Tonight we looked for logs. Finding none, we turned the furnace on.

Alright, I'm calling it. Time to leave. Pack up your things, we're all moving to France!

Well I'm not.

But the plastic-one is marginally justified. His #15 was supposed to be quoting #14 but he screwed it up.

Nonetheless his first post was disgusting.

Absolutely. Tolerance and respect is massively important in these times, and those willing to make the difference should be commended.

On that note, it's so kind of you to be so willing to accommodate us all in France.

Do you have sufficient wine and food?

Of course. I think you know our house well and may be in a better position than I to comment on the remaining supplies.

I love the heat. :thumbup: After a very long and cold winter in Toronto...summer hasn't started yet. :(

I worked in Phoenix airport and our operating manuals went to 116 at the time, we hit that a few times, all flights had to stop until the temp dropped.

After that certification was given to 122F.

United either this past winter or the previous winter had a few days in Winnipeg where it got too cold and past the temp that was in their manuals for the plane type and needed to cancel flights.

38 here tomorrow, similar to today. Spent all day under the shade of a tree by the lake where its a little cooler and of course the odd dip to cool off. Plenty of water and lots of snacks and a BBQ for dinner, all at the beach and we will be there again tomorrow.
Travel to and from beach in car with A/C on and come home to house with A/C on. It really isn't too bad. :p

Working in it sucks of course as do the ever increasing wildfires that seem to pop up every day. Two started today locally and 2 yesterday!
No mention of water restrictions yet in our area of the Okanagan but maybe it will come.

What an utterly unnecessary post that adds literally nothing to the conversation.

I think it's warmer today. We have 4 fans running today + 1 industrial fan.

Home isn't bad, the portable keeps the place around 25 or so.

Just hard working in an office setting with clothing not suited for these temps, and being sweaty is not fun.

Plus the complaints non-stop from customers, gotta pretend like its just a recent issue to try and keep them from being too upset.

Sweating like a pig here in Kamloops.

38.2c was the hottest it got yesterday.

Officially it wasn't that hot here, but I got a recording of 36 on my thermometer outside which is in a shaded area, so no direct sun.
