I live in the east county in San Diego and it's hot as shit outside it's currently 100 lol. I've never lived in a place with working ac. The only place I can cool off is in my car since I finally fixed the cars ac last week. I go through this shit every year I'm used to just sweating it out during the summer haha.

It's been pretty hot here in LA for the past week or so. Summer's actually been bearable for the most part. August, which is usually the time we get plastered with heat waves, was pretty nice up until the end, and now, I haven't been able to sleep dry in the past couple days. Go to sleep sweating, wake up in the middle of the night sweating (takes a shower), goes back to sleep sweating, wake up in the morning sweating.
I know we always have that topic of what is better, Summer or Winter. To all those that pick "Summer", fuck off!
Yeah, we are supposed to get cooler in the weekend. Sat and Sun seem to be ten degrees lower, in the 90s, and Monday and Tuesday seem head off into the 80s. Gimme 80s! I'm generally more partial to 60-70s (that, IMO, is the perfect "day" weather), but if it has to be "warm", I'd much embrace the 80s than the 100s.
Good thing I'm not a kid or teen anymore. They said on the news that around 60% of the schools in Long Beach have no AC. I remember in high school at the start school having Driver's Ed in a class with no AC and no fans. All the windows were open and we kept the lights off to "try" to keep it cooler (just used to light coming in from the windows to illuminate the class, which worked fine). That fuckin' sucked ass. It was like you had to peel yourself from your desk after the class let out. The only good thing about that was the other classes I had (especially the one after) had AC.

Glad it's a holiday weekend since it gave me an excuse to work from home. 102 outside but nice and cool with the AC.

Yeah I've been bitching about this recent heat wave but thinking back on it this is NOTHING compared to last year, that was just fuckin insane and I lived in Burbank so all the heat just sat trapped. And last summer I was on hiatus from work too and Burbank's power prices are so stupid, could barely afford to run my AC, just trying to lay still at home during peak hours while I poured sweat.
I wish there was a way to control the weather, so we could help out Texas and pull some of that rain over here. Spread the storm out over California and get everyone some relief. It's 2017 guys why don't we have this technology yet.

It's been 100+ for like four weeks here in Bakersfield. You'll be fine.

Many places in the Bay Area have no AC, especially older buildings.

94 degrees in San Fran? That's unheard of. Hope they have a/c there
Harvey probably kept a high pressure blowing desert wind into the bay. It's the storm that keeps giving.

Weather Underground app had a reported high of 99 in parts of SF earlier today. All-time record for SF I believe is 103.

I wonder if Trump will still double down on the global warming hoax if asked on Twitter.

The fucker don't care. Every place he is or goes to has AC on blast to keep his orange turdness perpetually cool. Rich fucks don't give a damn, they don't have to deal with things we regular people have to endure through. Unless this heat goes and physically shuts off their AC and FORCES them to confront it, they ain't going to budge from their belief.

Oh boy perfect time to go sit and chill in the data center.
Visited SF/ Monterrey in mid June had to buy a sweatshirt because it was in the low 60s with high winds and we were unprepared, far different from the Nashville TN June weather of 90s + humidity.
It's 90-100 in the Bay area and its 64 and windy here in Nashville today.. we're supposed to have the miserable heat - but you can have it for a few days..
(I fucking loved the weather out there and this is the first day we could open windows in our house here since April without killing our AC...)
Good luck out there

I live in NorCal. I clicked this thread all concerned, looked at the map, and was like 'I thought the OP said the heatwave is in NorCal?'
That isn't Northern California. Come on.

So they cancelled a Texas @ Cal game due to the poor air quality in Berkeley. So on top of the heat you also have poor air quality due to all the forest fires up there. Sounds like hell on Earth
Yeah I'm in Mission proper, and my room is scorching.

104 in Oakland. My apartment, like most in the area, doesn't have AC. I'm hiding out in the office tonight, but the weekend is going to be hell. It's not easy on my poor cats either. I tried to buy a portable AC, but all the stores are sold out. Fans are selling out too.

Ugh, sorry to hear it. That really sucks.
