It's getting hot out there...

[oakchas]

almost everywhere in the States... and it's been hot for a while... and may be so for a while yet...

Just something else to keep in mind in the current conditions... It really does apply to those of us who carry,too...

Tempers are a bit closer to the surface... It's not just road rage... it's sidewalk rage... A lot of folks are on edge....

Keep your temper "on ice." Don't overreact... I've seen a lot more road rage in the last week... I've even seen someone go ballistic (verbally) on the sidewalk against another pedestrian...



Oh, and without a sweat guard, your piece may stick to ya, if you carry IWB and especially tucked.

It's definitely 'Glock season' for me. My pretty iron is safely nestled in climate-controlled safes.

It's ALWAYS hot where I live. Every year, sooner or later, it becomes "Africa hot". And every year I complain about it like its never happened before. But I agree, for those who aren't used to it, be careful, it makes people crazy!

You betcha!

I went to the GSSF match in Indianapolis this weekend. We wanted to shoot in the cool of the morning. Ha! We were there three hours and I personally went through 1 liter of Gatorade and 5 liters of water.

"Hot" is not my favorite season!

3rd times a charm eh MrBuckwheat.

Been 110 plus most of the last 2 weeks here, got a dose of instant humidity SUnday morning. I despise the heat. 65 and cloudy/rainy is what I prefer.

Its kinda weird this year. It's the first summer I can remember that we've had more days under 100 than over.

Very mild summer in my neck of the woods. I guess the east stole our summer. Well, you're welcome to it!!!

[hogdaddy]

I can take the heat but not the humidity ; )

Now if those sidewalk pedestrians were out working in the fields I could understand them being upset with the heat

LOL @ Africa Heat.. I live in SC more than I do PA these days and it's always hot as hell here too. I also live in a tourist area, so it seems as if tempers are always flared for one reason or another but extremely hot days definitely brings it out even more..
