It’s Going to be Really, Really Hot in Philly This Weekend
Philadelphia Magazine ^ | 07/22/2002 | CLAIRE SASKO

If you didn’t notice – which you probably haven’t, because it’s still unbearably hot – the year’s longest heat wave has ended, but that doesn’t mean the temperature’s cooling off that much, or for that long. In fact, another heat wave is likely in store.

The city and surrounding areas have been issued an excessive heat watch for this weekend. The National Weather service said a coming heat wave could bring the highest temperatures of the summer, starting tomorrow. Highs will reach the mid to upper 90s, according to the NWS.

Don’t surprised if temperatures soar into the triple digits on Saturday and Sunday. Heat index values are expected to reach as high as 105 degrees

Had seen the weather and the whole USA is under a “heat dome” which means even Mr. Trump had to take his tie off and put his famous MAGA baseball cap on!

“Got to remember you are dealing a “dry heat.............”

Storms off of Mexico keep the humidity comparable to what I knew in Augusta, Georgia Summer of 1966 when I was at Fort Gordon, or what I knew in Uijongbu, South Korea. Maybe our deserts are dry, but not so much right here where all we have to do is walk outside to start sweating like crazy. No need to exert oneself at all. Hot, and sticky.

"When I watched the GOP convention, there was much more unity, and other then for the Sen. Cruz..."

Cruz did some unifying of his own - EVERYONE now thinks his political career is OVER. (former Cruz supporter - now all-in for Trump)

Going to be too hot for protesters
****************
does this mean that the 50,000 protesters will also be carrying a one gallon jug of their favorite drink, and just use the streets as their toilets?

Since John Kerry said air conditioning is as big a threat as ISIS, will the Democrats set a good example and cut off the air conditioning at their convention???

It’s gonna smell worse than a New Delhi train station during evening rush hour...

***********************************************

There’s also the “fart-in”. Security needs to make sure no one lights a match near the convention venue.

Bernie Sanders fans plan ‘worlds largest fart-in’ at DNC in protest of Hillary Clinton

“Supporters and delegates of Sanders plan to eat a ton of beans and pass gas simultaneously with Clinton’s acceptance speech if nominated at the DNC in Philadelphia.”

Yup, each north/south hemisphere has its own climate change. It’s confusing living on the equator I think. :-)

God giving delegates a foretaste of eternity?

Now if that Philly convention hall's air conditioning system should suffer a breakdown...

...that'd be awful, y'know?

Since John Kerry has now announced that air conditioners are worse than ISIS, I am counting on the DNC to do the right thing by turning off the AC for the duration of the convention.

I hope the DNC will support Sec State kerry’s battle against global warming and that he sees air conditioning as an equal or greater threat than ISIS by ordering the turning off of all the airconditioning units in the Philly convention center, to include the room that houses its computer servers. And all the hotels that lodge Democrapt delegates. Let them realize what the danger of too much heat is.
