KVUE weather in Austin said 2011 we had 90 days in a row over 100 and 105 total. That was a brutal summer. I rather have this than 20 degrees and the wind howling any day. LOL

I wonder how much the climate you are in and get acclimated to has to do with how hot we feel. In other words, when I travel to the mountains in Colorado or Lake Tahoe during the summer, all I hear about from the locals is how hot it is, and humid, and they can’t wait for fall etc etc. Being from Texas, I relish their summer weather because it is so much cooler than here. But I wonder how long it would take for me living in Tahoe for me to gripe about 85 degree weather in the summer. Vice Versa, I wonder how long it would take for someone from the mountains to think 85 degrees in Texas isn’t hot and if they could adjust to 100+ Degree heat...

The best time at work is when it was 20 degrees with a stiff north wind. Just layer up and it’s easy to stay warm. In the summer time though, once I get hot it takes a LONG time for me to stop sweating and to cool off again.
Well I’d say the best time to work is when it’s 60 degrees outside, not 20. Just a preference I guess. I hate multiple layers. Too bulky for me and my hands freeze.
