Okay, I feel morally obligated to defrock the hubbub of humidity, wind chill, and all other nonsensical ideas of temperature manipulation, by old onomastic phraseology....
I concur with the above. The above, above the above... Just so we're all clear here......
I rode my Harley to Sturgis South Dakota in 2000. Three day ride from the east coast, and as a bonus, you get to walk bow-legged for a week, feeling like you have a beehive in your back pocket, where they enter through the crotch...
While there, the temp was 105, EVERY DAY!
"But it is DRY heat". Lemme tell youse all, it was like riding in a blast furnace.
According to old ass weather mathematics;
If it's 100 degrees out, and I drive 70MPH, it should feel like 30 degrees out...
NO NO NO. It was melting my face off my skull. I finally knew how Icarus felt...
Skiing, when it was 5 out, and a 20mph wind was afoot, it was supposed to be feeling like it was -15 degrees out...
NO NO NO!
I was bone chilling cold, however it was still 5. Now you want to talk COLD, I'll take you to McMurdo Air Base, on Ross Island, Antarctica.
Average winter temp of -40 degrees F or -50 C, add to the a daily average of 12 knot winds, up too 100 knots, and you have a recipe for witch bi-tchin cold, my friends.
The kind of cold that makes you do stupid things. Like peeing, to see if it freezes before it hits the ground...
It does
But there are very real health problems that come with that kind of stupid, you know, the special kind....
So any hoo, no one is evvah gonna tell me, that if you want to cool off in Arizona, or southern Texas, just go for a hyper drive, with the windows down.
Instead, just go for a round of golf, and no one cares about the GD temperature, if you're crazy enough to face the fire with hot steel in you hands.
Sounds sort of Gladiatorial to me, if you ask......
I'm 65 yards out.
Caddie, hand me the MACE!!
