It’s so hot, roads are buckling, they’re putting foil on a bridge and roofs are melting around the world (only 8.51 years left)

All my life, I’ve lived within 10 miles from where I was born in DC.

Some Summers are very hot, some Winters very cold. I haven’t seen much difference at all through almost 7 decades.

Evaporative cooler. The high temperature in London is 70 degrees. Fahrenheit. Total hype.

When I was a young’un in GITMO, 104 was normal.

When did they let you out?

I got sick of the heat. That’s why I live at 5,000 ft.

Gee. Never in my life, ever, ever, have I seen asphalt soften and melt in the sun.

We are doomed, no doubt.

And when I was in Wisconsin, it got warm then cold, and the bridge dropped a couple of inches. Weather does things, especially if the structure is under-engineered or poorly made or just old.

Considering the quality of many CCP construction projects, it’s not really surprising about that museum’s roof.

Well, they sent us to the States when Kennedy and Khrushchev got in their little tiff. But we went back for a few more years.

When I was a kid many, many, many years ago, they were frying eggs on the sidewalk. Beach sand would burn your feet.

Also known as a swamp cooler - a version of A/C that only works in dry climates. You can make your own (basically air flowing over/through water.
