Olyman guy after my own heart, snow snow snow. Just talking to my son in Phoenix 100° and a light gentle rain. You know what they say about the desert it's a dry heat. Humidity must be 100%
ive been in Tulsa,ok, when it was 102. and 8% hum..and to tell the truth,,it didn't feel like it.......the low humidity did make a diff..far diff than iowa,,where the humidity will smack real close to 100% at times...thatll knock your socks off....
 
I have spent weeks in the Nevada deserts where the temps reached 120F during the mid day, always a wind blowing and dust in the air. Humidity below 10% all the time and I could work out in the open sun for 8 - 10 hour stretches with no difficulties. Just need to have plenty of water going in, none coming out other than through the pores, never felt wet or sweaty as the dry air absorbed all the liquids off the body immediately.Many around me suffered from heat stroke and needed hospitalization/IV`s for 6 - 8 hrs at a stretch, also vitamin B injections.
Found it much better to work all night, from sundown to 10 am was the best for outside work.
 
That is the MS 260 filter and plastic covers, they will fit on your saw and are a nice upgrade to the old 026. I just built 3 of them and used the sets from Huztl.
Jerry Ruthann had her Comp. hearing in Fall River this afternoon! Woman Judge ruled in her favor! Only took 45 minutes to do it! Attorney for her Hospital was BS!! The Judge that usually does these cases was sick and the woman Judge filled in. Guy is a real jerk according to her lawyer. Really lucky he was sick!! Anyway am really glad it's over! Been waiting for it since December!!
I guess the Hospital has to pay her back pay from Dec. 2nd to June 2nd then partial which her lawyer appealed! Hospital lawyer appealed the whole deal! But Ruthann's lawyer said it's routine today! Finally some good news!! Been a struggle!!

Finally, sounds like a little progress being made. Legal mumbo jumbo holds up so much progress these days, workers comp up here hopes you die before they have to make a payment to an injured worker.

Gets real hot in August!
 
Yep .....then it's 115 every day......with days to 117-120...different heat with zero humidity but stihl to damn hot for this Coast O' Mainah.......

Yep, didn`t know if I could stand it, don`t like heat much coming from up here but I found I did better than most guys in my camp. That included guys that live in Nevada just 40 miles from our camp. Had them tell me that I would kill myself carrying 100' coils of #4/0 we were burying to power our city block, 4 hot leads and one neutral running between each distro box X 10 boxes.

I've seen it so hot in Pheonix planes couldn't take off.
Tables didn't go that high.
