My eternal saying: "The bastard sun is the real killer, not the hot air. If you can avoid direct sunlight (shade/head covering at day, or simply being out at night) you will be fine. Uncomfortable, but not super dangerous". "The bastard sun" is a quote I took from someone in an another weather forum who lives in a hot climate and also worked in even hotter places. And I have been obsessed with it. I really hate the sun, and sunny summer skies in general. OK if it's cold I'll start acting like a Brit and start craving the sun.

I think even 70°F is exhausting for him. For me 70-75°F DP is very nice. I like such moderately humid air. But 85°F DP is completely gross, and also exhausting (I have played soccer a couple of times in such weather). Unfortunately it's common here because of the very warm SSTs.

WOW. Phil died just reading this!

Only 85°F dew point rn. Very bad, but not the worst. We have seen much worse.

Looks like some convection on the Cascades this afternoon. Any chance it will come over to the west side?
