They're delicious iced too!

Straight up it was almost 100°F for the later half of this week where I'm at and today is supposed to kiss 90°F today

I'm in the PNW, it's freaking September. I should be putting my AC away not choking on smoke while my AC blows for 20 hours of the day

Gotta love how our summers have become drought-ridden wildfire seasons while the rest of the country floods.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Not to mention the lack of bugs in our drought stricken smoke choked summers

Where are my things that crawl?

Where are my critters that skitter?

Where is the ever present thrum of tiny wings?

Growing up there were those little woolly bear caterpillars everywhere by this point, last year I saw 2 the whole fall.

Here in Wisconsin we had a heat index of over 100 for about a week not even 14 days ago and today the high was 65. I broke out the sweaters and fall gear today and it was a nice change of pace

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Here in San Diego, it's been miserable. We hit 85 yesterday, and are expecting 90° today

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

The local weather report for me is saying mid to upper 70s this week and a day it might rain

I'm freaking excited, I'm sick of this heat

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

High was 59 here in the Midwest. Pumpkin season

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Drink a second one for me friend

At this rate it won't even be sweater weather for me until October 😭

[–] GlendatheGayWitch@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Omg, that's basically how it's been in TX too. Just 3-5 degrees cooler up there. Y'all shouldn't be burning up like that

[–] Buttflapper@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Make it at home with ice. Super cheap materials. Pumpkin creamer, cold brew coffee, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin spice powder. Stevia.

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Stevia drops to make sure it mixes in well while cold.

it's never too hot for hot coffee

Engine room of an Iowa-class battleship. This is an oil-burning steam-powered ship. Men would stand at the burners, directly controlling them. Watches were 4 hours long. The room was a constant 140F. You wouldn't last long if you didn't stand directly under the outlet of a forced air ventilation duct. Right in the middle of the compartment within easy reach is a coffee pot.

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

yep. I used to work on a paving crew, you have to wear long pants & sleeves no matter how hot the weather because the mix is coming out of the truck at 300°F and you don't want any molten flecks getting on your skin. 75% of the crew has partially melted boot soles, but one of their wives just showed up with a box of joe in an insulated hot bag

[–] badbrainstorm@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Just melt down sugar and inject it. Or, freebase

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

just have it. this is the coldest summer of the rest of your life. even if it was just the hottest summer of our lives yet.

[–] Bruncvik@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

20C and sunny today, possibly the best beach day of the summer around here. And the local Starbucks had a sign up, saying that yhey ran out of pumpkin spice...

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

Stay strong.

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Tell that to my wife

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Sponsored by Starbucks

Keep that warm weather coming! Keep it coming as long as possible! I am not looking forward to another record cold winter.
