Melrick Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I know it’s all down to what you’re used to, but 33C degrees is pleasant summer’s day, not a heatwave. lol This is an Australian take on the ‘heatwave’.

CloverReef Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 uuuugh 33C is still bad. We had a heatwave recently, I think it was around 38ish for a few days? I dunno. I just know a bunch of people died. As someone with a medical condition that makes my internal temperature impossible to self-regulate, anything above 25 is brutal, which is pretty much all summer. I need to move to the mountains. Or England. It rains there a lot, doesn’t it? I like rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desiderius Price Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Screw the heat, a good series of long rain showers brightens my mood. CloverReef 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxWench Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don’t mind dry heat. Humidity gets to me faster, to be honest, and a humid 28C will do me in long before a dry 33C. I don’t actually care for rain, unless I can remain indoors, or watch it from the porch. If snow didn’t occur in such freaking cold temperatures, I’d like it, but you know. I don’t do well below freezing. CloverReef 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowDarkling Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 You are all very welcome to take some of the rain… I’ll trade you, as many rainy days as you all want, for a week here and a week there, and a frigging warm autumn! Honestly, we are not famous for our fabulous long balmy summer days up here (other than, you know the sun never fucking going the fuck down, so in that sense, the summer days are the longest) seeing as how 34°C (I thinkz) is the highest temperature on record since we began recording, and that was hit somewhere up in buttfucknowhere-mountains. But for fuck’s sake, summer weather is not supposed to be WET… and I mean that in the most literal sense of the word. It’s either raining or just wet… too light to be rain, but too dense to be fog, so just fucking wet… And I swear, if the rain follows me to NYC, I’m sacrificing a baby goat or something… ::exits stage left, and grabs the wine on the way out:: CloverReef and BronxWench 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melrick Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 We’re in a drought here so we need the rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxWench Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I know just the place for that goat sacrifice. ::nods vigorously:: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowDarkling Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Honestly @Melrick if I could, I would mail you some rain. I’ve got people I love very much down there in NSW, and I swear every time I hear that there are brushfires down there, it makes my heart sink. But this weather is just getting ridiculous all over the planet. Melrick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxWench Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I’ll second Neko on sending anyone who wants it some rain. I seem to have been relocated to Seattle, but 20 degrees (Fahrenheit) warmer… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melrick Posted July 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 @WillowDarkling Much of NSW is in its worst drought for well over a century, so it’s getting awfully dry. I just hope we get plenty of rain before summer gets here, otherwise it’s going to be a bad bushfire season. BronxWench 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillowDarkling Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 I’m doing my best to send you some rain, @Melrick, I promise. It’s been almost dry here for two days now, so maybe it’s working… ::crosses everything, knocks on wood, shouts, “seven, nine, thirteen!!”:: Stay safe, and I hope my little loves will be safe down there too.
