I was working in Homa one summer re-rigging a heavy lift barge.
The sun beating down on the steel deck made the temp inside the barge over 130. we weren't supposed to stay below deck for more than 45min.
The temp difference between below deck and on deck in the shade was so different you actually felt cold you would have to stand in the sun until you cooled off.
Every afternoon it would rain for about 30min. The deck would cool so quick water would condense on the ceiling and it would rain inside the barge. Felt like someone poured ice water down your back.
I’m in the Houston area now. Nobody ever said “yeah, but it’s a dry heat” in Houston. Heat Index is real. And if you have a job where you got to where FRC’s out in the plant, it is even more real.
