Yeah, so? Over 100 it is just hot. Dry heat just makes it less
miserable.

Actually...100F at 10% humidity isnt all that bad at all.
100F a 100% humidity is a killer.

Which is one of the reasons I dont go to the South during summer months.

"It was a 106 in the shade this afternoon.
"Good thing we were not in the shade, right?"

Conversation in my youth, after spending a day at the base pool.

It's eight fifty eight. Close enough!

listing the manifold reasons why he ought to be ignored. Just my $0.02

For a professional scribe, you fail. Was already set as the MPH we
were
typing about. Isabella is only about 40 miles from Taft, and the ocean
not much difference is distance. But the valley can get extremely
windy.
Very hot and very windy in the summer.

Yoda, you are?

Dry heat, wet heat. It still sucked. A farm 5 miles from Turlock and not
a lot to do. Sucked as a kid without a drivers license. Too young.

Even today...Turlock sucks.

But the Valley isnt all bad.

Just much of it.

At least..during the day.

I went from 100 and low humidity to 75 and high humidity (Tucson
to Tulsa) Ack. (Not as bad as going from Buenos Aires Argentina to
Tyler Texas - in July. Mild winter (50s) to heat wave. Double Ack.)

Which is one of the reasons I dont go to the South during summer months.

Have friends, originally from Beaumont Texas. They'd go back for
visits, in the winter. She was always "It's ain't so bad, why'd we
ever leave?" Till she went back for a month, in August.
