859526	2010-02-18 03:56:00	why is it Aucklanders start crying as soon as the Temp gets anywhere near 30c, pretty sure the highest temp ever there is only like 32C, highest temp in CHCH ever 42C enough said :p Go there in Feb and you'll find out. We have had 33 degrees here. I sit outside enjoying it, I've been in Akld and I hated summer, it's nasty, you sweat when you're not moving. You feel stifled and a cotton sheet at night is miles too hot. It doesn't cool down, it stays that way. Then of course, you have to get up, dress in more than togs, crawl to work in it and unless you work at a big place, sweat all day and get back in your vehicle and crawl home while glued to the seat. No - buses don't improve the situation. Repeat until crazy. Here, we get cloud and the temp drops at least 10 - 14 degrees. I'd much rather be moaning about cool cloudy days than Aklds vile sauna climate. Anyway, the sun reappeared and it's back to lovely again now. Let the fire go out now.	pctek (84)

859530	2010-02-18 05:39:00	Where did you get this reading of 180% humidity? I thought the dew point is 100% R.H. Up here the water is quite dessicated and has a much higher condensation point.... That's why I drink beer. Less evaporation, although it's still quite a serious problem. I often find a number of empty bottles in front of me after a hot evening, without being able to recall that I drank each bottle dry... :D	johcar (6283)
859531	2010-02-18 05:56:00	yea im just stirring, but you have to admit they complain a lot :P It was noticeable ;) When you have such an idyllic location as this with such an equitable weather arrangement, any minor thermal disturbance seems a major event :D Disturbances several orders of magnitude greater may pass unnoticed in lesser regions where twenty degree temperature swings can be experienced while pouring a cup of tea. Naturally the poor benighted denizens of these nether regions seldom complain of their weather; a./ It is all they know; They expect it. b./ Life is such a keenly fought battle to survive the daily climate changes there is neither the time nor the opportunity to reflect on it what would be like to have weather that doesn't have to be measured in terms of the percentage of the population that survives the week's meteorological traumas. c./ Many of them have not yet evolved into any real awareness of their surroundings. (When they do, they invariably exchange their surroundings for somewhere better.) :banana :banana	R2x1 (4628)
