We have a heat index of 107 today. It's pretty cr*ppy out.Posted: July 27, 2005 12:58 pm
This southeast Georgia almost in FLA-REE- DUH... How do you think the weather is???... Just think of Robin Willians as Adrian Cronouer in "Good Morning Vietnam" giving a weather report from Rosevelt E. Roosevelt...It is so hot, I just saw a little guy in orange robes burst into flames! It is so hot I could do a little crotchpot cooking. It is HOT...IT IS DAMN HOT... But like I keep asking people what are you going to say in August?
I am not sure of the heat index here today, but I don't think it has been below 100 in a while....

On Letterman last night, the hottest spot they could find was at a local pool where the thermometer pegged at something like 130 degrees. What I'm wondering is, just how accurate is that and if it isaccurate, what would the temp be once the heat index is figured in?

When I posted about the reissue deal subsequent times, it was due to new research on other back catalogue situations, not to p*ss everyone off like you falsely interpret it to be. Not only that, but perhaps newbies that were not around the last time I posted could join and lend their voice. And, it’s not like I did it every day. What your doing is just being a pure tool and has no value but to just create a scene and p*ss us of. It’s not like I expect you to understand that though, cause no doubt you just won’t get it.RinglingRingling wrote:Truer words could not be spoken.... tho I doubt you'll see the irony in the source of the quote...

Frankly, I don't care one way or the other. I just find it humourous that out of all the topics you two could address, this is the one that makes you look like "one-trick ponies". It takes a lot more than you two blathering on about your pet projects to irritate me.
and as for the name-calling, one might take that as a sign of your own lack of maturity. Thus, y'all should perhaps practice what you preach, do that whole, "settin' an example" thing.

I know the desert floor can and will go above 130 F, as will surface temps asphalt, concrete/cement, metal....etc. I don't think I have never heard of actual air temps that high occuring naturally other than around volcanoes and geysers... at least in the States anyway.

it's hard to create a scene when your delivery is deadpan a la Steven Wright. As for the latter clause in that sentence, yeah, I guess I have to say that I do find that humourous. It appears you are the ones creating the scene.Parrot Monkey wrote:When I posted about the reissue deal subsequent times, it was due to new research on other back catalogue situations, not to p*ss everyone off like you falsely interpret it to be.

You say it all with your first statement. Maybe you don't care but what about all of the others that visit this site? Do you think for a minute they enjoy your constant complaining about matters you have absolutely NO control over? I know I don't. As for "pet projects", posting articles here is not a pet project. It is something I received permission to do years ago from the site owner himself so either get used to the fact that myself and others are going to continue to post them or shut up about it. Your constant complaining, humorous or not, doesn't help matters any, it just lends itself to all the bickering. Same goes for your and others' complaints about Parrot Monkey's Buffett Remasters project. He doesn't even have to say anything about it (like in this thread for instance) for one of you to bring it up and start crying about it. So, if your objective is for him to stop bringing it up, your posts are having the exact opposite effect.

I don't know what the formula is, to determine the actual heat index...but some sort of ratio between the humidity and temp and air density or something like that. I know that the temp is measured in the shade and the actual temp out in the sun is usually around 10 F hotter.

There's that selective memory thing again that seems to be so popular among some BN'ers. Peruse this web site (not just the Related Artists section) and you'll see I am not the only one that has posted articles. Lots of others have but you don't go complaining to them. And that's exactly what it is, it's not a matter of disagreeing, it's needless whining over and over and over again. If you disagree then you need to direct those comments to phjim, not me.

I know that the temp is measured in the shade and the actual temp out in the sun is usually around 10 F hotter.
Also, the difference in between the shade and being out in the sun varied by almost 20 degrees, at least in this instance.

I did say usually around 10 F.. 
Also the type of surface will cause temperature variations ....... such as cool deck around pools or if had been steel or asphalt or desert floor or even grass in one's yard, or what not.
What part of Carolina are you from? I have a sister near Wilmington....
