Our "feels like" was 125* today. I'll trade you my 60% humidity for your 25% LOL! You can swim in the air here it's so thick! 15 minutes outside and your t-shirt is soaked!

I put off doing fiberglass prep on the inside of my hull as long as I could but I really want to be done with that part of the build so I am back at it again. I find bodywork to be miserable even when it is cool, 100+ makes it worse. I also probably should have cooled the resin down before doing my layup, the epoxy kicks so fast in the pot even with 4oz batches.

100 here today and it's supposed to get hotter, the lake felt like bath water yesterday when I test rode a ski, luckily today I spent most of the day in the truck, I may have to get one of those jackets, I have a Mission cooling hat, it doesn't do much in this kind of heat.

I had to do a commissioning on a hydraulic control system on a jackup rig in Dubai last month, full frcs and ppe. It was miserable. 111 actual temp and humid, I figured it wouldn't be that much different than the weather in Houston during this heat wave, 107-109 at our house. Boy was I wrong, I don't know how those guys do it full time, especially the welders.

I was built for cold weather so I really struggle with the heat.
Therefore, I make cool friends wherever I go...

I rigged this up for my wife a few weekends ago. It works for the bugs and the heat.

I had a lovebug on my window today, the first one I have seen this year, I was wondering at what speed it would let go of my window, turns out they are good up to 60 MPH.
