As much as i love summer and going to the beach and what not, I can't stand the heat, i'll only stay out for no more than a couple hours because of me being pale :ffs:


I keep cool with one of those mini fans you put around your neck and just hit the switch, i have two different ones. One is just a normal one and the other squirts water.


But usually i just jump in the water, be it a pool, etc.


When i'm not out i just turn my ceiling fan on, the house gets too hot and too cold very quickly so i avoid using the AC or heater.


What do you do to keep cool when the heat gets unbearable?


 
For me it has been Summer since March...now at May we have heat then rain...then heat....then rain....then a bright sun shining plus raining....then more heat then rain...

You get the idea :mokken:

But yeah, I am not much of a fan of pools either, so I also rely on the good ol' air conditioner :awesome:

But then it starts raining and feels like freezing :mokken:

I hate the weather...:rage:
 
It's summer where I am, both uni-wise and weather-wise.:rage: It got to 38 degrees Celsius here just now.

To cool down it's always just the air-conditioner for me. I'll have it on full blast if it's really, really hot. If I don't have access to it, I'll wash my face and my neck (or if I'm home, I'll just take a shower) and/or drink a tall, cold glass of water.

Sometimes I think I should've been born somewhere colder. I prefer the cold. :rage:
 
Its never unbearable here xD. Ive never lived where i am and felt that the heat was too much. Sometimes the house does get too hot. My mum is ALWAYS cold. So usually the heating is on full blast =[ I just make sure the radiator in my room is off and il open the window. I prefer too be too cold than too hot.
 
I don't have a pool or air conditioning so I usually just take lots of cold baths or showers when it's unbearably hot. I also have a fan but I don't use it that much.

I go to the beach a fair bit during summer. On really hot days I often go to the cinema/malls/anywhere with air conditioning. There is also an indoor Ice skating place around the corner from me which my dad used to take me to on hot days, I don't really go there anymore though. Occasionally on hot nights my friends and I will sometimes go to a certain high school which happens to have a pool.
 
On really hot days with is a rare occurence in England, I usually find myself sticking my head in the fridge. Honest. England is never really prepared for super hot weather, so air-con and what not is not really common, only in shops, so I just usually open all the windows in the house and cool off in the fridge. ;)
I do know that the game shop which is like 10 mins away from my house has the best air con ever. I just go sit in there for hours. Luckily I know the staff so I don't get kicked out for leeching their cold air. :3
 
Never really does get THAT hot here. xD

And I honestly prefer a rainy or snowy day over a melty summer one. Although I like springy weather, where it's nice and breezy to wobble about in a t-shirt, and not sweat out of your clothes while walking in the sun.

THAT, or just the typical dutchy weathery weather for me. ^^
 
Britain is rarely hot at all. Our interpretation of a "heatwave" is probably a normal everyday temperature for many other people. xD

Whenever it is really hot, I can't really do much about it. There's usually no need for the typical British household to have air conditioning anyway. I'd love to have a pool, but unfortunately my family aren't that rich. I do have a friend who has a pool in her house (lucky her! xD). I do occasionally visit her and play around in the pool in the summer.

I may perhaps take cold(ish) showers and as everyone have said, open up the windows and turn the fans on to maximum. I'm right next to the sea, so if I walk along the beachfront it's normally moderately cool there.
 
Insane as it sounds, I take a hot bath. It doesn't feel as hot after I get out.

I can't remember the last time I had to resort to doing that, though...quite often I just draw my curtains and have my window open, and have a small portable fan going on the chair next to me.

Although above around 20 degrees is too hot for me. I like it 10 and under. Heat means Sun, and I despise the Sun.
 
It gets up to 23 degrees Celsius where I live right now. To all you non-canadians or Europeans, that converts to 73.4 Fahrenheit. That's the most I ever like it to be.

In the summer it can get up to 35 Celsius. 35 C = 95 F. That's really hot and it's not fun.
 
It doesn't really get unbearable here, even though I do live in the bit of the UK that allegedly has the best weather :hmmm:
If I go on holiday to a hot country I just tend to go in the pool a lot and... well... wear less? I never wear skirts/shorts in the UK but I will if I go somewhere hot.
Those neck fans are useless I think, they just blow more hot air at me :wacky:
 
I guess I need to move to the UK, because it is always unbearably hot where I am here. In Florida the standard joke is that you get 10 months of summer and 2 months of fall during the year :jtc: This year has not been as bad up until recently, but this whole week the thermometer in my car has read between 92 and 97 degrees Fahrenheit :rage: And of course, that's when the AC always breaks, like it did at my work the other day >_> I could barely see straight, if the temperature gets above 80 I get lightheaded and dizzy. Anything above 70 is really too warm for me. But to stay cool, all we really can do is have the AC on full blast, drink tons of water, and eat cold foods like cereal or ice cream.
 
I can't stand the heat personally. I wish I could just skip the summer. During the summer, I always just use a fan and just munch on some ice cream. Either that or just take a cold shower, that helps alot as well. I usually use the A/C as a last option. Keep it on for too long and I will get too cold, defeating the purpose.
 
A fan and open windows and pray for a breeze! I dont like the heat, really dont. I remember few years ago in Bradford we had a hot bitch of a summer and staying cool was so difficult. I had my big fan and mini fan cooling down my PC. Ice pops and cold drinks were the only way to keep really cool. No bed sheets at night either and window kept open!
 
I noticed someone said to me once that 45 degrees wasn't classed as hot where they were.

45 degrees celsius = 113 degrees fahrenheit.

I don't think they measure their temperature the same way as we do here whoever it was I was speaking to at the time. >.<

Because 45 degrees celsius is hot. >.<

Click to expand...

Yeah, 'cause it's easier to warm up then cool down. Least, I think so... :hmmm:

Texas is weird :mokken: it feels like a desert sometimes >_< cold in the morning and at night but blazing hot during the day D=

I'm lucky though there's a local swiming area so if all else fails, I go to that :ryan: But then again, I hate public pool areas >_<

Summers on average is about 95 ferinheight frickin' hot as a mother mother.

But, i'm use to it. :monster:

Water balloon fights were fun when I was younger. Ice cream, snow cones you name it :ryan:
 
Word!
Even 2000km away in victoria it gets blistering hot!

Not that l care, heat is just another part of being in Australia, kinda like complaining about snow in antarctica, pointless. Its good winter is just around the corner l love a good storm of the Taman sea!
 
It's finally starting to get into that summer-like weather here in Connecticut. The nights and mornings can still dip down into the high 40's, so it's not quite summer yet. But it's certainly feeling like it more and more. :ryan:

In a few weeks or so, it should most certainly be feeling like summer. Last year, the weather never became overwhelming until August (my electric bill was really high that month :lew:). Then in September it was fall weather, which was a real drag. It was like a month and a half of legit summer weather, what a rip off. :mokken: Hopefully we'll get a lot of heat this year, I'm a big fan of hot weather. :ryan:
 
The heat doesn't really bother me unless it's over 100, tbh. :hmmm:

The Dallas area gets a few of those over 100 days during the summer but I remember last summer was mostly 90's. I have a/c in my car so it's not a big deal driving around. I don't mind being out in the heat for a few hours as long as I drink plenty of water. I don't swim so that's out of the question for cooling off. xD

If I'm at home and it gets too hot in the house, I'll turn the a/c on for a few hours to cool down.
