Bunch of whiners in the PNW.

 

Talked to my son in Portland yesterday on his way to work and the thermometer in his car said it was 104.  He said people were losing their minds over the "heat wave".  Told me it really wasn't so bad.

 

He's moving back to FL in a few months...

Isn't that where Antifa got their start?

I suppose you do without air-conditioning in Florida.

Places in the continental U.S. that don't have A/C are third-world countries.

This thread is useless without Andy Ngo's input via Twitter on how Antifa caused it to be fifty thousand gajillion degrees because they defunded the police.

Aunt-tee-pha didn't cause the heatwave, they inspired Marxist viewpoints that caused poor planning on the part of PNW residents and bytelling them to eschew Air-conditioning as a racist scheme. If we had listened to the proud boys we would not have sweat running down our delicate regions.

Air conditioning adds to global warming, so if you used it, you'd only be even hotter.

It's like 108 here today. I mean, I'm not going to lie, its not pleasant outside, but why do people freak out so much?

Maybe I opened the issue up to levity with my post, we don't have air-conditioning, we don't really have a strategy for the heat. Even my attic ventilation was not hardened for 100 plus weather. Dealing with the heat requires a strategy. We don't have that for the snow and we don't have that for the heat. 

 

We checked into a hotel to get relief for our dog who still has his winter hair style because it always rains in June. I was very worried about my parents with their 1950s post modern house. It was hot for someone over 80 and we are relatively cool compared to inlamd areas.

 

Our employer opened our facilities as cooling stations and fire departments had special protocols.

 

So I don't know what happened in Portland, god bless Portland, but in Seattle we took care of ourselves and our neighbors and drank more water. No one freaked out except the folks in the bars that closed down because it was hot.

I thought open burning was a bad thing for the environment?

Quit freaking out....nothing to see here!
