    It's so freakin' hot right now! I'm in the Northeast and the highest the temp is supposed to be 94 today. It's times like these that I wished clothes were never invented. Then everyone could walk around nude without anyone staring on a hot day like this. Can anyone beat 94 degrees? Is it hotter than that where you are right now?:mad:

    It is about 28 degrees here and it is extremely hot.
    With 94 degrees you can almost boil an egg on the ground and I do not believe it could be that hot.
    Even in the Sahara the temperature does not rise above 60 degrees.

    It isn't that hot here, but it's so damn humid. You can't breathe sometimes when you walk outside...it's like you're drowning in a hot tub. :)

    It's a nice cool 50 F or so here. Thank God it never gets into the 90's here. Summer is the time I definitley don't miss being in Oregon and it's 105 F summers. Ugh.

    I know it's hard to believe bird, but according to the weather channel the low was 51 at 5a.m. and 94 by high noon where I live. Believe me my mom watches the weather channel each night religiously for tommorow's forecast!:D

    Actually, the Kelvin scale is the best measurement of temperature. We should all use that.

    Kelvin is outdated, celsius is the hip temperature scale for the 21th century.

    Actually, Kelvin is eternal, and he kicks major ass.

    so what would 13C be in kelvin? that's what it is here right now.

    i'm expecting a nice comfortable 21 this afternoon. :)


    (wonders how many degrees above absolute zero that would be).

    Mynameiskc,

    Actually I think it's all Adam and Eve's fault why clothes exist. If they never would have recognized their own nudity we could have been a lot better off.
    Moonbeam7 :p

    13 C would be 286.15 in Kelvin.

    Hmmm... 0 K Gary? Sounds likely. I actually like to just think about absolute zero. It fascinates me.

    Yes, it is so cold that none of the molecules in my body are moving. it's very peaceful, everything is at a dead stop, yet still alive.
