Be Careful

Omg !!! *%26amp;^%$拢$';!())(%26amp;^^^

Be Careful

Lookout for sunburnt sheffielder then lol after all this wet stuff

not long now :) tee hee hee up the blades:)T-2

Few years ago, when i was there in July, it was like 120, and from 12 noon to 6 PM, casinos were packed and the strip was half empty.

Stay inside, and be safe

and guess what not one person in Vegas will die from the heat, well unless someone leaves their kid in a car like seems to happen every summer.

Use common sense, dont go run a marathon at 3pm, it you feel overheated get out of the sun. If you dehyrate yourself with alcohol at night make sure you rehydrate yourself the next day with water, juice, etc. People here make a much bigger deal about the desert heat than should be made.

The heat is a big deal. It%26#39;s absolutely miserable and makes for a very unpleasant time if you happen to get stuck in it for too long. The lack of humidity does not make it any better, and everyone is still drenched in sweat (it does not evaporate immediately, as I%26#39;ve seen outrageously stated on here lately). Maybe no one will die, but I have seen plenty of people pass out when they%26#39;re not prepared for an unexpected delay or the long walk that looked a lot shorter than it is in this heat.

That said, these temperatures aren%26#39;t unusual. They hit those levels every year, but it is still the high end. Of course I%26#39;ll be in Laughlin where the heat will be even worse. Lucky me.

You are wrong, the lack of humidity absolutely makes it better. Humidity $ucks the moisture right out of your body. Add humidity to those temps and people would be in trouble.

midgetmama you live there and survive every year, as did I for 12 years that I lived there. Its hot but it doesnt make every one hole up inside for 3 months either. Its hot you deal with it.

You are right about Laughlin though. I sold Pharmaceuticals and had to go to the river, Getting back in a hot car after it sat for 30 minutes or so only to drive it down the block and do it all over again before it ever cooled back down was brutal. If its 115 in Vegas its 120 at the river.

The lack of humidity does not make it feel better. Right after stepping outside the heat burns, takes one%26#39;s breath away and creates an overall HORRIBLE feeling.

I do survive every year, but I only go outside for about 10 seconds at a time which is to walk from my air conditioned house to my air conditioned car. I don%26#39;t go anywhere other than work and yoga classes during the day, and the sun still $ucks the moisture out of my body each time I have to go out there. It is far more unpleasant than any humid situation I%26#39;ve ever been in which just feels gross.

I don%26#39;t know if you survived from some of your posts I think the heat got to you

I%26#39;m wit you GB. I lived in Phoenix with no A/C in my car and grew up in Va. Give me the desert anyday.

There%26#39;s nothing wrong with my posts. There%26#39;s a reason people who don%26#39;t want to deal with the stupid berating crap from regular posters constantly send me PMs with their questions.

Anyone who lived in Phoenix with no AC couldn%26#39;t have had his marbles to begin with (not that that%26#39;s any surprise).
