·Just another day in the San Joaquin Valley evaluating melons.
Edit: 40-42c is the forecast for those that don’t like Fahrenheit.

·It's going to be 108F/42C at my sister's place in Dallas today. 104F/40C here in Austin and no rain for weeks (months?) is pretty much the new normal. I got spoiled in San Diego for a week earlier this month where the highs were below 75F/24C, though the drought there is worse than it is here.

·Depends on which app or weather station I look at, temps 92F-98F with a “feels like temp.” 100F-107F. Any one know any usefulness for the so called “feels like temp.? I know what it is, a combination of actual temp. And humidity to guesstimate what it feels like. But is there any real use to it. Like if the actual temp. is 30F but the feels like temp. I 60F, should I dress for 60F. I think not. But some weather stations here just give you the feels like. When what really matters I the actual temp. Sorry for the rant, over &out.

It's very useful here. In the summer what we call the Humidex let's you know how much the humidity is going to restrict evaporation from your skin, making it feel hotter than the temperature, which let's you know that you may need to drink more water to avoid heat related illness..
In the winter, what we call the wind chill will let you know how much the wind is going to make the temperature feel colder - this can be important for gauging the risk of frostbite, which increases with the wind chill.
But here we always get both temperatures.

·Yeah I think the "feels like" can actually be a better indicator of how dangerous extreme temperatures can be. It seems weird to get only that from the meteorologist, though.

·Blue always blue. Nhulunbuy trip for work.
One fond memory of my time fishing in the tropics was cycling through the numerous names and various hues of the colour blue. When all you can see is blue, what else were you to do.
I feel very fortunate to state, "been there, done that." Spent a few years fishing around the area, and one very memorable night celebrating our "Mates" birthday at the "Walkabout Hotel" which another mate of a different type owned at one stage. I later awoke later that night, mate and skipper having a huge arguement as the "gear" (nets) had come up in a horrible twist, tangle. Arguement was all about not remembering who shot the gear away. Not me was all I could say. Those were the days, especially with the feelings of gratitufe to have survived.
As for Stockport. Yep, been there done that too. Visted my mother inlaw (gratuitously now X mother inlaw) who lived closeby. I recall, the only place whereupon awakening, a glimpse outside, and first thoughts for this Australian was... "bleak!"
What a contrast. I ended up settling somewhere inbetween the aforementioned contrasts, in a wonderful temperate climate, year round. Love it!
