They mentioned the temperature, but 85 in LA is nothing. Today is my parent’s anniversary (RIP to both) and they were wed in 1943 in Albany, GA with no air conditioning. I can’t imagine the heat they endured in SW Georgia in July with dad in his uniform and mom in a heavy wedding dress. Now that’s hot.
We live down south & I was just saying to a friend who grew up here....I don’t know how they did it back in the day. It’s almost beyond imagining.
Albany Georgia in July 1943 had 4 days between 87-89…25 days between 90-99, and 2 days between 100-103.
I remember the 1960s...my grand-dad’s old house...window fan to bring cool evening air. Shade tree over the porch. No AC. Always a pitcher of lemonade made up.
People act like 100 degrees is the end of the world now.
