ltdiver 3 #1 August 9, 2004 God, it was ~HOT~ today at Perris!!!! My head hurt and I had to escape into my trailer and the air conditioning in the late afternoon! The HEAT just wasn't letting up! I had already downed several bottles of water, too! News reports on the radio were reporting people getting heat exhaustion! I swear it was 107+ degrees outside in the sun but this Weather Report at March AFB puts the high at only 96.8 degrees! Where the heck do they take the temperature readings?!? In the SHADE?! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #3 August 9, 2004 QuoteThey take it up the ass. Nahhhhh.... Wrong answer, since rectal temperature is normally .5-1 degree warmer than oral temperature (which is normally 98.6 degrees F). So, if they 'took it up the ass', their reading would be -higher- than it felt outside, not cooler. Next? ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the SHADE?! ltdiver yes. to get an accurate air temperature reading you have to be out of direct sunlight and away from objects that would prevent air circulation. the temp you feel has many other elements added in to the equasion. ya, it's hot... that's all i need to know. i'll leave all that technical crap to someone who gets paid for it. ~E Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites ltdiver 3 #7 August 9, 2004 QuoteQuote Where the heck do they take the temperature readings?!?
