Look at this. The temp is no big deal, but look at that humidity. :mad: 61% Cripes!!! I practically need to ride with a wedge buster just to cut through the humidity.

85F with 57% here. Not bad at all.
Weather bug, eh? Did you pay for that malware or did you get it free somewhere?
Currently 79 degrees and 78% humidity. Dew point is 72 degrees... Ughhh

I had heard that Weatherbug got cleaned up and wasn't fully of the "spyware" crapola anywhere.
I'm not saying I'm willing to trust it...but I had heard that (from reputable sources).

It still hits hot on all the spyware, adware, malware programs. I wouldn't risk it.

OK....interesting to know. Like I said...that didn't mean I was trusting it...only that I hard heard it. I just run a quick check on www.wudnerground.com when I want a weather check.

Sounds like the same attitude I hear from people who don't run anti-virus software because they've never had a virus. :lol:
I wonder if OP is one of those too. :D
^^ Betcha if the ran an AV program, they'd find just how many they did have. :D

I don't usually run AV when using Windows, but I'll periodicly run a virus scan using Trend Micro's house call. Have yet to get a virus :p The rest of the time I'm on Linux, so no AV is needed :)
It was 84 degrees and 74% humidity yesterday when I rode. :rolleyes: Gotta love Nebraska.

I'm just play'n around. I run spyware programs on a weekly basis. I run ad-aware, and spybot at least once a week. Between the two I get most of the gunk. Plus, my work computer is set up to run weekly virus checks.
It's 82 degrees F here with 72% humidity. Apparently, it's going to get hotter. :eek:

Crap, I hate humidity and I'm coming to Omaha on Thursday.
Looks like the forecast says it'll be even hotter in a couple of days.

First pic in the shade, 3:30pm.
Second pic, minutes later, in full sun (and just for grins :D).
Not such an unreasonable day. Hot, for sure, but not particularly humid.

Waahhh!!!!
It's SOOOO HOT! It's SOOOOO HUMID!!!
Waahhh!!!!
Sweet Jeebus, people. It's like you just landed in the US.
It's August. It's supposed to be hot and humid.
Get a vodka & lemonade or a gin & tonic and forget those weather worries.
I can't wait until the middle of January when people start griping about how freakin' cold it is. Pansies.

You know, I'm always turned off by the thought of getting drunk when its hot as hell out. Then i get drunk anyways and the heat is the furthest thing from my mind.
Pansies should be planted in fall or early spring. Middle of January is asking for problems. And don't forget that pansies are nitrogen feeders and respond well to a top dressing of blood meal.

January is usually ok here. I was ridin' with long-sleeve T under a wind jacket and old sweat pants over my Lycra. It's the whole month of farkin' February that's brutal here....
I likes me my hot, humid NC summers. :) What can I say? First six years of my life, I lived in a house with no A/C.... ;)

Let see the weather today is what it was yesterday and always - low about 70, high about 82 to 85. Partially sunny with a possible heavy rain this afternoon or evening. Humidity, 70%.
Almost no wind but a little bit of a tropical breeze. Just enough to lightly swing the hammock... :D
88 degrees, 74% humidity, feels like 104 degrees. i cant wait to get home and plant some Pansies. later.

Who said anything about getting drunk?
Sippin' a glass of an ice cold beverage does not equate to getting drunk.
Heck, no need for the vodka in your lemonade. Or just have an iced tea. Or combine 'em and have an Arnold Palmer.
Mmmm.... summertime drinks....
Cold Riesling....
Ice-cold cans of junk beer....
A cold Coke right after you finish up mowing the yard....

I've found that the best blood meal comes from the veins of my vanquished foes. How about you?

I just tear off my enemies skulls and push a pansy seedling into each eye socket. Voila, INSTANT planter with more than a bit of panache!
