    I live in the desert of eastern Washington state, USA.

    It’s been a fucking heat wave for a month already. I’m dyin’ over and losing so much sleep. It’s past 1am and the windows have been open with fans in them since 10pm when the temperature outside finally dropped below the temperature inside (79F/26.1C outside to 80F/26.6C inside), and as of now its finally down to… 77F/25C… still too fucking hot. It’s been well over 90F/32F every day for way way way too long. It’s hit 100F/37F at least 6 days that I’ve counted so far.

    I’m a self-hoster with a lot of devices and I’ve literally shut down any non-essentials to keep the heat down inside.

    No, this has actually been the nicest week in a month or so, temperature wise (Marseille, France). It didn’t even reach the 30s… but next week we’re back to the daily hellish 30°+ Celsius, lol.

    Nope. We had something between 23 and 27 degrees this week and next week will (probably) be the same. It’s also a bit windy. This is perfect weather. To me anything below roughly 32 - 35 degrees is manageable. Getting very critical very fast above that.

    Yup. 36C in Gyeonggido right now. Now I’m using an unbrella on top of sunscreens. Really considering getting a dedicated parasol since I’ve heard they a bit different, but I’m not sure if that’s actually significant.

    I guess some people would call it that, but 95F/35C is just normal summer temps for the US Midwest. As we say here, it’s not the heat that gets you, it’s the humidity.

    Locked in my parents’ basementTraveling in Thailand at the moment; Chiang Mai seems to only hit 90F/32C tops, which is… almost strange for a tropical area like this. A lot of places in China much more up North are way hotter than this at the moment

    We were 37° last week, 50%~90% humidity too… Thankfully, we had lots of rain this week, it’s down to 30° now…

    Nope. I’m in south western Germany and it was 27C today. I had to sit in the sun for a couple of hours but it was fine with a hat on.
