like experiencing gravity on Venus
um, no. Venus experiences an atmospheric pressure 96 times that on Earth. We're talkin' 1440 lbs/square inch-- no even Hercules nor Titanium Man can overcome that level of pressure. Plus, the atmosphere below the toxic sulfuric acid cloud deck is 100% CO2-- doesn't warm a planet, according to many person's belief system. Try telling that to receptive Venusians who daily roast in a 900°F inferno.

this is no different than when a southerner visits the mountains and complains about the altitude
they get used to the altitude, I get used to the humidity

On the flip side, get a snowfall over 5 inches and the pussies in Louisiana are unable to drive or go anywhere.

Love hearing this from northerners that couldn't get anywhere without their trusty snowplowing.
Try driving in snow on roads that aren't salted or plowed.

Huh? People who have driven in snow their entire lives are generally gonna be better at it than those who never have.
When I was growing up the news would caution us to watch out for out of state plates.

Lived in So Cal for over 30 years.
Weather was nice and a lot of people that live there are not use to it.
My first house had a good view of my backyard and spent a lot of time outside.
Being from South Louisiana my first earthquake was an experience.

Do you change tires for the winter?

frick it. Show me a board where these people gather similar to here and I'll leave you all alone for a while. Not reddit, though.

There’s a big difference between experiencing humidity and acclimating to altitude.

I bet people up north get a kick out of the OT when it gets in the 20s and there are 14 threads on what to do with your pipes

I grew up and learned to drive in a snowy northern state. The roads in Louisiana are a different material and seem more slippery when wet than those up north. I’m completely comfortable driving in snow and have no desire to do it down here. It isn’t the same.

You adapt, but theres only so much the body can do at high elevation.
My blood O2 saturation is routinely in the 94-97% range and the doctors tell me thats great for living at 9600'.
And it takes damn near a month to really adapt properly. First few days takes the edge off at least but it takes longer to make those red blood cells to carry what little oxygen is there.
You never fully adapt though.

breaking news, a place that normally doesnt get very humid has a populace that is possibly a little more sensitive to it than the gulf
more on this as the story develops
Nah. More like a bunch of Kobe soft west coast bitches.

That statement is solid writing and absolutely hysterical.

When I was in Napa a few years ago, they shut down a rooftop restaurant for brunch because it was too humid. It was 78 degrees but felt like 82 and they had a bunch of tables with umbrellas up so it was shady. Nope, completely shut it down, closed for brunch due to humidity.

It’s surface air pressure like experiencing gravity on Venus,
"Venus is the virtual twin of Earth in many ways. Similar size, mass and density. But what is the gravity on Venus? According to our friends over at NASA, the answer is 8.87 m/s2. To translate that a little more, it is about 90% of the gravity here on Earth. A person who measures 100 kg when they leave home would tip the scales on the Venusian surface at 90 kg."
This sounds like the opposite of what they mean.
