Short blurb doesn’t say what temp? 100 or higher?

Portland getting just the treatment it deserves. Maybe the heat will wake them up.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
I hope they are all forced to shop for one at Walmart unless they’ve gotten the hell out of town already too.

Even the news story didn’t have the temp so went to a weather site and the temp was 100f on Wednesday. Big whoop saying it’s triple digit making out like it’s really up there.

Hey, Portlanders. You are putting Earth in a Doom Loop...
1. More AC ➤ More CO2 in atmosphere
2. More CO2 in atmosphere ➤ Warmer atmosphere
3. Warmer atmosphere ➤ Portlanders want more AC
4. GoTo 1
So, Portlanders, if you want to save the earth from boiling, just suck it up and enjoy the heat.

Air conditioners aren’t green.
Just smoke some bud and chill...

Just looked up the weather in Portland. Yeah it’s really hot today. So they’re blaming it on global warming. But for ne, it’s been a slightly cooler but wetter than usual summer for me.

How much notice did they haveAnnually.
Hot winds from the east (desert) blow down the Columbia Gorge. In the winter, icy winds do the same. Nothing new here.
