How Hot Is It?

[DigitalDrifter]

Through last week it was pretty nice at 5 a.m. to take dogs for walk and then spend a hour or so on back patio while reading, watching people bike, jog, walk along the irrigation canal, and just shoot the breeze with wife. Those days are shot for next 3 months. Screen shot I took Tuesday:

Luckily D-Backs are also hot.

But it's a "dry heat".

Of course, so is fire.

Hotter than a two-peckered goat in a pepper patch.

On Tuesday it hit 119 here in Phoenix....cooled off to 117 yesterday, and it was already 100 at 9am today.

But global warming is hoax.

They live in a ******* desert, you moron!

That's where I stole it!

It is around 80 degree here with a lovely sea breeze.

I read planes can't fly in that heat, and they were grounded.

Yep, with air that hot they can't get normal lift so they need more runway than is available...anything over 118 is risky business for some airlines.

My wife and I flew out of Phoenix last week and she wondered why it took so long to get airborne there than it had in Seattle. I explained that hotter air did not produce as much lift, so it would require a longer runway length to take off!

I couldn't tell the difference between 105 and 115.

OT:
Well, back in the 1990s I could. I presume I still can; however, I generally eschew really hot places like Tempe and Phoenix, AZ; thus I've not since had the "opportunity" to confirm whether I still can.

How was I able to tell? I had a project in Tempe, AZ and I, for about five minutes, stood outside on an asphalt parking lot chatting with a colleague. During that time, I felt the heat of the pavement through the soles of my shoes. The temperature was 113 degrees Fahrenheit. Later that same day, when the temp had dropped to 107, I was standing in a different parking lot for a longer period, and I didn't feel the heat coming through my shoes.

FWIW, these are the shoes I was wearing...

Are those penny loafers?

Yes. The band with its little "cut out" across the vamp is what makes them be "penny" loafers. More traditionally styled ones look like this.

FWIW, these are the ones I wore everyday in high school. (Yes, they still fit, but I don't wear them often. They aren't worn out, so I've kept them.)

Interestingly, my dad also wore penny loafers from middle school through college. He once told me that he and his peers put dimes in the slots, purportedly, according to him, because it was a safe and sure way to have coins for making a phone call if need be.

hotter air produces less lift ? they need to keep Trump away from Airports for safety reasons

It was so hot in Phoenix I saw a Convenience store with a sign that said:

No Shirt
No Shoes
No Pants
OK for Service​

I was in Titus Canyon back in the 1970's and the outside temp was 115, but the ground temp was over 175! My thermometer pegged in an instant so I have no idea what the actual temp was.

When you're hot, you're hot.

Yes we also put dimes in them to make phone calls if necessary.

She's smart, successful, beautiful, and welcome in my bed any time.

it is all relative. When in the engine room of a steam powered warship, the temps can reach 165 degrees in some places. The air coming in off the Red Sea was 116 degrees. You would be surprised how cool that feels!

Are the woven leather loafers Cole Haan? (Just curious, I'm an ex shoe dog/ shoe buyer/merchandiser)
