Now this one I agree 100% on. I am so sick of hot humid weather. I really despise humidity. I love west coast weather. Dry heat when it is hot.

I love Fall weather but the problem with it is that it is quickly followed up by winter, which is brutal compared to what we're getting right now.

brutal winters i can live with...can always layer up..

i love sledding , xc skiing so it fun to go out with the boys (not many years left of that)...if we have a good winter i might pick up a snowmobile this winter too..after a day outside in the cold nothing beats coming home, putting on the bulls/ blackhawks abd lying on the couch all covered up and just relaxing while the wind is howling outside :)

problem with summer is after you get down to shorts and t-shirt if you havent cooled off you're out of luck...and i can't go past that..you don't want to see me shirtless :P

Most of what I do is outside . And this has been the worst I can recall . Though other summers are by the numbers worse ( so far ) . I was out in those too . And this has just kicked my behind . I cannot wait for fall . I love winter .

This has definitely been a brutal summer to be working outside.

On top of that consecutive 80+ degree streak we're about to break, we also have an extremely good chance of breaking the record for most 90+ degree days in a summer. That's a pretty big record.

It has been tough on my wife because she hasn't been able to take our daughter outside to play as much as she would have liked.

I don't work outside and handle the heat pretty well so I've enjoyed it for the most part. I even golfed on a couple of those 100 degree days and managed to enjoy myself just fine.

The key is to not wear any cotton. I have mostly all polyester sport-wicking summer clothes now. Socks, shorts, shirt, even the underwear. Makes a HUGE difference. Highly recommended.

It would figure that the summer I start doing Crossfit, it's hotter than it's ever been.

Doesn't it get stuffy under that Bag?

I switched to a 100% polyester sport-wicking bag. Not too shabby.......
