Popular Post navypoppop Posted June 22 Popular Post Share Posted June 22 Good afternoon to everyone here on BMT. I just wanted to hope that everyone of you contributors and viewers take the necessary precautions during these super hot conditions we are experiencing. I am celebrating my 75th birthday inside our 5th wheel with my wife because it is too unbearable to be outside here in Savannah, Tn. I enjoy all of the posts, pictures and the comments from everyone and I hope to have many more years to enjoy BMT. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted Sunday at 01:56 PM Share Posted Sunday at 01:56 PM Now that we are on the subject, I thought I would add it was a brand new trailer so it really didn’t need anything. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the hot water tank was very small pretty much had to take a military shower otherwise the water would turn cold. But yeah, . It was pretty cool living arrangement. I really didn’t have a problem with it at all. Our neighbors are cool on both sides. I was working for nissens also was the same time blizzard of 78 Completely forgot about this my dad was stuck in the trailer park and I was stuck outside so I parked my pick up route one and my dad walked over huge snow bank and got in he was glad to get out of there and go have breakfast it and I walked over the snow bank and went to bed yeah I know it’s a old people story… bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjc transport Posted Monday at 08:43 AM Share Posted Monday at 08:43 AM 5 pm last night was 98degrees and over 80% humdidity here in central New Jersey. it was 79 when i looked at 4:30. i am not looking forward to being out in it today. good thing is i will be in the truck most of the day and it has very good AC system. rest of the week we are doing nights. to get away from the bulk of the heat. 1 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..

mowerman Posted Monday at 10:45 AM Share Posted Monday at 10:45 AM Sure comes in handy when boiling hot they just repaired mine for us second time my brand new truck. I used it all day long Friday and Thursday. My sister said it was pouring in Boston. I think maybe Friday possibly highwinds she called it a monsoon. Had to bundle up her a little dog with that raincoat because it was pouring so hard and I had to go outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Heinz Posted Monday at 11:40 AM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 11:40 AM Me and Joey are experiencing nearly the same weather, and I can assure you it still sucks even if you're a youngin like me. I've done very little and am already sweating like a preacher in a strip club, and the air is as heavy as Portland's skinniest feminist. I need to ask my granddad what he and his family did before they had AC, I genuinely wonder how farmers and laboring people didn't fall out more often than they did. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back then, we tried to do as much outside work as possible before the sun came up. Once the sun was up and it got hotter than granny's cookhouse in the summer we did barn work, or put a big sun shade over the tractor 2 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..

Joey Mack Posted Monday at 01:52 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:52 PM Hell at 6 this morning it was 85, and you could wear the air it was so thick.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOBWhite Posted Monday at 02:12 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:12 PM Supposed to get up to 100 here today. Hope it dries up most of the field so I can get into the field again, we got an inch and a half of rain last Saturday and that shut us down for a week. Hopefully I can get the rest of my wheat in by the end of the week. Hope everyone else stays safe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted Monday at 03:23 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:23 PM I spent Thursday - Saturday working our local truck show. It was like a blast furnace door was open. We had a sponsor give a whole pallet of water to give out during the show. We had 244 trucks show up. We have gone 350 on nice weather days. In all we all survived but it was brutal. https://www.ohvintrkreu.com/ 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

mowerman Posted Tuesday at 12:19 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:19 PM Yeah, Larry, there’s a such thing where is too hot I usually don’t complain about the heat at all but once in a while, it’s too hot for me …….. and 10-4 on the furnace… just about a heat wave everywhere. It’s hotter here right now than it’s supposed to be. You don’t get this kind of heat until August.. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted Tuesday at 02:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:01 PM Not me. I always complain about the heat.

mrsmackpaul Posted Wednesday at 09:07 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:07 AM Im sure it feels hot, but I guess it is all a matter of what we are used to Timothy Maikshilo (he's in Connecticut these days) laughs at me and my sooking over 0°C 32°f And yet I work all day at 40°C 104°f I reckon in 2022 we 46°C 112°f for a fortnight, that was hot enough, yet work went on All that been said, some ways to stay cool Mum always said when we were kids and couldn't sleep at night "sleep upside down in bed" as in head were your feet normally are meant to be It works even today Wet a small towel and hang it around your neck Take your shirt off and wet it Wear cotton, chuck that nylon T shirt away Most towns have outdoor pools in Australia Oh best of best, sitting under the garden sprinkler Ah summer time Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
