Silversleuth Loc: San Francisco Bay Area
 
Guess we're pretty fortunate, here in the City By The Bay. Typical San Francisco July, low 50's and fog in the mornings and mid 60's in the afternoons. Can't even imagine trying to breathe outdoors in those 110 + environments.

Ah memories! ... I moved from NY to Dallas in June 1980 when records were set...but nothing was unusual to me since I was expecting HOT anyway! Thing is...my car, bought in NY, had no Air Conditioning, so when I got to Dallas I shed a lot of clothes to the bare minimum...when I got to the office, I put on my dress shirt, tie and suit coat...reverse going home. I lived that way for 1 year before getting a new car WITH AC.

As to current situation in 2023, wife and I recently enrolled in "Hotworx," a gym of sorts, where we do exercises to a virtual instructor on a TV screen in an infrared sauna at 125° for 1/2 hour. We go 3x per week. Sweating and exercise is good for the body.

I was in grad school that year and cleaning swimming pools to make a little money. Full time in the summer. I was doing it on those days that it was 112 and 113. Unfortunately, our a/c went out and we didn't have the money to replace it. I would get home and just sit in front of a box fan in a pair of athletic shorts. By the end of the summer I was looking pretty svelte. I don't think I could take 125 in a sauna for 30 minutes now. I'm too old.
