Heat!
The last two days have been pure hell. With temperatures in the range of 40 degrees (celcius) and almost no wind, any place feels like a sauna. It’s not that I’m not used to the heat and the humidity. The places I’ve lived in boasted temperatures and humidity that would rival local conditions easily.
There just seems to be something different about the heat here. I mean - I’m home, with the fan (yes, I do not have air conditioning) on and I’m sweating.
Anshul seems to have a theory that I have become used to the cold over the last half year and can no longer take the heat. I’m not so sure of that theory. If I need to have some climate control, the only place I can get that is in college. Imagine going to college during summer holidays - just to beat the heat.
The thing is, the more you know - the hotter it is
. Back home, I never looked at the daily weather forecast. Here, with the ever-changing weather, it’s become a bit of a habit to see what the forecasters say. The problem is that Weather.com has these huge warning signs and temperature maps that scream out bad news. Today’s news is that the temperatures are neat record high and that there is an Air Stagnation advisory. With all these warnings, it just feels hotter than it is.
I wish I had air conditioning…..
Until next time, stay cool!
