103-105* Heat index yesterday with so much humidity that I'm dripping after only 1-2 mins. of being out of the car on numerous calls / stops yesterday at work.

I HATE Summer time!!

We are currently in June-uary; lots of rain and this am when I came out of the house, it was 10c...

I suppose the rain is good for the reservoirs and keeping wild fires down, but 10c seven days before the longest day of the year...? WTF...

lol

Oh, I've been to FL many times. Hence why I could NEVER live there.

Most don't understand my situation. I come from a family of unfortunate hyper perspiration folks. All my co-workers always reference me when joking around due to the fact I can't go anywhere outside HQ or my patrol car without a sweat rag attached to my belt or in my hand. Now that I need glasses to basically see / read / write while getting info on calls for the reports, I can't even keep my glasses from being a mess and clean.

Unless you sweat like me, instead of just being "normal", nobody will ever understand. I literally HATE the heat / humidity. Almost worse than I hate criminals and these America hating Libs / Dems. I mean I HATE it!!

I'm a 65* - 35* weather kinda guy. Anything above 70* with a little humidity and I'm sweating... it SUX!!

I used to be like that, then by losing so much weight, I can sure handle the heat wayyyyyy better, that is, if we ever get any this year...

Bump in the road but nothing major. Right front was fine. Right rear……..

Discount Tire Manager thinks it’s a defect since the tread belts were fine.

Fingers crossed they help out.
If they dont call Michelin as they have their customer Promise Plan and will help you. They provide top level customer service.

Weight does make a difference for sure however, I was like this from a young boy, in my teens, into adulthood, and now in my early 50's.
I can't do anything to get away from it. Nothing works except two things.... LOTS of HVAC or the time from of approx. late November until approx. Mid March ish. (usually under 65* and dryer here).



Sorry for the derail and rant... I just despise the heat / humidity so much, it literally ruins have my year / life. I hate waking up knowing what's ahead. (I know that seems extreme, but sadly it's true).


Back to normal scheduled programming.

It definitely was very cool... but when you get to a certain minimalistic point, I think i'd rather just be on a superbike?
