....that the tub of solid butter had turned into tub of butter 'soup'

....that everyone in town had turned on their fans and air conditioning which caused a blackout for 7 hours (*thinks to self* knew there's a reason that I brought a generator...)

95 here in Michigan, USA

*placed 5 electric fans on self*

It was really hot in the ole nation's capital today. Don't think it was 95, but my arms got burnt from taking a 15 minute car drive. I don't like such heat.

It is so hot here that we had to put the peanut butter in the fridge so that we would not have to "pour" a peanut butter sandwich!
In AZ, that is a year round necessity!
We just "officially" neared the 100 mark and expect to surpass it any day now.

Try it out here in the great American South. Its hot like that but try it with a 100% humidity factor. The air is almost too thick to breathe.

In Cuba our low is 70 degrees. And that's our *winter*. Doesn't get any colder than that. Well, we can go to the beach all year round. Nothing wrong with that.

In Germany, we have wonderful swimming-pool temperatures. But I didn´t even get a sunburn playing basketball all afternoon. It´s just perfect.

The temperature here today at 3pm was 97 degrees. Ouch. I can only imagine how horrible it is in other, hotter parts.

The temperature here in Missouri has been in 90's nearly every day, and up over 100 a couple of times. The heat index is well over 100, usually 110+. Plus, it's incredibly humid, which makes everything that much worse.

Two summers ago, I lived in a house with a couple of other people that didn't have air conditioning. We had a candleholder on the with a regular candlestick in it. It got so incredibly hot inside that house that the candle actually melted a bit and bent over at an angle. That also happens to be the summer that I broke my ankle, so I got to spend 3 or 4 weeks at that house, in a cast, with just a fan. (We did eventually have to put a window unit in the room I was staying in.) Needless to say, I stayed with my parents for about 3 or 4 weeks while I had the cast on so I could enjoy some air conditioning

so hot that...

* -you see a dog chasing a cat and they were both WALKING
* -you want to swim down the road instead of walk on it
* -you can leave your leftovers from the fast-food place in the car and they'll still be heated 4 hours later
* -you expect any moment to be attacked by salamanders and fire elementals
* -Siberia starts looking like an attractive residence possibility
* -half the people are barefoot and it's in an OFFICE
* -if you "take a leak" in the woods, it evaporates before it hits the ground
* -you can fry eggs on your car hood quicker than you can on your stove
* -you decide to go indoors to get a sun tan
* -mascara runs before you even put it on
* -ladies don't even think about panty hose until late September
* -if you buy a steak at the grocery store, it's cooked by the time you get it home
* -grass comes in three shades: yellow, brown, and dead
* -the top of your outdoor thermometer just exploded
* -the "cold tap" on the water faucet is a sick joke
* -your clothes are dry before you can even get them hung on the line
* -you have to run the AC in your car for 10 minutes before you can even dare to touch the metal buckle of the seatbelt
* -you begin to wonder if there's sunblocks with SPF values in the triple-digit range
