This is what it's been like riding in Vegas this summer...

I live in North Florida and my Garage will get up to 125 or 130 on really hot days, but I have never had that experience in my conditions. I do run a smaller warehouse type fan to keep the air moving and eliminate the humid air just sitting on things in the garage, but different conditions between Florida and Nevada for sure.

Man, I feel like that some times! So freaking hot. This time of year, I won't even ride in Vegas because I can't get there early enough. Hoping by September it might cool off enough I can do the Red Rock loop or Lake Mead loop in the morning.
I need to get some air movement in my garage. It has one west facing window that lets in afternoon sun and it can just get cooking in there.

But as for Florida, I have family on the west coast, around Ft. Myers. Actually going to be flying out there for a visit next week. Not looking forward to that humidity.

Get some tinted window film that also repels heat for that window. I put some on my living room window that faces south. It made a very noticeable difference.

This is the Fan I use....

Yea the humidity down there this time of year is brutal. We have gotten quite a bit a rain the couple of weeks where I live and my glasses immediately fog when I walk outside. Started raining about 3 pm and did not stop until 10 pm, which means its going to rain again tomorrow as all that moisture is just going back into the air when the sun comes out to play. My ride today was so hot and humid, my HR was up about 20 points so I cut it off a bit earlier than I wanted to.

I absolutely hate the humidity, and I grew up in the South. Funny story (kind of). I grew up in north Mississippi where it's hot and humid 6 months out of the year. I went into the military and got stationed in North Carolina. When I got there people warned me about how hot and humid it was. I scoffed, like it could be any hotter or more humid than Mississippi. It was. Then, I got stationed in Okinawa and people warned me about how hot and humid it was. I scoffed, like it could be any hotter and more humid than North Carolina. It was.

But I've lived in Nevada now for over 25 years. I do hate the summers, but I do not miss that humidity. When I go back to visit family, even in the winter months, I can feel that humidity and it's just oppressive to me.

Beat me to it. Ideal Gas Laws... it's like riding a bike, you never forget. :)

There was an article online today, Southwest Airlines is having problems with that, with the clickbait title of soda can bombs, IIRC. They don't serve food so don't have refrigerator trucks, so the sodas bake. They get put onboard and a lot are popping with the slightest bump. They say altitude is not a factor because pressurized cabin in flight, but I call bull on that because they are usually pressurized to 8000 ft equivalent, so greater pressure differential with the soda. So they are implementing procedures to prevent this.

You need a candy thermometer. It's what I use in the steam locomotive cab, because hardware store thermometers only go to 120.

I just use a common food pokey dial thermometer, not as good a resolution as it goes 0 to 220 F, but it works until I get something better. Easy to recalibrate if needed.
