The Hotter 'N Hell 100 should have been happening now, but it was canceled months ago due to the Trump Pandemic.
If I remember right, and sometimes I do, last year's Hotter 'N Hell 100 was not HOT, with the temperature being in the 90s. With rain, again, if I am remembering right.
108 is a bit warm. Not the hottest I've ever experienced, but HOT enough.
The A/C seems to be working well. It shuts off every once in awhile to take a break.
I have the A/C set at 76.
At my old home location in the Puget Sound zone of Western Washington, an outdoor temperature of 76 would feel like a heat wave.
I recollect way back in the year 2004 I flew up to Washington, leaving a Texas heated into the 100s. I landed at Sea-Tac and upon exiting the airport and feeling the air for the first time, I shivered.
The temperature was in the low 70s.
The person who picked me up that time took me to Tacoma, where I soon found myself waiting outside something called The Queen's Closest. There was a guy painting the outside of the building.
Shirtless.
I was shivering and this guy was shirtless.
Soon I found myself at Fred Meyer's (think Walmart, but way nicer, or it used to be before Krogers bought it) to buy sweatpants and a sweatshirt.
I can not remember when I last felt the need to find my sweatpants. I suspect that need may be arising in a couple months. Sooner if for some reason I find myself up north, in Washington...
