Just don't make the mistake I made last week when I forgot to let the water run a while before squirting myself with it. A water hose on the sunny side of the house gets extremely hot!
When I lived Back East, and I used to run for exercise, after runs on really hot days I'd turn the hose on myself, but I got the best relief from overheating by running the cool water on my head and the back of my neck.
