this. Thank God.

All I see is a plastic bag blowing around a bit. It does lock a bit cleaner than it was.

Not really.
At least I can get the car in there again.
It was already 103°F by 9am today.
I'll probably have to start shifting my day to pre-dawn again.

Jeff: that's crazy!

speaking of warming up: I was driving yesterday around 5pm, flying uphill (damn V8 Nissan Titan) and I started to see coolant temps in the 210 area. Hmmm... summer is a coming!

That is a typical highway ambient temp around here when the air temp is 155°+.

I don't know how you guys do it.
I'm sure I'll see some triple digit figures this week, but not that high. Worst I've seen was during that heat wave last year (which I KNOW Jeff still remembers) at 117° F

hmmm...might be time to call up Ray for some new hardware
