It's about 40 degrees here, and i am melting. Can cat's survive high temperatures okay? one of my cat's is very fat and has a thick fur coat. I haven't seen her in a couple of days. I hope she isn't dead.

Anyway, i think i might be comforted if someone would tell me they live in a big pollution filled city further south and have it a lot worse off than i do

how about it? any of you have really really horrible heat where you live?

I live in New Mexico. We get 5 inches of rain a year.

350-ish clear days a year.

It's 105 degrees in the shade, where you can find it.

People move like bugs, fast and direct, from their house to their car, never lingering. The clouds would help, except they just make it humid, and trap the heat at night, so it's 94 degrees at 2:00 in the morning.

Yeah. I have almost all of you guys beat.

Hell yeah.. IN fact, the heat is ON hell right now where I am.. its about 100 degrees outside. Talk about a melt down.
As for the cat?... My cat is doing juuust fine it seems. Am giving her alot of refridgerated water & she is hanging out tooo much on the tile floor... not on my lap.

102 here today. feckin heat.

[edible snowman]

100 degrees or close to it a few days in michigan. my car has no air conditioning. SuX0r...

[ambient-whisper]

im pretty sure fat pinguin was talking about celcius degrees....and not faranheit.
which would be a huge difference

[Impaler]

40 degrees is about.. 92 degrees Farenheit, I think.

[FatPenguin]

The conversion formula for centigrade --> fahrenheit is:

degrees in celcius * 9/5 + 32 = degrees in that other silly scale

so 40 celcius = 104 fahrenheit

edit: what i wrote didn't make much sense... my brain no function well in excessive heat

This proves that it is getting warmer
everywhere....100 in Michigan?...damn!

I was at least 98 here today....in Washington......thats a big sign...
We are like the rain capitol......

i'm in B.C. in the fraser valley and im guessing it got to about 30c or around there. damn hot day plus it gets really humid here too, so your skin feels all gross and sticky. blah

[Ahcri]

I guess I shouldn't complain, but the temperature here in Victoria is 28c, it's so frigging hot under the sun and there isn't a single cloud in sight. I'm getting a headache from the heat (it isn't usually this hot here).
