ap from @ChrisMartzWX: Nice reminder of what reality has done. Can you imagine what the climate crowd would be doing now if it were in the 1930s (1/4 of the world's population, with 28 times more climate/weather deaths)? The heat deaths were due to a lack of air conditioning, which, apparently, along with deodorant (don't want to wreck that ozone layer), the French gvt is against. They were warned about a month ago about what was coming, and they are aiding and abetting misery

When I was a child (from age 6-8, roughly), my family lived in the San Fernando Valley of southern California. I distinctly remember the temperature getting to 115 one year. I've long since moved back to my "homeland" back east, but frequently keep an eye on L.A.-area temperatures - AND THEY'RE NEVER THAT HOT!!!

Meanwhile, it's about 95 here.

96 degrees with a humidity of 80% to 100% the last few days here... without air conditioning I probable would be dead or hugging gallons of Ice Cream at the local grocery store. Our air conditioner gets us about 73 degrees at night and maintains around 77-78 degrees by evening (doing all she can do)... but with a fan it is fine. Go outside and do a few things for 30 minutes and come in and cool off... while outside nurse an cup of ice water.

Same here. A few minutes outdoors can make one woozy.

I am life long California, I remember in elementary school the temps would get into the 90's and they would close thew blinds and turn out the lights and tell us it would make it cooler, LMAO! I watched Carson show reruns from the seventies where he would ask the audience if they were okay because they had been standing in line in 104 degree heat. People forget the heat waves of the past and the mush minded turned out by the school indoctrination may not have experienced the cycles of honest to God weather.
