killing dozens from Quebec

100 degrees in Texas is fine weather for yard work. Probably is wise to sit in the shade when it gets over 110.

There was a hot spell in Paris back in the '90s that they claimed killed 15,000 elderly people. Or maybe it was 15,000 per day, I can't recall.

I’ve lived in Vegas 40 years.100 ain’t too bad, you can work till 105. Mad dogs at 110 to 115.

I drive a 57 Bel air with no air conditioning and I manage to survive.

Yesterday it was 75 degrees in North Texas. At about 4 PM, the temperature began falling, right in the middle of planting rose bushes.

This morning it was 35 degrees, now it's about 45.

We get it, it's February in North Texas. One week it can get up to 80, next week below freezing. Man made global warming? Hogwash, DFW has added probably 3 million over the past 20 years...February has wild swings, and summers are still hot as hell.

Bring back global warming!!!

I have walked behind a Gravely walking tractor in South Carolina when the temperature was over 100 but I was much younger then, I probably would not last five minutes at that now. As a teenager I walked behind a mule all day, day after day, in South Carolina in the Summer Sun. I wouldn’t try that now for a million dollars, I would probably drop dead before ten AM. There are few still living who have any concept of what everyday life used to be like on the farm.
