[br][img width=600 height=600]../../files/public/1229957035_3_FT0_weather.jpg[/img]

The temp got to 40 (celcius) and with the humidty, the heat index (effective temp) got to 47 !!

As you will see, this snapshot was taken at 4:30pm in the afternoon and it is still 36 degrees C.



The worst is, it is not yet our hottest time...that's Jan & Feb ...

Man, do I pity you. I'll be digging my car out of 14 inches of snow (~35cm) this morning. That's really the weather in December?!

It's summer here too.
Holy ****, 40° C? that is muuuuuuuuch hot.
really. I don't think we got that temperature.
I hate summer.

Yesterday started the first day of winter here...

And right now it's about 40F here, too. Note: 40F, not 40C.

tell me about it! summer is hell! right in the middle of christmas too. Last 4 days have been hottest this season. relentless

Damn that sucks dude. I never had the like for summer. I've always preferred winter or fall. Do you have air conditioning? 47C? Wow.

yup, aircons are working overtime....

Heat during the day is livable (if you stay out of it), but it's the nigh and humidity at night that gets to me...like now, it's 9pm and its still damn 30C outside...

We normaly have it hot, but this year is just really bad...weather all over is screwed...

BTW, if anyone is interested, here is a link to a live weather station in my town...

This bites, it's -30 below here in Montana.

I WANNA LIVE IN AFRICA!!

I would love to go where you are SX
our winter is cold, but never reached below 2 or 1°C.
whoever that wear Santa claus clothes at christmas here have to deal with heat.

8°C over here, the ice & snow is melting quickly.

i live in california. close to the beacheas so the summers is not blazing hot nor the winters numbingly cold.
but i pefer the winters sence its nice and cool.(at night its freezin')
the only problem is that my school is in the fire pits known as the valley and its quite far.

anyways, sorry that summers comin' to ruin your christmas.
whats it like in winter?

I live in Spain,but I'm not Spanish,duh.

Its 15C in here,not really warm I know. It only gets cold when it's night or you get outside.

we got almost 40 yesterday, but last week, for about 2 days straight, it was puring down rain non stop, pretty strange since we're in a severe drought at the moment, the weather here is very moody sometimes, doesn't know what it wants to do...

BRUTAL!

Wow. Don't think I could get used to a Christmas in summer.

Like Tyster said, we've just been getting piled on with snow. Quite a nice blizzard here in Custer last Sunday. Visibility was terrible and my parents had to drive in it to deliver a puppy. Then we had to shovel the road and our driveway (again) so that they could get the van off the road and into our driveway.

I'll have to take some pics of all the snow soon.

At the moment, according to My Yahoo, it is 12 degrees F (-11 C). Not quite SX's balmy -30, but still quite cold.

-11 or colder is something I haven't experienced in 2+ years.

come to boston... the snow just went on a 4 day binge and we have like 2-3 feet of snow. its BAD.

That sucks dude. Does the humidity get in even with the air-conditioners on full blast or do you have to turn them off to let them rest?

Last year before I left for Nanjing I was in New Jersey and the summer there was hot and humid. One night the air conditioning unit in our dorm broke and we were left in the humid heat for about two weeks before our Facilities department decided on fixing it up. I'd take winter over summer anytime.

I haven't seen more than two inches of snow in my entire life.
It's a cool 45 Fahrenheit here, which means I'm FREEZING.

That is cool, but far away from freezing.

I can't imagine living somewhere where it goes below zero and that isn't a major event.

I think it has snowed twice where I live currently. Right now it's about 85F in this room (this PC and 2 360s don't make for AC units, but my bro's PC across the room does work like AC, it cools this room from 97F to that 85F). As for outside... I dunno, I don't go outside often, it's usually just quite crappy to go out from humidities... and there's not much to do outside besides work on our second house...

No, the aircons help with the humidity.
It's actually that humidity thats a killer...heat on its own is bearable to a point, but add that humidity factor and it's deadly, because the effective tempreature sky rockets.

Aircons are nice, but very heavy on the electricity bill, also South Africa doesn't have a wonderful electricity supply, so the demand place on the supply grid causes black outs

There are other places that are hotter on average, like Dubai, but they are fully geared to live in those conditions, we're not

woah that's hot...

In the Netherlands we got pretty stable weather. Almost never near 40 degrees Celsius and I think almost never lower than about -10.

Right now it's grey, cloudy and boring weather. (like mostly in this season) I rather have summer where the temperatures are great to a bit overheat. ^^

sounds nice there.
grey, cloudy and boring sounds like my kind of weather. (dont ask why, i dont know).
i've been to japan at summertime.
Sweet Evil Jesus, does it get hot out there!
and minnesota.US. its not the heat that gets to you,
its the HUMIDITY.Dun dun duuuun..
...
also, if you where to move somewhere, to escape the heat, where would you go?

It is my kind of weather as well. There is just something attractive about streetlights shining onto wet pavement early in the gray/dark morning.

Yeah, kinda cloudy here as well. The snow is getting kinda melty, its snowing, and chunks of snow from our trees kept hitting me on the head when I was outside.

Cold greetings from nature, eh?

Heh heh, yep!

xD

It looks like someone put ambient brightness to 128 outside.
